The AirTAC Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED50X700 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 700mm, PT1/4 ports, adjustable cushioning.
The AirTAC SED50X700 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder built to the ISO 15552 dimension standard. Because a rod exits both end covers, the effective piston area is identical on extend and retract. This gives you an equal 825 N of thrust and pull force at 0.5 MPa, preventing directional force mismatch.
This 50 mm bore unit lacks the -S magnet option, so it has no onboard position sensing on this SKU. You still get field-adjustable air cushioning at both ends to tune end-of-stroke deceleration across the 700 mm travel. The extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods for a clean profile.

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 825 N equal both-way force to push and pull a film web guide evenly, while the twin rod prevents yaw during the 700 mm travel.
Drives a 700 mm stroke transfer arm on a packaging line, using the rear rod end to trip a mechanical flag at full extend.
Alternates a sorting flap left and right with identical 825 N force, ensuring the diverter does not favor one direction at 0.5 MPa.
This 50 mm bore yields 825 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force, step down to the 40 mm bore (528 N); if your mechanism demands more power, step up to the 63 mm bore (1402 N). Choose this double-rod SED over a single-rod SE when you need superior anti-rotation guidance, or when you want to mount a rear cam or secondary tool on the opposite rod end.
At 700 mm, the long stroke increases lateral leverage on the rod. Use external guide rails to prevent side-load binding. Remember that a plain SED does not hold position on air loss—the piston drifts. For fail-safe holding, use an external rod lock or the related BSED series. To replace an ISO 15552 unit, match the 50 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and mounting subset (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2).
Quick checklist
Because the double-rod design subtracts the rod area on both sides, force is equal 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 twin rods provide better load guidance and resist rotation. The rear protruding rod can also drive a secondary mechanism or sensor cam, which a single-rod ISO 15552 cylinder cannot do.
