The AirTAC SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X140 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 double-rod cylinder: a Ø20mm piston rod exits BOTH ends of the Ø63mm bore, giving equal force and speed in both directions and letting you mount tooling or a sensor flag on the back rod. Stroke 140mm, PT3/8 ports, adjustable cushioning.
The AirTAC SED63X140 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an extruded aluminum barrel. A piston rod extends from both end covers, yielding identical annulus areas on each side. This geometry delivers exactly 1402 N of output force at 0.5 MPa in both extend and retract directions (1962 N at 0.7 MPa).
Because a rod protrudes from the rear, you can mount a cam or secondary tooling on the opposite end while utilizing the PT3/8 port and M16x1.5 rod thread. This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, meaning it carries no onboard position sensing. Field-adjustable air cushions at both ends protect components near the 140 mm stroke limits.

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 opposing nip rollers with 1962 N at 0.7 MPa, using the twin rods to prevent binding and maintain precise web tracking.
Moves parts between stations where the rear rod end mounts a cam, leveraging equal push and pull forces for balanced cycling.
Applies 1402 N of clamping force at 0.5 MPa on both stroke ends, ensuring consistent electrode pressure during automated welding.
Choosing this 63 mm bore provides a balanced 1402 N both-way force at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, the 50 mm bore offers 825 N. For heavier loads, the 80 mm bore provides 2268 N. Unlike a single-rod SE cylinder, this double-rod design prevents piston rotation and supports twin loads. Remember that a plain SED cannot hold position on air loss; the piston drifts, and the adjustable cushion only decelerates near stroke end. For fail-safe holding, specify a BSED or an external lock. To replace an existing ISO 15552 unit, match the 140 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and mounting subset (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2).
Quick checklist
The double-rod design provides equal force in both directions: 1402 N at 0.5 MPa, 1962 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 286 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
A rod exits both ends, creating equal extend and retract forces. It offers superior anti-rotation guidance and allows rear-rod tooling or cam mounting, which a single-rod SE cannot do.
