The AirTAC Airtac SED Double Rod Cylinder SED80X150 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 double-rod cylinder: a Ø25mm piston rod exits BOTH ends of the Ø80mm bore, giving equal force and speed in both directions and letting you mount tooling or a sensor flag on the back rod. Stroke 150mm, PT3/8 ports, adjustable cushioning.
The AirTAC SED80X150 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder fully dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 standard. Because a 25 mm rod exits both end covers, the effective piston area is identical on extend and retract. It generates exactly 2268 N of force in both directions at 0.5 MPa, eliminating the thrust asymmetry found in single-rod units.
This unit features an extruded aluminum barrel without external tie rods and a PT3/8 port. Field-adjustable air cushioning at both ends manages end-of-stroke deceleration over a 36 mm length. This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, meaning it does not support CMSE or DMSE position sensing without modification.

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 2268 N of equal both-way force, using the twin 25 mm rods to keep the guiding roller perfectly parallel and prevent material wrinkling.
Shifts sheet metal blanks between press stations. The rear rod extension actuates a secondary cam, synchronizing the 150 mm stroke transfer with the press cycle.
Secures heavy automotive castings. The double-rod design ensures the clamp retracts with the same 2268 N authority as it extends, preventing workpiece ejection under vibration.
Select this 80 mm bore when a task demands 2268 N of symmetrical thrust at 0.5 MPa (or 3175 N at 0.7 MPa). If your mechanism requires less force, the adjacent 63 mm bore yields 1402 N both ways. For heavier payloads, stepping up to the 100 mm bore provides 3681 N. The twin 25 mm rods provide superior anti-rotation guidance compared to a single-rod SE cylinder, and the extending rear rod can drive a secondary mechanism. Remember that an SED relies on air pressure; it will drift upon air loss. For fail-safe holding, specify a BSED double-rod lock or an external pilot-operated check valve. When replacing an ISO 15552 unit, match the 150 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and mounting style (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2).
Quick checklist
Because the double-rod design subtracts the 25 mm rod area from both sides of the piston, force is equal in both directions. It outputs 2268 N at 0.5 MPa, 3175 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 463 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No. The adjustable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston near the 150 mm stroke limits; it is not a brake. If air loss occurs, the load will drift. For fail-safe position holding, use an AirTAC BSED double-rod lock cylinder or an external rod lock.
