The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD32X75S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø32mm bore, 75mm 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 SDAD32X75S is a double-acting compact cylinder featuring a through-rod that exits both ends of the riveted body. Because the rod occupies both chambers, the annular area is identical in both directions, delivering an equal push and pull force of 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa. This symmetric thrust is a major advantage when driving loads that require consistent resistance on extend and retract strokes.
This 32 mm bore model uses a 12 mm piston rod and a PT1/8 air port. The short riveted body saves axial mounting depth where a larger profile cylinder will not fit. A fixed NBR bumper at each end decelerates the stroke end, and the included S magnet enables position sensing with AirTAC reed or electronic switches. Operating speed ranges from 30-500 mm/s.

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.

Uses the equal 345.6 N force both ways to drive symmetric clamping jaws without twist, ensuring parallel gripping of delicate electronic components.
Mounts a pusher plate on one rod end and a dog on the opposite end to trigger a reed switch, saving axial space in conveyor sorting modules.
Lifts a 17.6 kg diverter gate with a 2:1 safety margin, relying on the through-rod geometry to prevent binding during vertical actuation.
When sizing this model, compare it with its neighbours: the SDAD25 provides 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa, while the SDAD40 offers 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa. The SDAD32X75S provides a safe working load of roughly 207 N, which is about 60% of its 345.6 N capacity at 0.5 MPa. This translates to a vertical lift capability of approximately 17.6 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
The through-rod resists twisting and lets you mount a tool on one end and a dog on the opposite end. This configuration includes the S magnet for sensing and female M6x1.0 rod-end threads. Remember that a plain cylinder does not hold its load if air is lost or the valve is centred; the piston drifts and the fixed bumper only decelerates near stroke end. For load holding without live pressure, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
The push and pull forces are equal because the rod exits both ends. It generates 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, with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa.
No, the piston will drift if air is lost or the valve is centred. The fixed NBR bumper only decelerates the stroke near the end and does not act as a lock. For load holding, you need an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
