Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X100B
The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X100B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø80mm bore, 100mm 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 SDAD80X100B
The AirTAC SDAD80X100B is a double-acting, double-rod compact cylinder featuring a 80mm bore and 100mm stroke. Because the piston rod exits both ends, the annular area remains identical in each chamber, ensuring push force equals pull force at 2267.8 N for 0.5 MPa. This symmetric thrust is ideal for balanced actuation tasks.
This specific SKU includes male M22x1.5 threads on both rod ends, allowing direct mounting of tooling on opposite sides. The short riveted body minimizes axial footprint compared to conventional round-body units. End-stop deceleration relies strictly on a fixed NBR bumper, which absorbs shock but is not an adjustable air cushion. Note that this variant lacks a piston magnet, so position sensing is not supported without the -S option.
Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X100B Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X100B |
|---|---|
| Series | SDAD compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø80 mm |
| Stroke | 100 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, rod both ends |
| Port size | PT3/8 |
| Rod end thread | M14×1.5 female / M22×1.5 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 (Ø80mm)
| Pressure | Force (both directions) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3175 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 463 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 SDAD80X100B Is Used
Web Tensioning Jaws
Utilizes the equal 2267.8 N bidirectional force to grip and release material webs uniformly without skewing, while the male M22x1.5 ends mount opposing guide rollers.
Symmetric Lift Stations
Exploits the anti-rotation through-rod to lift heavy platens vertically, maintaining parallel alignment under a 115.6 kg payload with a 2:1 safety margin.
Dual-End Transfer Arms
Mounts a pusher on one end and a mechanical dog on the opposite end, leveraging the 100mm stroke to shuttle parts between conveyor lanes simultaneously.
Is the Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X100B the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this unit, consider the neighboring bores: stepping down to the SDAD63 yields 1401.5 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the SDAD100 provides 3524.9 N. The 80mm bore offers a safe working load of roughly 1361 N, assuming a 60 percent derating of the 0.5 MPa output, translating to a vertical lift capacity of about 115.6 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
The through-rod geometry prevents twisting during operation and permits driving a secondary mechanism on the opposing end. Remember that a standard cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve centers, as the NBR bumper only decelerates near stroke end and acts as neither a lock nor a brake. For load holding without live pressure, integrate an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. This configuration confirms an 80mm bore, 100mm stroke, PT3/8 port, male M22x1.5 rod threads, and no magnet.
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 SDAD80X100B FAQ
The push and pull forces are identical due to the double-rod design. It generates 2267.8 N at 0.5 MPa, 3175 N at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 463 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The maximum operating pressure is 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the through-rod extends from both sides, allowing you to drive a tool on one end while using the other for a secondary mechanism. This specific B-code variant features male M22x1.5 threads on both ends to facilitate dual-end mounting.
