The AirTAC SED Double Rod Cylinder SED50X70 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 70mm, PT1/4 ports, adjustable cushioning.
The AirTAC SED50X70 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder built to ISO 15552 dimensional standards. It features a 50mm bore, a 70mm stroke, and a Ø20mm rod exiting both end covers. Because the annulus area is identical on both sides, it generates an equal 825 N of force in both directions at 0.5 MPa.
This through-rod design provides superior anti-rotation guidance and allows the rear rod end to drive a secondary mechanism or cam. It uses a PT1/4 port, has a 30mm adjustable air cushion at both ends, and operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet for position sensing.

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 paper or film web guide with 825 N both ways, using the twin rods to prevent chassis rotation during high-speed reciprocation.
Pushes packages on a packaging line where the rear rod end simultaneously triggers a mechanical cam flag for timing.
Ejects machined aluminum parts using matched bidirectional force, ensuring stable ejection regardless of extend or retract stroke.
Select the 50mm bore when your application requires around 825 N of thrust both ways at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force, the adjacent 40mm bore provides 528 N both ways; if you need more, stepping up to the 63mm bore yields 1402 N at 0.5 MPa. Choose this double-rod SED over a single-rod SE when you need twin-side load guidance, rear-rod tooling, or perfectly symmetrical extend and retract dynamics. Keep in mind a standard SED drifts on air loss—the adjustable cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use a BSED for fail-safe holding. As a true ISO 15552 cylinder, it drops in for any matching 50mm bore, 70mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and standard mounting interface.
Quick checklist
Because the double-rod design has equal piston areas on both sides, output 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.
Yes. The SED50X70 is a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder with no external tie rods. It is dimensionally interchangeable with any standard ISO 15552 double-rod cylinder matching its 50mm bore, 70mm stroke, and PT1/4 port interface.
