This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED25X10, 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.

The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X10 is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 10mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED25X10 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
This is a double acting compact cylinder with a through rod: a 10 mm piston rod exits BOTH covers of the ACPD25X10, so the 25 mm bore delivers the same 206.2 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa (288.6 N at 0.7 MPa), because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight jigs and slide assemblies a full-length body cannot. Note that this model is discontinued; the current-production direct is the ACED25X10 (swap the P for an E), so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before ordering.
The back-end rod doubles as a sensor-flag carrier or a symmetric second mount, and the through rod resists rotation and side load better than a stub single rod. Ports are M5x0.8, the female rod thread is M6x1.0, speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and a fixed TPU bumper pads both ends. The optional -S magnet code enables CMSE / DMSE switches; without it there is no magnet fitted.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED25X10 (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.
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 42 kgf |
Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used).
| ACPD | DIN compact cylinder (double-rod, discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 25 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×10 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing (omit for no magnet). |
| B | Rod type: B = male thread; blank = female thread. |
Replacement mapping (swap P for E): ACP→ACE, ASP→ASE, ATP→ATE, ACPD→ACED, ACPJ→ACEJ. ACP-family: ACP (double acting), ASP / ATP (single acting push / pull), ACPD (double rod), ACPJ (double rod, adjustable stroke).
The 10 mm stroke and short body let the ACPD25X10 clamp small stamped brackets inside a press die, pushing 206.2 N both ways at 0.5 MPa so the clamp and release forces match.
A pick-and-place slide on a small assembly cell uses the through rod for a rotation-resistant guide, and with the optional -S magnet a DMSE switch confirms each 10 mm end position.
A bottling-line lane gate needs equal force in both directions; the double rod gives 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa either way, so the gate indexes at the same speed returning.
At 25 mm bore the ACPD25X10 gives 206.2 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. If your load needs less, the 20 mm bore offers 117.8 N; if you need more, step up to the 32 mm bore at 345.6 N. The 10 mm stroke suits short indexing and part-present moves. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. FA/FB flange or LB foot mounting bolts to the standard face, and the optional -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report end positions. This model is discontinued - order the ACED25X10 as the current direct and verify the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions.
Replacement checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal both ways: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa, on every stroke of the 25 mm bore. Peak force at 1.0 MPa is 42.0 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, port M5x0.8, female rod thread M6x1.0.
The hard-anodized aluminium body follows the short DIN-standard compact format, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. The ACPD25X10 is discontinued; the current-production replacement is the ACED25X10 in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
