The AirTAC SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD80X165S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 165mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its hard-anodized aluminum-profile barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, and it shares SC-series mounting accessories.
The AirTAC SAUD80X165S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A 25mm rod exits both ends of the hard-anodized aluminum barrel, meaning both faces use the rod-side area. Output is equal in both directions at 2268 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded profile body is noticeably shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 80mm bore.
Because the stroke is 165mm, side-load risks are low, but external guides remain best practice for rigid twin-tool setups. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches. The 3/8 inch port and M20x1.5 rod thread match the 80mm bore standard.

Double-rod model: the rod passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area and push is shown at the annular-area value. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Related SAU-family variants: SAUD (double rod), SAUJ (adjustable stroke), SAUF (with built-in solenoid valve), and SAU-S with built-in magnet. Seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N. Sensor switches: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG.
Drives two synchronized forming tools from one piston, using the equal both-ways force to punch and retract identically.
Shifts parts across a belt using both rod ends simultaneously, keeping the motion balanced without twisting.
Uses the extended back rod as a switch cam to trip external sensors at mid-stroke for high-speed diverting.
Select this 80mm bore model when your mechanism requires true equal push and pull force, such as anti-rotation guidance or driving two tools at once. If you need less force, the 63mm bore provides 1402 N both ways; if you need more, the 100mm bore yields 3681 N both ways. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, sharing compatibility with the AirTAC SC series. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is already included for position sensing. For any stroke at or above 300mm, add external load guides to prevent rod binding.
Quick checklist
The force is equal both ways because it is a double-rod cylinder. It outputs 2268 N at 0.5 MPa, 3175 N at 0.7 MPa, and 4082 N at 0.9 MPa. The 3/8 inch port feeds both chambers equally.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder drifts without live air. The adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends. To hold a load, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
