The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD63X110 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø63mm 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.
The AirTAC SDAD63X110 is a double-acting, double-rod compact cylinder featuring a 63mm bore and 110mm stroke. Because the piston rod exits both ends, the annular area remains identical in each chamber, delivering an equal push and pull force of 1401.5 N at 0.5 MPa. This symmetric thrust is perfect for balanced load handling.
The through-rod geometry inherently resists twisting, allowing you to mount a work tool on one end and a dog or switch on the opposite side. Its short riveted body saves axial mounting depth where larger profile cylinders fail to fit. End-of-stroke energy is managed by a fixed NBR bumper, which decelerates the piston but is not an adjustable air cushion.

|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |

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 | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1962 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 286 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.

| 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).
Drives opposing gripper jaws with identical 1401.5 N force in both directions, ensuring perfectly centered clamping on heavy automotive castings.
Raises and lowers a 71.4 kg machining fixture using the through-rod design to prevent platform twist during the 110mm vertical traverse.
Mounts a forming punch on the front rod and a position dog on the rear rod, exploiting the compact body to minimize axial footprint in tight cells.
When sizing this unit, consider the neighbouring bores: the SDAD50 provides 824.7 N at 0.5 MPa, while the SDAD80 offers 2267.8 N at 0.5 MPa. For this 63mm bore, a safe working load is approximately 841 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa figure), yielding a vertical lift capacity of roughly 71.4 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. This specific SKU lacks a piston magnet, so it cannot support magnetic sensing; adding the -S option enables reed or electronic switches.
Remember that a plain cylinder does not hold its load if air pressure drops or the valve is centred—the piston will drift. For load holding without live pressure, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. This model features a PT1/4 port, a 20mm rod diameter, and female M10x1.5 rod-end threads on both ends.
Quick checklist
The double-rod design provides equal force in both directions: 1401.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 1962.2 N at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum is 286 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not have a piston magnet. You must select the -S option variant to use AirTAC reed or electronic switches for position sensing.
