The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD32X65B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø32mm bore, 65mm 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 SDAD32X65B is a double-acting compact cylinder featuring a 32 mm bore and a 65 mm stroke. Its defining trait is the through-rod design that exits both ends of the riveted body, yielding identical annular areas. Consequently, push and pull forces match exactly at 345.6 N each way under 0.5 MPa. This symmetry is vital for applications demanding consistent motion resistance in both directions.
Equipped with male M10x1.25 rod threads on both ends, this unit allows direct mounting of tooling at either extremity. The 12 mm rod diameter provides robust rigidity while the short body profile minimizes axial footprint. End-of-stroke deceleration relies on fixed NBR bumpers rather than adjustable cushions, keeping the overall length exceptionally short.

|---|---|
| Series | SDAD compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 65 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.
| 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.

| ×65 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Built-in magnet for magnetic-switch sensing (omit = none). |

Thread: PT standard. Related SDA-family variants: SDA (single rod), SSA/STA (single acting), SDAJ (adjustable stroke), SDAT (duplex), SDAW (duplex-end).
Delivers 345.6 N of equal clamping and release force at 0.5 MPa, ensuring workpieces experience uniform pressure during machining operations.
The dual 12 mm through-rods resist rotational torque, maintaining precise alignment for pick-and-place heads carrying offset loads.
Male M10x1.25 threads on both ends allow simultaneous operation of two separate mechanisms, such as forming on one side and ejecting on the other.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, compare its 345.6 N output at 0.5 MPa against adjacent models. Dropping down to the SDAD25 provides 206.2 N, whereas stepping up to the SDAD40 yields 527.8 N. The 32 mm bore hits a balanced middle ground for moderate load manipulation. The through-rod geometry prevents torsional twisting and permits driving a mechanism on one end while leaving the opposite end free for a mechanical dog.
This specific SKU omits the piston magnet, so position sensing is not supported without switching to the -S variant. Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve centers; the NBR bumper only softens the impact near stroke end. For load holding without live pressure, integrate an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. Operating speed spans 30-500 mm/s, and the PT1/8 port feeds the chamber efficiently.
Quick checklist
The double-rod design provides equal force in both directions: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical output of 70 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the -B option provides male M10x1.25 threads on the 12 mm rods exiting both ends, allowing you to drive a tool on one side and a dog or secondary mechanism on the other.
