Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD32X45S
The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD32X45S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø32mm bore, 45mm 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 SDAD32X45S
The AirTAC SDAD32X45S is a compact double-acting cylinder featuring a 32 mm bore and a 45 mm stroke. Because the 12 mm piston rod exits both ends of the riveted body, the annular area remains identical in each chamber. This geometry ensures push and pull forces match exactly at 345.6 N under 0.5 MPa, delivering a safe working load of roughly 207 N for reliable symmetric operation.
Measuring a short axial depth, this space-saving unit integrates a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke. Equipped with a built-in magnet, it supports AirTAC reed or electronic switches for position feedback. The PT1/8 port and female M6x1.0 rod-end threads simplify installation in tight machinery layouts.
Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD32X45S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD32X45S |
|---|---|
| Series | SDAD compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 45 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 SDAD32X45S Is Used
Gripper Actuation
Drives an end-effector with equal 345.6 N force extending and retracting, ensuring balanced clamping pressure on delicate components.
Web Guiding
Uses the twin-rod anti-rotation feature to keep a paper or foil tracking roller perfectly parallel without twisting during 45 mm shifts.
Lift and Transfer
Lifts a 17.6 kg payload vertically with a 2:1 safety margin, using the opposing rod end to trigger a reed or electronic switch.
Is the Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD32X45S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this unit, compare its 345.6 N output at 0.5 MPa against neighboring bores. Stepping down, the SDAD25 provides 206.2 N, while moving up to the SDAD40 yields 527.8 N. If your application requires a 2:1 safety margin, this 32 mm bore achieves a vertical lift capacity of approximately 17.6 kg.
The through-rod design resists twisting and permits mounting a tool on one end while tracking position with a switch on the opposite side. Note that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve centers; the fixed bumper only decelerates near stroke end. For secure load holding without live pressure, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. This configuration includes the S magnet and female M6x1.0 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 SDAD32X45S FAQ
Because the rod occupies both chambers, force is equal in both directions: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum is 70 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 design allows you to drive a tool on one side while mounting a dog or switch on the opposite end. This specific model includes the S magnet for AirTAC reed or electronic switches. The fixed NBR bumper decelerates the stroke end but does not lock the load.
