The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X45 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø80mm bore, 45mm 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 SDAD80X45 is a compact double-acting 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, giving you exactly 2267.8 N of push and pull force at 0.5 MPa. This symmetry prevents twisting and simplifies balancing for heavy loads.
Designed to save axial mounting depth, this 80mm bore unit uses a PT3/8 port and a 25mm rod. It hits a 45mm stroke with a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate impact. Note this SKU lacks a piston magnet, so it cannot host reed or electronic switches without the -S option.

| Series | SDAD compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø80 mm |
| Stroke | 45 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). |

Drives a lifting platform where equal 2267.8 N push and pull forces prevent sagging on the return stroke.
Handles a 45mm clamping stroke where the dual 25mm rods resist twisting under offset loads.
Mounts a forming die on one end while the opposite rod side drives a mechanical ejector simultaneously.
When sizing this model, consider the SDAD63 which provides 1401.5 N at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the SDAD100 yielding 3524.9 N at 0.5 MPa. The SDAD80X45 strikes a middle ground, offering a safe working load of roughly 1361 N for a 2:1 safety factor, translating to a vertical lift capacity around 115.6 kg.
The through-rod geometry allows mounting a tool on one end and a dog on the opposite side. Remember that a standard cylinder drifts when air is removed or a valve centers; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for load holding. This configuration confirms an 80mm bore, 45mm stroke, female M14x1.5 rod threads, and no magnet.
Quick checklist
The push and pull forces are equal because of the double-rod design. It generates 2267.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 3175 N at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum is 463 kgf at 1.0 MPa, with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa.
Only if you select the -S magnet option. This specific SDAD80X45 SKU has no internal piston magnet, meaning it cannot trigger AirTAC reed or electronic switches. The through-rod does allow external mechanical tracking via a dog on the opposite end.
