Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED50X60S
The AirTAC SED Double Rod Cylinder SED50X60S 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 60mm, PT1/4 ports, adjustable cushioning.

About the Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED50X60S
The AirTAC SED50X60S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder fully dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. A 20mm rod exits both end covers, yielding identical annulus areas. This means the drive force is perfectly equal in extend and retract, delivering 825 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel lacks external tie rods, providing a clean, modern profile.
Equipped with a standard -S magnet, this 50mm bore unit supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for precise end-of-stroke detection. It uses a PT1/4 port, an M16x1.5 rod-end thread, and features field-adjustable air cushioning at both ends to decelerate loads smoothly over its 60mm stroke.
Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED50X60S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED50X60S |
|---|---|
| Series | SED ISO 15552 double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø50 mm |
| Stroke | 60 mm |
| Configuration | Double rod, double acting |
| Port size | PT1/4 |
| Rod thread | M16×1.5 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C (0–150 °C with FKM seals) |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Adjustable, 30 mm |
| Max stroke | Up to 1200 mm |
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).
Theoretical Output Force (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Force (both directions) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1155 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 168 kgf |
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.

Where the Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED50X60S Is Used
PCB Depaneling Saw
Drives a circular blade feed with 825 N of equal both-way force, using the rear rod to synchronize an auxiliary blade guard mechanism.
Web Guiding Bracket
Steers a textile web guide roller, leveraging the twin 20mm rods to prevent chassis rotation and ensure perfectly symmetric tension.
Dual-Station Shuttle
Indexing a 60mm stroke between two machining heads, utilizing the -S magnet and DMSE sensors to confirm position at both ends.
Is the Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED50X60S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 50mm bore when you need 825 N of bidirectional force at 0.5 MPa. If your application is lighter, the neighboring 40mm bore provides 528 N both ways. If you need more thrust, step up to the 63mm bore, which offers 1402 N at 0.5 MPa. The twin-rod design is essential over a single-rod SE when you need superior anti-rotation guidance, rear-rod tooling mounting, or dual-side mechanisms. Remember that a plain SED does not hold position on air loss; for fail-safe locking, consider a BSED or an external rod lock. To replace an ISO 15552 unit, match the 50mm bore, 60mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and your specific mounting choice from Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Equal force/speed both directions needed?
- ✓ Back-rod space for tooling or a flag
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for CMSE/DMSE sensors?
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Support both rod ends; avoid side load.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB/FA/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED50X60S FAQ
Because the double-rod design creates equal annulus areas on both sides of the piston, the force is identical in both directions: 825 N at 0.5 MPa, 1154 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 168 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The SED50X60S provides superior anti-rotation guidance for external loads and allows you to mount a secondary cam, sensor flag, or tooling directly to the rear rod end, which is impossible on a single-rod cylinder.
