This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED25X150S, 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 ACPD25X150S 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 ACED25X150S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
Double acting with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD25X150S pushes and pulls with identical output: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction, since both strokes work on the rod-side area. The 25 mm bore carries a 10 mm through-rod with an M6x1.0 female thread at each end, and the -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped on for end-of-stroke sensing. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end.
This is a DIN-standard compact body in hard-anodized aluminium with an S45C hard-chrome rod, and its short ISO 21287-class length saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters inside tight jigs and guarding. The through-rod also resists rotation and light side load and gives you a spare back-end rod for a sensor flag. Note that the ACPD family is discontinued: the current-production direct is the ACED25X150, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED25X150S (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 equal 206.2 N force in both directions keeps a small pallet shuttle symmetric over the 150 mm travel, while the rear rod carries a switch flag for mid-stroke confirmation.
In a machining jig, the through-rod resists rotation under clamp load and the fitted -S magnet feeds CMSE or DMSE switches so the PLC verifies clamped and unclamped states.
With about 12 kg of practical vertical equivalent at 0.5 MPa, the 25 mm bore nudges cartons off a conveyor lane within the 30-500 mm/s speed window.
At 206.2 N per direction, this bore sits between the 20 mm (117.8 N) and 32 mm (345.6 N) double-rod units at 0.5 MPa, so step up to 32 mm if your tooling mass grows or drop to 20 mm for lighter pick-and-place heads. The 150 mm stroke is the maximum standard stroke for bore 25, so no made-to-order build is needed. Because the piston drifts when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the same face family, and the -S magnet on this unit is what enables CMSE / DMSE switch mounting. For new designs, order the ACED25X150 instead.
Replacement checklist
Yes, both directions are equal because a rod exits each cover and both strokes use the rod-side area: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa either way, with a maximum of 42.0 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the port is M5x0.8.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and a fixed TPU bumper decelerates the piston at each end only - it is not adjustable and never holds a load. This ACPD25X150S is discontinued; the current direct is the ACED25X150, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before ordering.
