The AirTAC Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED32X5S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 double-rod cylinder: a Ø12mm piston rod exits BOTH ends of the Ø32mm bore, giving equal force and speed in both directions and letting you mount tooling or a sensor flag on the back rod. Stroke 5mm, PT1/8 ports, adjustable cushioning.
The AirTAC SED32X5S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 32mm bore and 5mm stroke. Because a rod exits both end covers, the annulus area is identical on extend and retract, yielding an equal force of 345N each way at 0.5MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel contains no external tie rods, ensuring a true ISO 15552 drop-in match.
Fitted with a standard magnet (-S), this unit supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for end-of-travel signaling. The twin rods enhance load guidance against rotation, while the rear rod end can drive a secondary mechanism or cam. It features field-adjustable air cushioning at both ends and a PT1/8 port.

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).
Uses the 345N both-way force to grip electronic boards during routing, with the twin rods preventing torsional load twist.
Guides packaging film via a rear-rod cam, ensuring equal push and pull speed for precise tension control.
Drives a micro-valve with a 5mm stroke, using DMSE electronic sensors on the -S magnet for repeatable dispensing.
Selecting the 32mm bore provides 345N of force both ways at 0.5MPa, with a maximum of 70kgf at 1.0MPa. If your application requires less force, there is no smaller SED bore, but stepping up to the 40mm bore yields 528N at 0.5MPa. The 5mm stroke is ideal for micro-clamping or short ejection tasks where twin rods prevent load twisting. A plain SED does not hold position on air loss; for fail-safe holding, use a BSED double-rod rod lock. Match your ISO 15552 replacement by verifying the 32mm bore, 5mm stroke, PT1/8 port, and -S magnet option.
Quick checklist
The SED32X5S provides equal force in both directions due to its double-rod design. It delivers 345N at 0.5MPa, 483N at 0.7MPa, and a maximum of 70kgf at 1.0MPa.
The twin rods on the SED32X5S provide better anti-rotation guidance for the load and allow the rear rod end to mount a sensor flag or drive a secondary mechanism, while maintaining identical extend and retract speeds.
