The AirTAC SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD80X950S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 950mm 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 SAUD80X950S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A rod protrudes from both ends, meaning push and pull forces are identical at 2268 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel keeps the unit shorter than a standard ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. It features a 3/8 inch port and an M20x1.5 rod thread.
Because the second rod acts as an anti-rotation guide and can carry a switch cam, this model excels in synchronized tooling tasks. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is installed for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. A Viton H seal option can raise the operating temperature to 150 C.

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.

Drives two synchronized conveyor diverters at once from one piston, ensuring parallel package routing without skewing.
Holds parts flat during machining using the inherent anti-rotation resistance of the twin-rod assembly.
Uses the protruding back rod to physically trip a limit switch, confirming full extension before actuating the next station.
Choose this 80 mm bore when you need 2268 N of equal force in both directions over a 950 mm stroke. If your project requires less thrust, the 63 mm bore delivers 1402 N both ways; for heavier drives, the 100 mm bore provides 3681 N. This double-rod design is the right call when you need anti-twist guidance or twin tooling. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA, and LB styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. At 950 mm, the extended rod is prone to bending under side loads, so external guide rails are strongly advised. The -S magnet allows electronic position sensing.
Quick checklist
The force is equal both ways because a rod exits both ends. It outputs 2268 N at 0.5 MPa, 3175 N at 0.7 MPa, and 4082 N at 0.9 MPa in both extend and retract directions. The air port is 3/8 inch.
No, a plain cylinder drifts without live air. The adjustable 28 mm cushions only decelerate the piston near the end caps. To hold a load vertically, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
