Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X130
The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X130 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø100mm bore, 130mm 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.

About the Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X130
The AirTAC SDAD100X130 is a double-acting compact cylinder featuring a 100mm bore and a 130mm stroke. Because the piston rod exits both ends of the riveted body, the annular area remains identical in both chambers. This geometry ensures push force equals pull force, delivering exactly 3524.9 N at 0.5 MPa in each direction.
A 32mm diameter through-rod resists twisting during heavy linear transfers. The short body footprint saves axial mounting depth compared to conventional round-body units. End-of-stroke energy is managed solely by a fixed NBR bumper, which decelerates the piston but is not an adjustable air cushion. This specific SKU lacks a piston magnet, so it cannot directly host magnetic switches.
Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X130 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X130 |
|---|---|
| Series | SDAD compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø100 mm |
| Stroke | 130 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, rod both ends |
| Port size | PT3/8 |
| Rod end thread | M18×1.5 female / M26×1.5 male (B) |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 500 mm/s |
| Cushion | Fixed NBR bumper (both ends) |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 120 mm |
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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X130 Is Used
Pallet Lifting Station
Raises heavy pallets vertically. The symmetric 3524.9 N force handles the load smoothly in both up and down directions without twisting.
Press Alignment Jig
Drives a guided press head. The 32mm through-rod prevents rotation during the 130mm travel, ensuring the tool face stays perfectly parallel to the workpiece.
Dual-End Ejector
Pushes a part out from one rod end while a mechanical dog triggers a limit switch on the opposite end, saving external sensor mounting space.
Is the Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X130 the Right Cylinder?
This 100mm bore generates 3524.9 N at 0.5 MPa. Stepping down, the SDAD80 provides 2267.8 N at the same pressure, making the SDAD100 the right choice when your load exceeds two thousand Newtons. The 130mm stroke is a nonstandard length exceeding the 120mm standard maximum, so verify your mounting envelope. The rod-end thread is female M18x1.5, with a PT3/8 air port.
The through-rod design prevents rotation and allows mounting a tool on one end while a dog rides the other. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve centers; the NBR bumper only decelerates near stroke end and acts as neither a lock nor a brake. For secure vertical load holding without live pressure, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Need equal force both directions?
- ✓ Anti-rotation / dual-end mounting?
- ✓ Space for a rod that exits both ends
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT)
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Leave clearance for the rod exiting both ends.
- check Avoid side load on either rod end.
- check Front/rear covers are riveted — do not dismantle.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X130 FAQ
The push and pull forces are equal because of the double-rod design. It outputs 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.
No, this specific SKU does not include a piston magnet. To use AirTAC reed or electronic switches, you must select the -S option code variant. The dual-end through-rod still allows mechanical dog triggering on the unused side.
