This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X100B, 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 ACPD32X100B
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X100B is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED32X100B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X100B
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod through both covers, the ACPD32X100B delivers 345.6 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa) because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The 32 mm bore drives a 12 mm rod over a 100 mm stroke at 30-500 mm/s, with air supply from 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and a 1/8" PT port. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarding where a full-length body cannot fit.
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 at both ends decelerate the piston, and the B code gives a male rod thread on each end. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production direct is the ACED32X100 (same bore, stroke and force class), so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X100B (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 (Ø32mm)
| 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).

Where the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X100B Is Used
Two-sided press fixture
The through-rod pushes a locating pin forward and a clamp pad backward from one body, delivering 345.6 N each way at 0.5 MPa on a CNC jig.
Conveyor diverter flag
The rear rod carries a sensor flag while the front rod swings a 100 mm-stroke diverter blade on a bottling line, with equal force in both directions.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X100B with the ACED32X100B
At 345.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 32 mm bore suits clamping and transfer loads up to about 207 N in practice. Step down to ACPD25X100B (206.2 N) for lighter fixtures, or up to ACPD40X100B (571.8 N) if the load grows. Remember a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must be held. Mount with FA/FB flange or LB foot, and if you need CMSE or DMSE switches, order the -S code for the optional magnet; this unit has none. For new projects, specify the ACED32X100 instead.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED32X100B
- ✓ 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 ACPD32X100B FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal in both directions: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, on the rod-side area. At the 1.0 MPa maximum the bore reaches about 70.5 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, with a 12 mm male-thread rod on each end and a 1/8" PT port.
No - the ACPD family is discontinued. The current-production replacement is the ACED32X100, an ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same bore, stroke and force class. Before swapping, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions, since the ACP was built to a DIN-standard footprint. Also note the magnet is only fitted when the -S code is ordered; without it, no CMSE or DMSE switch can be mounted.
