This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED25X70SB, 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 ACPD25X70SB
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X70SB is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 70mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED25X70SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X70SB
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD25X70SB delivers 206.2 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa (288.6 N at 0.7 MPa) because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The 25 mm bore takes a 10 mm through-rod with a male thread on each end, and the 70 mm stroke sits well inside the 150 mm standard limit for this bore. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is an ISO 21287 short build, cutting roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and gantries.
Because the piston is not held by anything when air is lost, a suspended load will drift - add a rod lock or pilot check if you need a held position. The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. Fixed TPU bumpers sit at both ends, speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and the -S magnet on this model lets you bolt on CMSE or DMSE switches. This model is discontinued; the current direct is the ACED25X70, and buyers should confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED25X70SB (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 ACPD25X70SB Is Used
Two-sided fixture clamping
The 70 mm stroke and 206.2 N per side let one cylinder clamp a machined aluminium bracket from both ends of a drilling jig, with the male thread taking a knuckle on each rod.
Push-pull transfer on packaging lines
Equal force in both directions suits a reciprocating pusher that indexes cartons into a case packer, where the return stroke needs the same 206.2 N as the push.
Position-flagged gate on an assembly cell
The rear rod carries a sensor flag, and the fitted -S magnet reads out via CMSE or DMSE switches so the PLC confirms the gate is fully retracted before the robot cycles.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD25X70SB with the ACED25X70SB
For 70 mm of travel with about 206 N of force both ways, the 25 mm bore is the right pick; step down to the 20 mm bore (117.8 N at 0.5 MPa) for lighter clamping or up to the 32 mm bore (345.6 N) when the part weight grows. The male rod thread (B code) suits I/Y knuckles and threaded fixtures, while FA/FB flanges, LB feet, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot and FTC brackets bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face. Since ACPD is discontinued, order the ACED25X70 as the current-production equivalent in the same bore, stroke and force class.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED25X70SB
- ✓ 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 ACPD25X70SB FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design works on the rod-side area both ways, so you get 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa in each direction, with a maximum of 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), and speed runs 30-500 mm/s. Note the model is discontinued; the ACED25X70 is the current replacement.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it fits shallow guards and tight fixtures. Sensing is via the optional -S magnet - this model carries it - so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly on the body. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorb the end-of-stroke impact, and the port is M5x0.8.
