This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X150B, 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 ACPD32X150B
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X150B is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED32X150B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X150B
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod through both covers, the ACPD32X150B pushes and pulls with identical force because each stroke works on the rod-side area: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction. The 32 mm bore drives a 12 mm rod over a 150 mm stroke, fed through 1/8" ports on the PT thread, with a male rod thread at each end from the B code. The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and gantries.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, and the hard-anodized aluminium body pairs with an S45C hard-chrome rod. Note that this model is discontinued: the current-production direct is ACED32X150, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. No magnet is fitted on this code, so position switches cannot be mounted unless you order the optional -S version for CMSE / DMSE switches.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X150B (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 ACPD32X150B Is Used
Symmetric clamp fixture
The equal 345.6 N force in both directions lets a machining fixture clamp and release with one predictable setting, and the male rod thread accepts a standard knuckle on either end.
Reciprocating transfer slide
A rod exiting both covers carries a tooling plate forward while the rear rod drives a limit flag, keeping a 150 mm shuttle stroke square under light side load.
Press-fit ejection station
With about 207 N of usable thrust at 0.5 MPa, the cylinder ejects small pressed bushings from a die nest, and the fixed TPU bumper softens the return at each end.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X150B with the ACED32X150B
Size both ways: the 25 mm bore ACPD delivers 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa while the 40 mm bore reaches 571.8 N, so this 32 mm unit at 345.6 N both ways sits squarely between them for medium clamp-and-return tasks. The 150 mm stroke is within the 200 mm standard range for this bore. Because a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. FA/FB flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the male rod thread (B code) suits external knuckles. This model is discontinued - order ACED32X150 as the current replacement and verify the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED32X150B
- ✓ 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 ACPD32X150B FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design means both strokes use the rod-side area, so force is identical either way: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, speed 30-500 mm/s, on air filtered to 40 um.
AirTAC no longer produces the ACPD family; the current direct is ACED32X150 (swap the P for an E), which matches the same 32 mm bore, 150 mm stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before swapping, since the ACP follows the DIN standard. For sensing, this code has no magnet fitted - order the -S variant to enable CMSE or DMSE switches.
