The AirTAC SED Double Rod Cylinder SED50X200S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 double-rod cylinder: a Ø20mm piston rod exits BOTH ends of the Ø50mm bore, giving equal force and speed in both directions and letting you mount tooling or a sensor flag on the back rod. Stroke 200mm, PT1/4 ports, adjustable cushioning.
The AirTAC SED50X200S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder built to ISO 15552 dimensional standards. Featuring a 50 mm bore and 200 mm stroke, it uses an extruded aluminum barrel without external tie rods. Because a 20 mm rod exits both end covers, the effective piston area is identical on extend and retract. This yields equal force in both directions, generating 825 N at 0.5 MPa and 1154 N at 0.7 MPa.
Equipped with a standard magnet (-S), this unit supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for tracking both stroke ends. The rear rod extension can mount a secondary cam or limit flag to trigger external mechanisms, while simultaneously guiding the load against torsional rotation. Adjustable air cushions at both ends absorb impact, and the PT1/4 ports ensure straightforward pneumatic integration.

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).
Provides 825 N of equal bidirectional force at 0.5 MPa to steer and tension continuous material webs without rotational deflection.
Uses the through-rod design to actuate sorting flaps on both sides of a conveyor simultaneously, ensuring synchronized package handling.
Leverages the rear rod end to mount a secondary cam while driving a 200 mm stroke transfer arm, maintaining precise parallel movement.
When sizing this 50 mm bore, compare its 825 N both-way output at 0.5 MPa against adjacent options. Stepping down to the 40 mm bore yields 528 N, while stepping up to the 63 mm bore provides 1402 N. Choose this double-rod SED over a single-rod SE when your application demands equal push-pull forces, anti-rotation stability, or a rear-rod output for secondary tooling. For ISO 15552 direct replacement, match the 50 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and -S magnet, selecting from Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2 mounts.
Remember that a standard SED does not hold position on air loss; the piston drifts. The adjustable cushion only decelerates near stroke end and is not a lock. For fail-safe holding, use a BSED double-rod lock cylinder or an external pilot-operated check valve. At 200 mm stroke, side loads are minimal, but always guide the load externally to prevent binding.
Quick checklist
Because the double-rod design yields equal effective area both ways, the SED50X200S generates 825 N at 0.5 MPa, 1154 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 168 kgf at 1.0 MPa in both extend and retract directions.
The twin rods provide equal push-pull force, better anti-rotation guidance for the load, and a rear rod end that can drive a secondary mechanism or mount a sensor flag, which a single-rod SE cannot offer.
