The AirTAC Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED125X115 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 double-rod cylinder: a Ø32mm piston rod exits BOTH ends of the Ø125mm bore, giving equal force and speed in both directions and letting you mount tooling or a sensor flag on the back rod. Stroke 115mm, PT1/2 ports, adjustable cushioning.
The AirTAC SED125X115 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder built to the ISO 15552 interface. Because a 32 mm rod occupies both sides of the 125 mm piston, the annulus area is identical in both directions, yielding an equal 5734 N of thrust each way at 0.5 MPa. You can mount a cam or sensor flag on the rear rod end to trigger secondary mechanisms, while the twin rods actively resist torsional load twist.
This SKU lacks the -S magnet option, so it carries no internal position sensor. It features field-adjustable air cushions at both ends (40 mm stroke) to decelerate heavy masses, and its extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods for a clean profile.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SED datasheet and ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 dimensions. Confirm against the product label before installation. Port options: PT (standard) / G (BSPP).
| Pressure | Force (both directions) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 5734 N |

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).
Ejects large stamped metal panels with 5734 N of equal force in both directions, using the rear rod to push a synchronized secondary kicker arm.
Shifts heavy injection molds between stations, relying on the twin 32 mm rods to prevent torsional sag during horizontal indexing.
Alternates heavy automotive castings between machining centers, utilizing the dual-ended layout to mount an external mechanical stop cam.
Selecting this 125 mm bore provides massive equal bidirectional force. If your application requires less energy, stepping down to the 100 mm bore yields 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa. As the largest standard size, there is no larger bore neighbor, making this the maximum force option for the series.
Choose a double-rod SED over a single-rod SE when you need to drive a secondary mechanism from the rear rod or require superior anti-rotation guidance. Remember that a plain SED does not hold position on air loss; the piston drifts without pressure. For fail-safe holding, consider a BSED double-rod rod lock. To replace an ISO 15552 unit, match the 115 mm stroke, PT1/2 port, and mounting interface (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2).
Quick checklist
The 125 mm bore double-rod design yields equal force in both directions: 5734 N at 0.5 MPa, 8028 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 1169 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The twin 32 mm rods provide superior anti-rotation resistance and allow the rear rod end to drive a secondary mechanism or sensor cam. It is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 double-rod cylinders.
