Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X15S
The AirTAC SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X15S 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 15mm, PT3/8 ports, adjustable cushioning.

About the Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X15S
The AirTAC SED63X15S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 15 mm stroke. Because a rod exits both end covers, the annulus area is identical on extend and retract, yielding equal force in both directions at 1402 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel contains no external tie rods, ensuring a clean profile for tight machinery layouts.
This unit includes the -S magnet option for direct mounting of CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors along the barrel grooves. It features field-adjustable air cushioning at both ends to decelerate the load near stroke extremes, and its PT3/8 ports match the 63 mm bore specification.

| Port size | PT3/8 |
| 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, 36 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 (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Force (both directions) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1962 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 286 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 SED63X15S Is Used
Gripper Jaw Synchronization
Drives opposing gripper jaws in packaging machines, utilizing the 1402 N both-way force to ensure perfectly synchronized clamping and release of cartons.
Dual-Side Conveyor Diverters
Powers a diverter arm on a sorting line, using the rear rod end to mount a cam while the front rod pushes packages smoothly at up to 800 mm/s.
Press Registration Stops
Acts as a high-precision registration stop in a sheet metal feed system, where the twin rods prevent load rotation during rapid 15 mm indexing.
Is the Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X15S the Right Cylinder?
At 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore generates 1402 N both ways. If your application requires less force, the adjacent 50 mm bore provides 825 N both ways. For heavier demands, the 80 mm bore offers 2268 N both ways. Choose the SED63X15S when you need a very short 15 mm stroke with twin-rod anti-rotation guidance or rear-rod tooling. To replace an ISO 15552 unit, match the 63 mm bore, 15 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and mounting style (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2—this series omits FB, CA, CB, and CR). Note that a plain SED does not hold position on air loss; for fail-safe holding, consider a BSED double-rod rod lock or an external pilot-operated check valve.
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 SED63X15S FAQ
Because the double-rod design has equal annulus areas on both sides, force is identical in extend and retract: 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, allowing you to mount a sensor flag or secondary tool on the rear rod while guiding the load against rotation better than a single-rod SE cylinder. Remember to leave rear-rod clearance, as overall length is longer than a single-rod equivalent.
