The AirTAC Airtac SDAD Double Rod Slim Cylinder SDAD80X75S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends (Ø80mm bore, 75mm 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 SDAD80X75S is a compact double-acting cylinder featuring a through-rod that exits both ends of the riveted body. Because the piston rod occupies each chamber equally, the annular area remains constant, delivering identical push and pull thrust of 2267.8 N at 0.5 MPa. This symmetric force is essential when driving rigid loads that must not skew during direction reversal.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (-S), this 80mm bore unit accepts AirTAC reed or electronic switches directly in the body grooves. The 25mm rod diameter and PT3/8 port handle substantial airflow, while the short profile saves axial mounting depth. End-of-stroke deceleration relies on a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion.

| 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 | 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.

Drives a vertical lifting stage where equal 2267.8 N push and pull forces prevent binding, while the dual-end rod supports a guided carriage.
Clamps a heavy workpiece with one rod end while the opposite end triggers an electronic switch, leveraging the anti-rotation through-rod for rigid holding.
Actuates a heavy diverter gate on a packaging line, using the compact riveted body to fit within tight conveyor frame clearances.
When sizing this model, compare its 2267.8 N thrust at 0.5 MPa against adjacent bores. Dropping down to the SDAD63 yields 1401.5 N, whereas stepping up to the massive SDAD100 provides 3524.9 N. Based on the 2267.8 N figure, a safe working load is roughly 1361 N (60 percent capacity), translating to a vertical lift capability of about 115.6 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
The through-rod geometry prevents twisting and permits mounting a tool on one end with a position dog on the opposite side. Remember that a standard cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve centers; the NBR bumper only decelerates the stroke end and will not hold the load. For secure positioning, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. This configuration includes the S magnet and female M14x1.5 rod threads.
Quick checklist
The double-rod design provides equal force in both directions: 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.
Yes, the through-rod exits both ends, resisting rotation and allowing you to drive a tool on one side while mounting a dog for a reed or electronic switch on the opposite side. The included S magnet enables this position sensing.
