This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X225, 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 ACPD32X225
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X225 is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 225mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED32X225 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X225
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD32X225 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 through-rod over a 225 mm stroke, which is beyond the 200 mm standard limit for this bore, so this length is made to order. Its ISO 21287 short body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, letting the cylinder reach deep into a jig or guard without a long body sticking out.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag on machines where the front end is already working. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke impact. Note this model is discontinued; the current-production direct is the ACED32X225, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X225 (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 ACPD32X225 Is Used
Symmetric clamp fixture
The equal 345.6 N force in both directions lets one cylinder clamp and release a machined housing in a CNC fixture with the same grip either way.
Pusher on a packaging line
A 225 mm through-rod pushes cartons off a conveyor and retracts with identical force, the rear rod doubling as a mount for a position flag.
Reciprocating transfer slide
On a small assembly gantry, the through-rod drives a slide back and forth at 30-500 mm/s while resisting the side load of the guided tooling.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X225 with the ACED32X225
At 345.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa, this bore suits clamping and transfer tasks in the 20 kg working range; step down to the 25 mm bore (206.2 N) for lighter fixtures or up to the 40 mm bore (571.8 N) when the load grows. The 225 mm stroke is a made-to-order length, so expect a non-standard lead time. With no magnet fitted, position switches cannot be mounted; order the -S code to enable CMSE or DMSE sensors. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the ISO 21287 face. A plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. Replacement: ACED32X225.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED32X225
- ✓ 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 ACPD32X225 FAQ
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, every stroke uses the rod-side area: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, equal push and pull. At 1.0 MPa the bore reaches a maximum of 70.5 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, air filtered to 40 um, speed 30-500 mm/s.
Bore 32 tops out at a 200 mm standard stroke, so 225 mm is a made-to-order length with a longer lead time. Also note this ACPD model is discontinued: the current direct is the ACED32X225 in the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP is DIN-standard, and order the -S code if you need the optional magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches.
