This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X100SB, 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 ACPD32X100SB
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X100SB 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 ACED32X100SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X100SB
The ACPD32X100SB is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP family, now discontinued. A 12 mm rod exits BOTH covers, so the 32 mm bore delivers an identical 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa in each direction - both strokes work on the rod-side area, so there is never a push/pull imbalance. The male rod thread (B code) and the optional -S magnet (fitted on this model, enabling CMSE / DMSE switches) are both in the ordering code.
Its hard-anodized aluminium body is an ISO 21287 short build that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it suits tight guarding and slide tables. At 0.5 MPa plan for roughly 207 N of usable work - about 21 kg - rather than the full 345.6 N rating. A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and the current-production replacement is the ACED32X100.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X100SB (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 ACPD32X100SB Is Used
Two-sided ejection on a press jig
The through-rod lets a fixture eject a stamped bracket forward and retract a locator backward from one 32 mm cylinder, with 345.6 N available in each direction at 0.5 MPa.
Reciprocating slide on a packaging line
A 100 mm stroke shuttle carrying a small tray between two pick points, where the back-end rod carries a sensor flag for the CMSE / DMSE switch and the 30-500 mm/s speed band covers cycle rates.
Bench-top crimp station
Crimping terminal lugs needs about 21 kg of real work force at 0.5 MPa - inside this bore's usable band - and the short ISO 21287 body fits under a low bench frame.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X100SB with the ACED32X100SB
Size both ways: the 25 mm bore gives 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to 40 mm raises it to 571.8 N - pick 32 mm when your clamp or press load sits between those. The 100 mm stroke is within the 200 mm standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed. Remember a plain through-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the ISO 21287 face. This model is discontinued - order the ACED32X100 and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED32X100SB
- ✓ 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 ACPD32X100SB FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design means both strokes use the rod-side area, so force is equal both ways: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa. At the full 1.0 MPa rating the cylinder reaches 70.5 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
Order the ACED32X100, the current-production ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you keep the same 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke and force class. The ACP is DIN-standard, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before the swap. The -S magnet on this unit carries over as an option on the ACE for CMSE / DMSE switches.
