This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED25X30B, 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 ACPD25X30B
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X30B is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 30mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED25X30B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X30B
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD25X30B 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 carries a 10 mm through-rod with a male thread (the B code) on both ends, and the fixed TPU bumper sits at each cover. This model is discontinued; the current direct is ACED25X30.
The short ISO 21287-class body cuts roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures and sliding gantries. The through-rod resists rotation and side load and lets the rear rod carry a sensor flag. Note the piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for held loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED25X30B (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 ACPD25X30B Is Used
Symmetric jig clamping
The male-threaded through-rod lets a clamp fixture hang off the rear rod while the front rod clamps, with 206.2 N of equal force on both strokes of a CNC jig.
Push-pull transfer slide
On a small parts transfer slide, the double rod carries a carrier plate between two positions over the 30 mm stroke at 30-500 mm/s without a separate guide.
Rear-rod flag station
Mount a flag on the back-end rod of a packaging line gate cylinder; with the -S magnet option the same flag position can be read by a CMSE or DMSE switch.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X30B with the ACED25X30B
At 206.2 N per side at 0.5 MPa, this 25 mm bore suits clamping and transfer tasks in the 10-20 kg range; step down to a 20 mm bore (117.8 N) for lighter jigs or up to a 32 mm bore (345.6 N) for heavier tooling. The 30 mm stroke sits well inside the 150 mm standard limit for this bore. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the ISO 21287 face. This unit has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches cannot be used; order the -S version if sensing is needed. For new builds, specify ACED25X30 and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED25X30B
- ✓ 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 ACPD25X30B FAQ
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is identical in both directions: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa, equal on push and pull since both strokes use the rod-side area. At the full 1.0 MPa rating the bore reaches a maximum of 42.0 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
The hard-anodized aluminium body follows the short DIN-standard format and saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with FA/FB flange or LB foot mounting. The ACPD25X30B is discontinued; the current-production successor is ACED25X30 in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
