Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD32X30SB
The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD32X30SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø32mm bore, 30mm 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 SDAD32X30SB
The AirTAC SDAD32X30SB is a double-acting compact cylinder featuring a 32 mm bore and a 30 mm stroke. Because the piston rod extends from both ends, the annular area remains identical in both chambers. This geometry ensures push and pull forces match exactly, providing 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa in either direction. The through-rod design inherently resists twisting, which is crucial for maintaining alignment in precision tooling.
This specific configuration includes a built-in magnet for position sensing and male M10x1.25 threads on both rod ends. The short riveted body minimizes axial mounting depth, fitting easily into tight machinery layouts. End-of-stroke deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR bumper, which absorbs shock without requiring manual adjustment. Operating speed ranges from 30 to 500 mm/s.
Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD32X30SB Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD32X30SB |
|---|---|
| Series | SDAD compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 30 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, rod both ends |
| Port size | PT1/8 |
| Rod end thread | M6×1.0 female / M10×1.25 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 (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Force (both directions) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 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 SDAD32X30SB Is Used
Symmetric Transfer Arms
Drives a pickup arm on one end while the opposite rod end mounts a dog for position sensing, utilizing the 345.6 N equal force to prevent sagging during bidirectional transfers.
Anti-Rotation Grippers
The through-rod geometry resists twisting moments, keeping a precision grip aligned during clamping operations where side loads would normally skew a single-rod actuator.
Dual-End Pin Insertion
Mounts an insertion tool on one male M10x1.25 threaded end and a counterweight on the other, maintaining consistent 30 mm strokes for electronic component assembly.
Is the Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD32X30SB the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this unit, consider the neighboring bores for your force requirements. Stepping down, the SDAD25 provides 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the SDAD40 yields 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa. The 32 mm bore offers a calculated safe working load of roughly 207 N, or about 60 percent of its 0.5 MPa rating, allowing a vertical lift of approximately 17.6 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
This model features a PT1/8 air port and a 12 mm rod diameter on both ends. The male M10x1.25 rod threads simplify mounting external fixtures directly to the piston. Remember that the fixed NBR bumper only decelerates the stroke near the end points; it will not hold a load if air pressure drops. For load holding without live pressure, integrate 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 SDAD32X30SB FAQ
The double-rod design provides equal force in both directions: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum output is 70 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes. The S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet compatible with AirTAC reed or electronic switches. The B suffix means both rod ends feature male M10x1.25 threads for direct tool mounting.
