The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X35S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø80mm bore, 35mm 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 SDAD80X35S is a compact double-acting cylinder featuring a 25 mm piston rod exiting both ends of its riveted body. Because a rod occupies each chamber, the annular area is identical on extend and retract, yielding equal push and pull force of 2267.8 N at 0.5 MPa. This symmetric thrust is highly advantageous for loads requiring consistent kinetic energy in both directions.
The integrated through-rod geometry resists twisting, providing inherent anti-rotation stability without external guides. A built-in magnet (-S) enables position detection using AirTAC reed or electronic switches fitted into the body grooves. End-of-stroke deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR bumper, and the short axial footprint saves valuable mounting depth compared to conventional cylinders.

| Series | SDAD compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø80 mm |
| Stroke | 35 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.
| 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.

| 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 a vertical lift platform requiring identical 2267.8 N push and pull force to smoothly raise and lower a 115 kg workpiece without twisting.
Uses the through-rod to push a part on one end while a magnetic switch tracks the opposite end, coordinating a 35 mm transfer stroke.
Holds a precision straightening head steady against lateral torque, leveraging the dual 25 mm rods to prevent deflection during pressing.
When sizing this model, evaluate the neighboring bores: the SDAD63 provides 1401.5 N at 0.5 MPa, while the SDAD100 delivers 3524.9 N. The SDAD80X35S provides a safe working load of roughly 1361 N, allowing a vertical lift of about 115.6 kg with a 2:1 margin. Choose the 80 mm bore if your application requires substantial symmetric force within a shorter envelope.
This configuration includes a 35 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and female M14x1.5 rod-end threads on both ends. The through-rod allows driving a tool on one side while mounting a switch dog on the opposite end. Note that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve centers; the fixed bumper only decelerates near stroke end. For secure load holding without live pressure, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the force is equal in both directions: 2267.8 N at 0.5 MPa, 3175 N at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 463 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the through-rod design allows you to mount a tool on one end and a dog for a reed or electronic switch on the other. The -S magnet enables this position sensing.
