This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED25X150, 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 ACPD25X150 is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 150mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED25X150 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
This discontinued ACPD25X150 is a double acting compact cylinder with a DOUBLE ROD: a 10 mm piston rod exits both covers, so the 25 mm bore delivers the same 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa (288.6 N at 0.7 MPa) in either direction because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, gives a symmetric mounting face, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, and travel speed runs 30-500 mm/s over 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) of clean, 40 um filtered air.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this 150 mm stroke unit fits tight jigs and gantries. The hard-anodized aluminium body pairs with an S45C hard-chrome rod and a female M6x1.0 rod thread. No magnet is fitted on this code; order the -S variant if you need CMSE / DMSE switch sensing. Production has ended - the current direct is ACED25X150, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED25X150 (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. |
| ×150 | 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 206.2 N both-ways force at 0.5 MPa clamps small aluminium brackets in machining jigs, and the rear rod carries a flag for a CMSE switch when the -S magnet is ordered.
With about 124 N of usable thrust at 0.5 MPa, the 150 mm stroke sweeps cartons or blisters off a narrow conveyor where a full-length profile cylinder will not fit.
Because a rod exits both covers, one ACPD25X150 can index a slide forward while the back rod trips a limit flag - equal 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa on each stroke.
At 206.2 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 25 mm bore suits clamping and transfer jobs in the 12-20 kg range; step down to the 20 mm bore (117.8 N) for lighter fixtures or up to the 32 mm bore (345.6 N) when a heavier part must be pushed. 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. Mount with FA/FB flanges or LB feet on the standard face, and add the -S magnet code only if CMSE / DMSE switches are needed. Since ACPD25X150 is discontinued, order ACED25X150 as the current replacement and verify the ISO 21287 footprint.
Replacement checklist
The 25 mm double-rod bore gives 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa, equal in both directions because both strokes use the rod-side area. Maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 42.0 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
AirTAC no longer produces the ACPD family; the current direct is ACED25X150 (swap the P for an E), which matches the same 25 mm bore, 150 mm stroke and force class in the ISO 21287 series. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP was built to a DIN-standard footprint, and check the FA/FB or LB bracket fit.
