This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED25X15S, 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 ACPD25X15S is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 15mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED25X15S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
Double acting with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD25X15S pushes and pulls with identical force because each stroke works on the rod-side area: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction. The 25 mm bore, 15 mm stroke and 10 mm through-rod suit short, symmetric fixtures, and the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tool. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches mount directly on the body.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod is an ISO 21287-class short build that saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarding. A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Note that this ACPD is discontinued: the current-production direct is ACED25X15, and you should confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED25X15S (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. |
| ×15 | 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 through-rod lets a nesting fixture for small aluminium brackets be clamped from both sides with an equal 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa, keeping the workpiece centered without a side thrust imbalance.
With the -S magnet fitted, CMSE or DMSE switches confirm the 15 mm eject stroke on a small electronics assembly station, flagging a missed part before the next cycle starts.
A short 15 mm shuttle that pushes trays alternately left and right uses the double rod for equal 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa in both directions plus a rotation-resistant guided mount.
At 206.2 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 25 mm bore sits between the 20 mm (117.8 N) and 32 mm (345.6 N) double-rod versions, so step down for light pick-and-place or up if your part weight grows. The 15 mm stroke is well inside the 150 mm standard range for this bore. FA/FB flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the -S magnet on this unit accepts CMSE / DMSE switches for end-position sensing. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check if you need a held load. Order ACED25X15 as the current replacement and verify the mounting footprint against the ISO 21287 datasheet.
Replacement checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, output is equal both ways: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa on every stroke, with a maximum of about 42.0 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure 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 with a female M6x1.0 rod thread.
The ISO 21287-class short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end and FA/FB flange or LB foot options. The ACPD line is discontinued; the current-production direct is ACED25X15 in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before you swap.
