Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD50X110
The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD50X110 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø50mm bore, 110mm 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 SDAD50X110
The AirTAC SDAD50X110 is a compact double-acting cylinder featuring a through-rod that exits both ends of the riveted body. Because the piston rod occupies both chambers, the annular area remains identical in either direction, yielding an equal push and pull force of 824.7 N at 0.5 MPa. This symmetric output is highly advantageous when driving loads that require consistent momentum control in both travel directions.
This specific 50 mm bore variant utilizes a 20 mm rod and a PT1/4 port, operating seamlessly between 30 and 500 mm/s. The short body design drastically reduces axial mounting depth compared to traditional round-body units. End-of-stroke deceleration is handled solely by fixed NBR bumpers, which absorb shock without the complexity of adjustable air cushions. Note that this base SKU lacks a piston magnet, so position sensing is not supported without upgrading to an -S variant.
Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD50X110 Technical Specifications

| Acting type | Double acting, rod both ends |
| Port size | PT1/4 |
| Rod end thread | M10×1.5 female / M18×1.5 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 (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Force (both directions) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1155 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 168 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 SDAD50X110 Is Used
Symmetric Lift Stations
Provides 824.7 N of equal force in both directions to raise and lower 42 kg vertical platforms smoothly without twisting.
Dual-End Transfer
Mounts a pusher plate on one rod end and a cam dog on the other to actuate external limit valves during the 110 mm traverse.
Anti-Rotation Clamping
The fixed 20 mm through-rod resists torsional deflection, ensuring precision when clamping irregularly shaped metal parts.
Is the Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD50X110 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this unit, evaluate your force requirements against its neighboring bores. Stepping down to the SDAD40 provides 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the SDAD63 yields 1401.5 N at 0.5 MPa. The 50 mm bore offers a computed safe working load of roughly 495 N, which translates to a vertical lift capacity of about 42 kg when applying a 2:1 safety margin. This makes it a robust middle ground for moderate payload manipulation.
The through-rod geometry inherently resists twisting, allowing you to mount a tool on one end and a dog or fixture on the opposite side simultaneously. Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder cannot hold a load if air pressure drops or the valve centers; the piston will drift. For load-holding security, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Confirm your build requires female M10x1.5 rod-end threads on both sides and a 110 mm stroke before ordering.
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 SDAD50X110 FAQ
The double-rod design provides equal force in both directions: 824.7 N at 0.5 MPa and 1154.5 N at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum is 168 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure ranges from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a piston magnet. To use AirTAC reed or electronic switches, you must select the SDAD50X110S variant. The through-rod still allows dual-end mounting for mechanical dogs or external sensors.
