The AirTAC Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED63X90S 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 90mm, PT3/8 ports, adjustable cushioning.
The AirTAC SED63X90S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder built to ISO 15552 dimensions. A 20mm rod exits both end covers, yielding equal effective piston areas and identical thrust in both directions. You get 1402 N of force each way at 0.5 MPa, and 1962 N at 0.7 MPa.
This unit includes the -S magnet for position sensing using CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. The protruding rear rod can mount a secondary cam or limit flag, while the twin-rod geometry resists torsional rotation better than a single-rod SE cylinder.

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 paper or film web guide with 1402 N at 0.5 MPa. The twin rods prevent chassis twist during rapid directional reversals.
Moves parts between two conveyors. The rear rod end mounts a cam to trigger a downstream pick-and-place at the exact stroke midpoint.
Presses bearings into housings. Because the annular area is identical both ways, the press applies 1962 N of force at 0.7 MPa on both the advance and return strokes.
Choose this 63mm bore when your process requires matched extend and retract forces of 1402 N at 0.5 MPa. If your load is lighter, step down to the 50mm bore providing 825 N both ways; if heavier, step up to the 80mm bore yielding 2268 N. At 90mm stroke, side loading is minimal, but external guides remain best practice for rigid loads.
Unlike a single-rod SE cylinder, the SED allows you to drive a secondary mechanism from the rear rod end. Remember that a standard SED does not hold position on air loss—the piston will drift. For fail-safe holding, specify a BSED double-rod lock cylinder or add an external pilot-operated check valve. Drop-in ISO 15552 replacement requires matching the 90mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and your mounting choice (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2).
Quick checklist
Because the double-rod design creates equal effective 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.
The twin-rod design provides superior resistance to torsional rotation and allows the rear rod end to drive a secondary mechanism or sensor flag. It also ensures perfectly matched extend and retract speeds for shuttle applications.
