The AirTAC Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED32X60S 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 60mm, PT1/8 ports, adjustable cushioning.
The AirTAC SED32X60S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder built to ISO 15552 dimensions. A 12mm rod exits both end covers, yielding equal effective piston areas. This means you get 345 N of output force in both extend and retract directions at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel contains no external tie rods, ensuring a clean profile that drops in seamlessly for ISO 15552 machine replacements.
Fitted with the -S magnet option, this 32mm bore unit supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for end-of-stroke detection. The rear rod extension is ideal for mounting a secondary cam or driving a separate mechanism, while the twin-rod geometry naturally resists torsional load and guides against rotation. Adjustable air cushions at both ends protect your components over the 60mm stroke.

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 345 N vertical gripper on a precision gantry, using the rear rod end to mount a physical cam that triggers a mechanical limit switch.
Pushes light cartons off a conveyor belt with equal 345 N force in both directions, ensuring consistent retraction speed for the reject arm.
Shuttles lightweight PCB cassettes between processing stations, leveraging the twin 12mm rods to prevent binding and resist rotational torque.
Choose this 32mm bore if your application requires 345 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force, a smaller ISO cylinder is appropriate; if you need more, stepping up to the 40mm bore provides 528 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. The twin-rod design is preferred over a single-rod SE when you need anti-rotation guidance, rear-rod tooling, or dual-side sensing. Remember that a standard SED does not hold position on air loss—the piston drifts, and the adjustable air cushion only decelerates near stroke end, acting as a bumper rather than a brake. For fail-safe holding, consider a BSED rod-lock cylinder or an external pilot-operated check valve. When replacing an ISO 15552 unit, match the 32mm bore, 60mm stroke, PT1/8 port, and mounting style (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2).
Quick checklist
Because the double-rod design has equal piston areas on both sides, the force is identical in both directions: 345 N at 0.5 MPa, 483 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 70 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes. As an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it is dimensionally interchangeable with other standard ISO 15552 double-rod units. Just match the 32mm bore, 60mm stroke, PT1/8 port, and mounting interface. Note that the overall length is longer than a single-rod cylinder to accommodate the rear rod.
