Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X5B
The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X5B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø80mm bore, 5mm 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 SDAD80X5B
The AirTAC SDAD80X5B is a compact double-acting cylinder featuring a 5 mm stroke and a 80 mm bore. A piston rod extends from both ends of the riveted body, creating equal annular areas. This geometry ensures push and pull forces match exactly at 2267.8 N for 0.5 MPa, preventing asymmetric load behavior.
Equipped with male M22x1.5 threads on both rod ends, this unit drives tooling on one side while leaving the opposite end free for a dog or secondary mechanism. The short body saves axial depth, and end-of-stroke energy is absorbed by a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable cushion.
Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X5B Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X5B |
|---|---|
| Series | SDAD compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø80 mm |
| Stroke | 5 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 SDAD80X5B Is Used
Gripper Synchronization
Drives opposing gripper jaws with identical 2267.8 N force in both directions, ensuring perfectly centered clamping on heavy billets.
Short-Stroke Pressing
Executes 5 mm stamping or seating tasks where the male M22x1.5 rod ends mount custom tooling directly without extra adapters.
Dual-End Transfer
Pushes a part forward on one rod end while a dog fixed to the opposite rod triggers a mechanical latch for timed indexing.
Is the Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X5B the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 80 mm bore, the smaller SDAD63 yields 1401.5 N at 0.5 MPa, while the larger SDAD100 provides 3524.9 N. The 2267.8 N output of this model offers a safe working load around 1361 N, allowing a vertical lift of roughly 115.6 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
The through-rod resists twisting during operation. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, position sensing is unavailable. Note that the fixed NBR bumper decelerates the stroke but does not lock the piston; for load holding without air pressure, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
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 SDAD80X5B FAQ
The double-rod design provides equal force in both directions: 2267.8 N at 0.5 MPa, 3175 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical output of 463 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet option, so it cannot accept reed or electronic switches. You would need the -S variant for position sensing.
