The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD63X110B 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 SDAD63X110B 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 each direction, meaning push force equals pull force at 1401.5 N under 0.5 MPa. This symmetric thrust is a major advantage for loads requiring perfectly balanced bidirectional driving.
This specific configuration features male M18x1.5 thread on both 20 mm rod ends, allowing direct mechanical fastening on opposing sides. The short body design saves axial mounting depth compared to traditional round-body units. End-of-stroke deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion.

| 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) |

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.

| ×110 | 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).
Uses the dual male M18x1.5 rod ends to tension and steer material equally in both directions, relying on the 1401.5 N symmetric thrust to prevent tracking drift.
Raises and lowers a 71.4 kg platen vertically. The through-rod resists twisting during the 110 mm travel, maintaining precise vertical alignment without side play.
Shuttles components between two processing stations. Equal force on extend and retract ensures consistent acceleration profiles across the 110 mm stroke.
When sizing this actuator, the 63 mm bore yields 1401.5 N at 0.5 MPa. Stepping down, the SDAD50 provides 824.7 N, while stepping up to the SDAD80 offers 2267.8 N. For your calculations, a safe working load is roughly 841 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa figure), allowing a vertical lift of approximately 71.4 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
The through-rod geometry resists twisting and lets you mount a tool on one end and a dog on the opposite side. Note that this SKU lacks the -S magnet, so magnetic switches cannot be used. Furthermore, a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve centers; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for load holding.
Quick checklist
Because the double-rod design provides equal annular area on both sides, the push and pull forces are identical: 1401.5 N at 0.5 MPa, 1962.2 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical output of 286 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the through-rod exits both ends with male M18x1.5 threads, allowing you to drive a tool on one side while mounting a dog or fixture on the other. The continuous rod also provides inherent anti-rotation resistance.
