The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X110 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø100mm bore, 110mm stroke). The through-rod resists twisting and lets you drive a tool on one end while a switch or dog reads position on the other — with identical force in both directions.
The AirTAC SDAD100X110 is a double-acting compact cylinder featuring a through-rod that exits both ends of the riveted body. Because the rod occupies both chambers, the annular area is identical in each direction, yielding equal push and pull forces of 3524.9 N at 0.5 MPa. This symmetry is crucial for handling heavy loads without inducing uneven wear.
A 32 mm rod resists twisting during high-tonnage cycles, while the short body saves axial mounting depth compared to conventional round-body units. End-of-stroke energy is managed by a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion. Note this specific SKU lacks a piston magnet, so position sensing is not supported without the -S variant.

Because a rod occupies both cylinder chambers, the effective area — and therefore the force — is identical in both directions. Specifications follow the official AirTAC SDAD datasheet.
| Pressure | Force (both directions) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3525 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 4935 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 719 kgf |
Force uses the annular (rod-side) area on both strokes, so extend and retract match. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction. Size with a safety margin.

| ×110 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Built-in magnet for magnetic-switch sensing (omit = none). |

Raises loaded pallets in compact transfer stations where the equal 3524.9 N push and pull forces prevent asymmetric sagging during vertical actuation.
Drives a lower die platen while a top guide travels on the opposite rod end, using the 32 mm through-rod to resist twisting under high offset loads.
Ejects heavy cast parts from a mold on one side while a mechanical dog trips an external limit switch on the other, saving axial bay space.
When sizing this unit, compare its 3524.9 N output at 0.5 MPa against the smaller SDAD80, which provides 2267.8 N. If your application requires less force, stepping down saves space; if you need maximum thrust within the 100 mm frame, this model supports a safe working load of roughly 2115 N, assuming a 60% derating of the 0.5 MPa figure. Vertically, it can lift approximately 179.7 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
The through-rod design prevents rotation and allows tooling on one end with a dog on the opposite side. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve centers—the fixed bumper only decelerates near stroke end and will not hold the load. For secure holding, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. This configuration specifies a 100 mm bore, 110 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, female M18x1.5 rod threads, and no magnet.
Quick checklist
The double-rod design provides equal force in both directions: 3524.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 4934.8 N at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum is 719 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure ranges from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa.
Yes, the through-rod exits both ends, allowing you to drive a tool on one side while using the opposite end for external dog or switch actuation. However, this specific SKU has no internal magnet, so it cannot trigger AirTAC reed or electronic switches directly; you would need the -S variant for internal magnetic sensing.
