This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED20X75, 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 ACPD20X75
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD20X75 is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 75mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED20X75 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD20X75
The ACPD20X75 is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder in the discontinued ACPD range: a piston rod leaves both covers of the hard-anodized aluminium body, so the through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount. Because both strokes work on the rod-side area, output is equal in each direction - 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 164.9 N at 0.7 MPa, either way. The 20 mm bore takes an M5x0.8 port, the rod end carries a female M6x1.0 thread, and a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guards. Note the magnet is not fitted on this code; order the -S version if you need CMSE / DMSE switch positions. This model is discontinued - the current-production direct is the ACED20X75, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED20X75 (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 ACPD20X75 Is Used
Small jig clamping
The 117.8 N rod-side force at 0.5 MPa holds light aluminium brackets or plastic housings in a drilling jig, with the 75 mm stroke clearing the part for loading.
Bidirectional parts pusher
Equal force in both directions lets one cylinder push rejected cartons off a packaging line and retract with the same power, no oversizing needed.
Sensor-flag position check
With the optional -S magnet and CMSE / DMSE switches, the back-end rod can carry a flag to confirm slide position on an assembly station.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD20X75 with the ACED20X75
At 117.8 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 20 mm bore suits light clamping and small parts handling; 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. The 75 mm stroke sits inside the 100 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check where a load must stay put. FA/FB flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches. For new projects, specify the ACED20X75 instead, as this ACPD model is discontinued.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED20X75
- ✓ 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 ACPD20X75 FAQ
It is a double-rod cylinder, so force is identical both ways: 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa, 164.9 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 24.0 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Both strokes use the rod-side area because a rod exits each cover. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um.
The model is discontinued; the current direct is the ACED20X75 (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 ACP is DIN-standard. The short body cuts about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and the fixed TPU bumpers at both ends simply decelerate the piston at each end of travel.
