This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X25S, 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 ACPD32X25S
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X25S is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 25mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED32X25S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X25S
Double acting with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD32X25S pushes and pulls with the same 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa), because each stroke works on the rod-side area. The through-rod resists rotation and light side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. This unit carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches mount directly on the body. It is discontinued; the current-production successor is the ACED32X25.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which suits tight jigs and guard rails. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end of travel. FA/FB flange and LB foot brackets bolt to the standard face. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping from the DIN-standard ACP footprint.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X25S (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 ACPD32X25S Is Used
Symmetric part ejection
A 25 mm double-rod stroke kicks finished aluminium brackets off a CNC fixture with equal 345.6 N force whichever way the piston moves, so one valve circuit handles load and unload.
Position-flagged guard slide
The rear rod carries a flag past a CMSE switch (enabled by the -S magnet), confirming a machine guard is fully closed before the PLC releases the start interlock.
Bottle-capping press head
About 207 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa seats snap caps on 10 kg-rated cosmetic filling lines where the short body must fit inside a compact headplate.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X25S with the ACED32X25S
At 345.6 N per side, bore 32 sits between the 25 mm bore (206.2 N) and the 40 mm bore (571.8 N) at 0.5 MPa. If your fixture needs symmetric clamping or a rear sensor rod, the double rod earns its place; otherwise the single-rod ACE covers push-only work. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for held loads. The -S magnet on this model enables CMSE / DMSE position sensing. Order the ACED32X25 as the direct replacement and verify the ISO 21287 hole pattern.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED32X25S
- ✓ 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 ACPD32X25S FAQ
Output is 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, equal in both directions because both strokes use the rod-side area; the maximum at 1.0 MPa is 70.5 kgf. The fitted -S magnet allows CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches for end-of-stroke or mid-stroke detection. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s and operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
The current-production replacement is the ACED32X25, the ISO 21287 version with the same 32 mm bore, 25 mm stroke and force class. The short body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder and accepts FA/FB flange and LB foot hardware. Because the ACP was DIN-standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before the swap.
