This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X300, 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 ACPD32X300
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X300 is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 300mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED32X300 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X300
A double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the DIN-standard ACP pattern, the ACPD32X300 pushes and pulls with the same 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa because a 12 mm rod exits both covers and every stroke works on the rod-side area. The 300 mm stroke is longer than the 200 mm standard maximum for a 32 mm bore, so it is a made-to-order build. The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is how a 300 mm travel can still fit a narrow gantry or guard.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, so the rear rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tool while the front rod does the work. Fixed TPU bumpers sit at both ends, speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and the hard-anodized aluminium body carries 1/8" ports. This model is discontinued; the current-production replacement is the ACED32X300 in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X300 (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 ACPD32X300 Is Used
Push-pull transfer on a PCB pallet line
The through-rod ejects a pallet one way while the rear rod returns a fixture plate, both strokes delivering the same 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa with no direction penalty.
Gantry depth stop with rear sensor flag
The back-end rod carries a flag past a switch to confirm full retract on a 300 mm slide, keeping the front rod free for the clamping or pressing tool.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X300 with the ACED32X300
Size both ways: if 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa is more than the job needs, the ACPD25X300 gives 206.2 N in the same double-rod format; if you need more, step up to the ACPD40X300 at 571.8 N. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the standard face, and the optional -S magnet (this model has none) enables CMSE / DMSE switches. Order the ACED32X300 instead: it is the current direct successor, but verify the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions first.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED32X300
- ✓ 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 ACPD32X300 FAQ
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so output is equal both ways: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa on every stroke, since both sides work on the rod-side area. Maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 70.5 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 300 mm stroke is a made-to-order length above the 200 mm standard maximum for this bore.
Not as supplied - this model has no magnet. The magnet is the optional -S ordering code; with -S fitted, AirTAC CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches clamp to the body. For replacement, the ACPD family is discontinued: order the ACED32X300, the current ISO 21287 direct in the same bore, stroke and force class, and confirm the mounting dimensions against your fixture before the swap.
