This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X150SB, 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 ACPD32X150SB
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X150SB 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 ACED32X150SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X150SB
This double acting compact cylinder pushes a rod out of BOTH covers, so the 32 mm bore delivers an identical 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa) in each direction - the through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. The male rod thread (B code) and the fitted -S magnet make it ready for CMSE / DMSE switches straight out of the box. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s with a fixed TPU bumper at each end.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight jigs, guards and gantries. Note: the ACPD family is discontinued; the current-production direct is the ACED32X150 (same bore, stroke and force class), so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X150SB (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 ACPD32X150SB Is Used
Reciprocating transfer slide
A 150 mm stroke with equal 345.6 N force in both directions suits a push-pull slide on an electronics assembly line, where the rear rod drives a flag past a CMSE switch for end-of-travel confirmation.
Symmetric jig clamping
On a machining fixture for aluminium housings, the through-rod lets one cylinder seat a part and eject it with the same 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, halving the actuator count in tight die space.
Packaging gate diverter
A bottling line diverter gate needs identical force on extend and retract to swing cartons between lanes; the 32 mm double-rod body fits the narrow guard channel beside a 400 mm wide conveyor.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X150SB with the ACED32X150SB
Size both ways: if 345.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa is more than the job needs, the 25 mm bore gives 206.2 N; if you need more, the 40 mm bore reaches 571.8 N. Both use the same rod-side area logic, so push equals pull. This unit cannot hold a load when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if position must be retained. FA/FB flange and LB foot mounts bolt to the standard face, and the -S magnet is already fitted for CMSE / DMSE switches. For new projects, order the ACED32X150 instead - the ACPD is discontinued.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED32X150SB
- ✓ 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 ACPD32X150SB FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, output is equal both ways: 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. The 32 mm bore has a 12 mm rod, 1/8" PT ports, M8x1.25 female rod thread (male here via the B code), 150 mm stroke within the 200 mm standard limit, operating pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), -20 to +70 C, and 30-500 mm/s speed.
It follows the ISO 21287 compact format, cutting about 50% of the mounting length compared with an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow fixtures and guard channels. A fixed TPU bumper pads each end of travel - it only decelerates the piston and never locks or holds a load, so use a rod lock or pilot check where position must be kept. This model is discontinued; the ACED32X150 is the current direct, so verify ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before ordering.
