This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X175B, 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 ACPD32X175B
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X175B is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 175mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED32X175B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X175B
A double acting compact cylinder with a through rod, the ACPD32X175B pushes and pulls with identical force because a rod exits both covers and both strokes work on the rod-side area. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 345.6 N in either direction, rising to 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa. The 32 mm bore and 175 mm stroke sit inside the 200 mm standard range for this bore, and the male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to external tooling on each end.
The hard-anodized aluminium body keeps the mounting length roughly 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight guarding and fixtures. Note this model is discontinued: the current direct is the ACED32X175 in the ISO 21287 family, so confirm mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X175B (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 ACPD32X175B Is Used
Symmetric fixture clamping
The male threaded rod on each end grips a machined aluminum housing from both sides with 345.6 N, so one cylinder replaces two single-rod units in a drilling jig.
Push-and-pull transfer slide
On a packaging line gate, the front rod advances a carton stopper and the rear rod retracts it, both strokes delivering the same 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa.
Flag-driven position feedback
The back-end rod carries a flag past a switch bracket on a robotic gantry, giving end-of-stroke confirmation once the optional -S magnet and CMSE switch are ordered.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X175B with the ACED32X175B
At 345.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore suits clamping and transfer jobs needing 20-35 kgf of symmetric force. Step down to the 25 mm bore (206.2 N) for lighter tooling, or up to the 40 mm bore (571.8 N) when the load grows. The through rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag; add the optional -S magnet code if you want CMSE or DMSE switches. Without -S no magnet is fitted. Like any plain double-rod cylinder it will drift when air is lost, so use a rod lock or pilot check for held loads. For new builds order the ACED32X175, the current replacement.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED32X175B
- ✓ 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 ACPD32X175B FAQ
Output is equal in both directions because the through rod leaves the rod-side area on each stroke: 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.
AirTAC has retired the DIN-standard ACPD range. The current-production replacement is the ACED32X175, an ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same bore, stroke and force class. It is a direct successor, but because the ACP is DIN-standard rather than ISO 21287, verify the mounting dimensions before swapping. The fixed TPU bumper at each end and the 30-500 mm/s speed range carry over.
