The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X110SB 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 SDAD100X110SB is a double-acting, double-rod compact cylinder engineered for heavy-duty symmetrical motion. Because the 32 mm through-rod occupies both internal chambers, the effective annular area remains identical in both directions. This geometry yields an equal push and pull force of 3524.9 N at 0.5 MPa, ensuring perfectly balanced actuation for heavy payloads. The short riveted body drastically saves axial mounting depth where a larger profile cylinder would fail to fit.
This specific configuration includes a built-in piston magnet for AirTAC reed or electronic switches, plus male M26x1.5 rod threads on both ends. End-of-stroke deceleration relies on a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion. Operating pressure spans 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, and the piston speed ranges from 30 to 500 mm/s.

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.

Drives a 175 kg vertical lift platform. The equal 3524.9 N force both up and down prevents gravitational sag, while the male M26x1.5 rods secure heavy tooling flanges.
Powers a dual-jaw clamping mechanism. The through-rod geometry resists twisting under offset loads, maintaining precise parallel grip on large forged parts.
Mounts a pusher blade on one rod end and a magnetic dog on the opposite end. The 110 mm stroke transfers heavy pallets while tracking position via the built-in magnet.
When sizing this model, compare its 3524.9 N output at 0.5 MPa against the adjacent bore. Stepping down to the SDAD80 provides 2267.8 N, which may be insufficient for high-mass tooling, whereas the 100 mm bore offers a safe working load of roughly 2115 N (about 60% of its 0.5 MPa capacity) and a vertical lift capacity of approximately 179.7 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. The through-rod design resists twisting and allows mounting a tool on one end while tracking position with a switch on the opposite end.
Confirm the 100 mm bore, 110 mm stroke, and PT3/8 porting fit your envelope. The male M26x1.5 threads and built-in magnet are present per the SB option codes. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss or valve centring; the piston drifts and the fixed NBR bumper only decelerates near stroke end. For load holding without live pressure, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
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. The maximum operating pressure is 1.0 MPa, with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa.
Yes. The 32 mm through-rod exits both ends with male M26x1.5 threads, allowing you to mount a tool on one side and a dog for a reed or electronic switch on the other. The built-in magnet enables position sensing via standard AirTAC magnetic switches.
