Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X170
The AirTAC SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X170 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 170mm, PT3/8 ports, adjustable cushioning.

About the Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X170
The AirTAC SED63X170 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder. A single piston drives a 20 mm rod out of both end covers, yielding identical annulus areas. Consequently, output force is perfectly symmetrical, providing 1402 N in both directions at 0.5 MPa.
This unit features a PT3/8 port and field-adjustable air cushions at both ends with a 36 mm stroke length to manage kinetic energy. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it does not support CMSE or DMSE position sensing. The rear rod extension is ideal for mounting a mechanical cam or operating a secondary mechanism.
Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X170 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X170 |
|---|---|
| Series | SED ISO 15552 double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø63 mm |
| Stroke | 170 mm |
| Configuration | Double rod, double acting |
| 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 |
| Max stroke | Up to 1500 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 SED63X170 Is Used
Web Guiding Mechanism
Drives a steering roller with 1402 N both ways, using the rear rod to mount a cam for edge-trim feedback.
Dual-Side Pallet Pusher
Transfers pallets symmetrically, leveraging the twin rods to prevent yaw and maintain precise 170 mm travel.
Shuttle Valve Actuator
Alternates a heavy diverter plate at high speed, relying on equal extend and retract forces to prevent motor stall.
Is the Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X170 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 63 mm bore, note the 50 mm bore yields 825 N and the 80 mm bore yields 2268 N, both at 0.5 MPa. Choose the double-rod SED over a single-rod SE when your application demands anti-rotation stability, dual-side guidance, or rear-rod tooling. For direct replacements, match the 63 mm bore, 170 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and mounting interface (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2). Note that adjustable cushions only decelerate near stroke end; they do not hold position on air loss. For fail-safe holding, specify a BSED double-rod lock.
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 SED63X170 FAQ
The SED63X170 delivers equal force in both directions due to the double-rod design. It outputs 1402 N at 0.5 MPa, 1962 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 286 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The twin rods provide superior anti-rotation resistance and allow the rear rod to drive secondary tooling. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 but omits FB, CA, CB, and CR mounts.
