This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED25X60B, 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 ACPD25X60B
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X60B is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 60mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED25X60B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X60B
This is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the DIN-standard ACP pattern: a piston rod exits both covers, so the 25 mm bore delivers 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa (288.6 N at 0.7 MPa) in the SAME direction on both strokes, because both sides work on the rod-side area. The 60 mm stroke runs at 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um, from 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. The male rod thread (B code) on both ends bolts straight to I/Y knuckles.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and gantry slides. Because the through-rod resists rotation and side load, the free back-end rod is a handy carrier for a sensor flag. Note: this unit has NO magnet fitted - only the -S code version accepts CMSE / DMSE switches. The ACPD family is discontinued; the current-production direct is ACED25X60, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. At 0.5 MPa, plan on roughly 124 N (about 12 kg vertical) of usable work rather than the full 206.2 N rating.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED25X60B (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 ACPD25X60B Is Used
Reciprocating parts transfer
A pick slide on a small assembly machine that must push and pull with identical 206.2 N force - the double rod makes both strokes symmetric without recalculating areas.
Sensor-flag carrier on a test rig
The rear rod on a 60 mm-stroke leak-test fixture carries a flag past a switch position, while the front rod does the clamping work at 0.5 MPa.
Compact ejection station
Kicking a 10 kg aluminium casting off a machining jig, where the short body fits behind the fixture and the male M6x1.0 rod threads take a custom pusher.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X60B with the ACED25X60B
Size both ways: if 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa is more than your fixture needs, the ACPD20X60B gives 117.8 N; if you need more, step up to the ACPD32X60B at 345.6 N. The 60 mm stroke sits well inside the 150 mm standard range for bore 25, so no made-to-order build is required. Match FA/FB flange or LB foot brackets to your fixture, and remember the through-rod does not hold position when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. This model is discontinued; order ACED25X60 as the current replacement and verify the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED25X60B
- ✓ 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 ACPD25X60B FAQ
Yes - equal both ways, because the rod-side area works on each stroke. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 206.2 N; at 0.7 MPa, 288.6 N; the maximum at 1.0 MPa is 42.0 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, port M5x0.8, rod 10 mm with male thread.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is an ISO 21287-class short build, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. The ACPD line is discontinued; ACED25X60 is the current direct successor in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. If you need position switches, order the -S magnet code for CMSE / DMSE sensors; this version has no magnet.
