This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED25X160S, 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 ACPD25X160S
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X160S is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 160mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED25X160S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X160S
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD25X160S pushes and pulls with identical force because both strokes work on the rod-side area: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction. The 160 mm stroke exceeds the 150 mm standard limit for the 25 mm bore, so this is a made-to-order length. The -S code means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clamped on for end-of-stroke sensing.
The through-rod gives a symmetric mount, resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag on a gantry or pick station. Its hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod runs at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. This model is discontinued; the current direct is ACED25X160 - confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED25X160S (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 (Ø25mm)
| 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).

Where the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X160S Is Used
Reciprocating transfer arm
The through-rod drives a slide the same speed and force in both directions, moving small electronics trays between two pick positions at up to 500 mm/s.
Symmetric clamp fixture
With 206.2 N available on each stroke at 0.5 MPa, the double rod clamps plastic housings in a machining jig with equal pressure regardless of approach side.
Position-flagged elevator stage
The rear rod carries a sensor flag past CMSE switches while the front rod lifts a 10 kg inspection camera stage, with the 160 mm made-to-order stroke covering the full travel.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X160S with the ACED25X160S
Size both ways: a 20 mm bore double-rod unit gives 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa, while a 32 mm bore raises that to 345.6 N, so pick the 25 mm when your clamp or lift needs roughly 200 N in both directions. Plan on about 124 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder does not hold position when air is lost - the piston drifts - so add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the standard face, and the optional -S magnet on this unit pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches. For new designs, order the ACED25X160 instead.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED25X160S
- ✓ 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 ACPD25X160S FAQ
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, using the rod-side area. At 1.0 MPa the bore reaches a maximum of 42.0 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, speed 30-500 mm/s, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end.
The 25 mm bore normally tops out at a 150 mm standard stroke, so 160 mm is a made-to-order length. This ACPD model is discontinued; the current-production replacement is the ACED25X160 in the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP follows the DIN-standard footprint, and remember the magnet here is the optional -S version, not fitted on every unit.
