This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X10, 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.

The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X10 is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED32X10 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
A double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the DIN-standard ACP pattern, the ACPD32X10 pushes a 32 mm piston through a short 10 mm stroke and delivers 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa in BOTH directions, because a rod exits each cover and both strokes work on the rod-side area. At 0.7 MPa that rises to 483.8 N each way. The through-rod resists rotation and light side load, gives a symmetric mount, and leaves the rear rod free to carry a sensor flag. A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with S45C hard-chrome rod follows the short ISO 21287-class format, saving roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarding. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production direct is the ACED32X10, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X10 (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.
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 kgf |
Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used).
| ACPD | DIN compact cylinder (double-rod, discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×10 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing (omit for no magnet). |
| B | Rod type: B = male thread; blank = female thread. |
Replacement mapping (swap P for E): ACP→ACE, ASP→ASE, ATP→ATE, ACPD→ACED, ACPJ→ACEJ. ACP-family: ACP (double acting), ASP / ATP (single acting push / pull), ACPD (double rod), ACPJ (double rod, adjustable stroke).
The 10 mm stroke and 345.6 N both-way force clamp small aluminium brackets in a machining fixture, with the through-rod keeping the clamp plate square.
With 483.8 N per side at 0.7 MPa, the rear rod ejects finished PCB carriers from a nest while the front rod returns the tooling, all inside a compact head.
Equal force in extend and retract (rod-side area both ways) drives a divert gate on a carton line at up to 500 mm/s, with the fixed TPU bumper softening each end.
For a 10 mm stroke needing about 345 N both ways, this 32 mm bore fits; step down to the 25 mm bore (206.2 N at 0.5 MPa) for lighter clamping, or up to the 40 mm bore (571.8 N) when you need more margin. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. FA/FB flange or LB foot mounting bolts to the standard face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches. Order the ACED32X10 for new builds.
Replacement checklist
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal in both directions: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 70.5 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 30-500 mm/s. The rod is 12 mm with an M8x1.25 female thread and the port is 1/8" (PT).
No - the ACPD family is discontinued. The current-production replacement is the ACED32X10 (swap the P for an E), an ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before swapping, and if you need position sensing, order the -S version so the optional magnet is fitted for CMSE / DMSE switches.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the ACED32X10 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
