Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X90SB
The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X90SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø100mm bore, 90mm 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 SDAD100X90SB
The AirTAC SDAD100X90SB is a double-acting, double-rod compact cylinder engineered for heavy-duty symmetrical motion. Because the 32 mm through-rod occupies both chambers, the annular area remains identical in each direction, yielding exactly 3524.9 N of push and pull force at 0.5 MPa. This equal-force geometry prevents twisting during transit and allows you to mount a work tool on one end while tracking position with a switch on the opposite side.
Designed to save axial mounting depth, the riveted body houses a 90 mm stroke alongside a built-in magnet for AirTAC reed or electronic switches. End-of-stroke deceleration relies on a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion. This specific configuration includes male M26x1.5 piston rod threads on both ends and a PT3/8 air port to handle substantial pneumatic flow.
Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X90SB Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X90SB |
|---|---|
| Series | SDAD compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø100 mm |
| Stroke | 90 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 SDAD100X90SB Is Used
Heavy Press Tooling
Drives a forming die on one rod end while the opposite end triggers a reed or electronic switch, utilizing the 3524.9 N equal force for consistent bidirectional pressing.
Symmetric Lift Station
Raises and lowers a 179.7 kg vertical payload using the anti-rotation through-rod to prevent platform twisting during transit.
Riveted Body Assembly
Fits into shallow machine frames to actuate a heavy clamping jaw, taking advantage of the short axial depth and male M26x1.5 mounting threads.
Is the Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD100X90SB the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 100 mm bore unit, consider the SDAD80 which provides 2267.8 N at 0.5 MPa if your application requires less force. The SDAD100X90SB is the largest standard bore in the series, delivering 4934.8 N at 0.7 MPa and a theoretical maximum of 719 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Based on the 0.5 MPa figure, the safe working load is roughly 2115 N, allowing a vertical lift of approximately 179.7 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
The through-rod design provides excellent anti-rotation resistance and dual-end mounting flexibility. Remember that a standard cylinder does not hold position on air loss or valve centering; the piston will drift, and the fixed NBR bumper only decelerates near the stroke end. For load holding without live pressure, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. This model confirms a 100 mm bore, 90 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, built-in S magnet, and male B rod threads.
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 SDAD100X90SB FAQ
The double-rod design provides equal force in both directions: 3524.9 N at 0.5 MPa, 4934.8 N at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 719 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The 32 mm through-rod resists twisting under load and allows you to mount a tool on one end and a position dog on the other. It also includes a built-in magnet for AirTAC reed or electronic switches.
