This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED20X200S, the same code under the new prefix. The ACE replacement is a current-production ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same bore, stroke and force class, with a matching short body and the same mounting-accessory family, so it fits the same envelope. Confirm mounting-interface dimensions against the ACE datasheet before ordering.
Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD20X200S
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD20X200S is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 200mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED20X200S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD20X200S
Double acting with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD20X200S is a DIN-standard compact cylinder in the discontinued ACPD family. Because each side of the piston sees the rod-side area, it delivers 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 164.9 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction - there is no stronger push stroke than pull stroke. The 200 mm stroke is longer than the 100 mm standard maximum for a 20 mm bore, so this unit is made to order. The S code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted directly on the hard-anodized aluminium body.
The through-rod gives a symmetric mounting face, resists rotation and side load, and leaves the rear rod free to carry a sensor flag. Fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the piston at both ends, and speed spans 30-500 mm/s over an operating range of 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). This model is discontinued: the current-production replacement is the ISO 21287 ACED20X200, so confirm mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED20X200S (ISO 21287) carries the same bore/stroke/force class; confirm mounting-interface dimensions against the ACE datasheet before installation. Rod type: female thread (blank) or male thread (B). Thread options: PT (blank) / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø20mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 118 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 165 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 24 kgf |
Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used).

Where the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD20X200S Is Used
Reciprocating conveyor pushers
The through-rod drives a pusher plate from either end on a bottling line transfer deck, with 117.8 N available in both travel directions and CMSE switches reporting end positions thanks to the fitted -S magnet.
Carton reject gate
On a packaging line, the symmetric double rod actuates a flip gate in both directions at up to 500 mm/s, with the short ISO 21287-class body fitting where a full-length profile cylinder cannot.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD20X200S with the ACED20X200S
At 117.8 N per side at 0.5 MPa, this 20 mm bore suits light clamping and transfer work; step down to the 16 mm bore (75.4 N) for tighter loads or up to the 25 mm bore (206.2 N) when more force is needed. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. The female M6x1.0 rod thread takes standard I/Y knuckles, and the 200 mm stroke is a made-to-order length beyond the 100 mm standard for this bore. Order the ACED20X200 as the current direct successor.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED20X200S
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force class
- ✓ Confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S for magnet if you need sensors
Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD20X200S FAQ
Output is equal both ways because both strokes use the rod-side area: 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 164.9 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 24.0 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed is 30-500 mm/s, and the 200 mm stroke is a non-standard made-to-order length for the 20 mm bore.
No - the ACPD family is discontinued. The current-production replacement is the ISO 21287 ACED20X200 (swap the P for an E), which matches the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACPD follows the older DIN-standard compact footprint. The fitted -S magnet carries over as an option on the ACE, and the fixed TPU bumpers at both ends remain part of the design.
