Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD80X5
The AirTAC SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD80X5 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 5mm 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.

About the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD80X5
The AirTAC SAUD80X5 is a double-acting double-rod profile cylinder with a 5 mm stroke. A 25 mm rod exits both ends of the hard-anodized aluminum barrel, meaning both faces use the rod-side area. Output is equal both ways at 2268 N each direction at 0.5 MPa. The 3/8 inch port feeds this 80 mm bore unit.
This profile body is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same size. Because the rear rod protrudes, it can drive twin tools or trip an external switch. Without the -S magnet option, this SKU cannot take a magnetic sensor.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø80mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2268 N | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3175 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 463 kgf | |
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.

Where the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD80X5 Is Used
Twin Tool Stamping
Drives two small forming punches simultaneously from opposite rod ends, ensuring perfectly synchronized striking force of 2268 N on a compact 5 mm stroke.
Short Stroke Clamping
Provides rigid, non-rotating clamping of heavy plate stock where the equal push and pull force guarantees consistent grip pressure during machining.
Mechanical Cam Tripping
Uses the extended rear rod to physically trip a limit switch at the end of travel, ideal for environments where magnetic sensors are unsuitable.
Is the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD80X5 the Right Cylinder?
For lower force needs, the 63 mm bore provides 1402 N both ways. For higher demands, the 100 mm bore offers 3681 N. Choose this double-rod model when you need anti-rotation guidance, twin tooling, or a back-end cam. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA, and LB types, matching the AirTAC SC series. Since the 5 mm stroke is very short, side-load guide concerns are minimal, but always ensure external guides carry any heavy attached tooling.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB — same as SC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD80X5 FAQ
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the force is equal in both directions: 2268 N at 0.5 MPa, 3175 N at 0.7 MPa, and 4082 N at 0.9 MPa. The 80 mm bore uses a 3/8 inch port.
No. The air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends; they do not act as a brake. If you need to hold a load on air loss, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
