This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED25X45S, 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 ACPD25X45S
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X45S is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 45mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED25X45S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X45S
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD25X45S pushes and pulls with identical output: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa in each direction, because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The 25 mm bore carries a 10 mm through-rod with a female M6x1.0 thread, and the fixed TPU bumper at each end takes the end-of-travel shock. This model is discontinued; the current-production direct is the ISO 21287 ACED25X45.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it suits tight jigs, guarding and gantry axes. The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, so the rear rod can carry a sensor flag while the front rod does the work. With the -S magnet this unit carries, CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches mount directly on the body.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED25X45S (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 ACPD25X45S Is Used
Symmetric push-pull jig clamping
The equal 206.2 N output in both directions lets one ACPD25X45S clamp a machined aluminium bracket on the forward stroke and release the fixture on the return, with the 45 mm stroke clearing the part for loading.
Position-flagged transfer slide
On a small electronics assembly slide, the rear rod carries a switch flag while the -S magnet feeds CMSE / DMSE end-position signals, and the through-rod keeps the 30-500 mm/s motion free of rotation.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X45S with the ACED25X45S
Size this bore by load, not by habit: the 20 mm bore gives 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa and the 32 mm bore gives 345.6 N, so pick the 25 mm when your clamping or positioning force sits between those figures. Remember it is a through-rod on both ends, so leave clearance behind the cylinder for the rear rod. Like any plain double-rod cylinder it will drift when air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. Foot (LB) and flange (FA/FB) mounts plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the face, and the -S magnet on this model accepts CMSE / DMSE switches. Before ordering, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions of the ACED25X45 replacement against your fixture.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED25X45S
- ✓ 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 ACPD25X45S FAQ
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so output is equal both ways because both strokes use the rod-side area. At 0.5 MPa you get 206.2 N per direction, at 0.7 MPa you get 288.6 N per direction, and the maximum at 1.0 MPa is 42.0 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, speed range 30-500 mm/s, and the air must be filtered to 40 um.
Order the ACED25X45, the current-production ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you get the same 25 mm bore, 45 mm stroke and force class in a matching short body. The ACP is DIN-standard, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before swapping. The ACED keeps the FA/FB flange and LB foot mounting family, and the optional -S magnet code still enables CMSE / DMSE switches.
