The AirTAC Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED100X170 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 double-rod cylinder: a Ø25mm piston rod exits BOTH ends of the Ø100mm bore, giving equal force and speed in both directions and letting you mount tooling or a sensor flag on the back rod. Stroke 170mm, PT1/2 ports, adjustable cushioning.
The AirTAC SED100X170 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder built to the ISO 15552 interface. A 25mm rod extends from both end covers, yielding an identical annulus area on both faces of the piston. You get 3681 N of thrust and pull at 0.5 MPa, with no force imbalance between directions.
Because the rear rod protrudes 170mm out the back cover, you can mount a cam or sensor flag there to trigger a second machine logic event. This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it has no onboard position sensing; you must track the rear rod externally. Field-adjustable air cushions at both ends decelerate the load near stroke end.

Because a rod exits both ends, the effective piston area — and therefore the force — is identical on extend and retract. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a safety margin.

Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B). Seals: TPU (blank) / FKM high-temp (H) / NBR (N). Thread: PT (blank) / G. Mounting (SED): Basic, LB, FA, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2. Related: SE (single rod), SEJ (double-rod adjustable stroke), BSED (double-rod rod lock).
Drives a precision drill head where the rear rod mounts a cam to confirm tool retraction, utilizing the 3681 N equal both-way force for balanced cutting feed.
Lifts and lowers a heavy conveyor diverting gate. The twin rods prevent torsional binding under off-center pallet loads during the 170mm stroke.
Shuttles heavy stamping dies into a press. The double-rod design provides dual-side guidance, keeping the 751 kgf max load moving smoothly without side-play.
At 0.5 MPa, this 100mm bore delivers 3681 N each way. Stepping down to the 80mm bore drops output to 2268 N, while the larger 125mm bore raises it to 5734 N. Choose the 100mm bore when your mechanism needs high equal force but you cannot fit the 125mm body.
A double rod resists torsional twist better than a single-rod SE, making it ideal for lifting heavy parallel-linkage gates. Remember that a plain SED drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates, it does not lock. For fail-safe hold, specify a BSED double-rod lock. When replacing an ISO 15552 unit, match the 100mm bore, 170mm stroke, PT1/2 port, and your mounting style (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2).
Quick checklist
Because the rod occupies both sides of the piston, force is identical in extend and retract. It provides 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, 5153 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 751 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes. The SED100X170 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. Match your 100mm bore, 170mm stroke, PT1/2 port, and mounting style (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2) for a drop-in replacement.
