The AirTAC SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X230 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 230mm, PT3/8 ports, adjustable cushioning.
The AirTAC SED63X230 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder built to ISO 15552 dimensional standards. A 20 mm rod exits both end covers, yielding equal effective piston areas. This means the cylinder generates 1402 N of force in both extend and retract directions at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel has no external tie rods, and adjustable air cushions at both ends manage end-of-stroke impacts.
Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot host CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors. The twin-rod layout is highly effective for driving dual-side mechanisms or mounting a rear cam, while the PT3/8 ports supply air evenly to both chambers.

|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1962 N |

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 nip roller assembly with 1402 N both ways to keep paper or film webs centered without rotational drift.
Uses the twin rods to push and pull a conveyor diverter simultaneously, ensuring both sides of the fixture move at identical speeds.
The rear rod protrudes 230 mm to actuate an external limit cam, sequencing a secondary machining operation while the front rod clamps.
Selecting the 63 mm bore provides a balanced 1402 N both-way force at 0.5 MPa. If your payload is lighter, step down to the 50 mm bore for 825 N; if you need heavier thrust, step up to the 80 mm bore for 2268 N. Choose this double-rod SED over a single-rod SE when the load requires anti-rotation guidance, rear-end tooling, or perfectly symmetrical push-pull dynamics. At 230 mm stroke, the extended rod length requires external guide rails to prevent lateral side-loading and premature seal wear.
For ISO 15552 direct replacement, match the 63 mm bore, 230 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and your mounting style (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2). Note that a plain SED does not hold position on air loss; the piston drifts, and the adjustable cushion only decelerates near stroke end. For fail-safe holding, use a BSED double-rod lock cylinder.
Quick checklist
Because the double-rod design has equal piston areas on both sides, force is identical in both directions. It delivers 1402 N at 0.5 MPa, 1962 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 286 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the SED63X230 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. Match your 63 mm bore, 230 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and mounting style (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). Note this unit has no -S magnet, so it cannot support position sensors.
