This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X300B, 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 ACPD32X300B
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X300B 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 ACED32X300B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X300B
A double acting compact cylinder with a through piston rod, the ACPD32X300B pushes and pulls with the same 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa) because both strokes work on the rod-side area of the 32 mm bore. The male rod thread (B code) on each end bolts straight to tooling, and the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag or guide a symmetric fixture. Its ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so a 300 mm stroke still fits a tight gantry.
Note two things before ordering. First, the 300 mm stroke is beyond the 200 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 32, so this unit is made to order. Second, this model is discontinued: the current-production direct is the ACED32X300 in the same bore, stroke and force class, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. The optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; this code has no magnet fitted.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X300B (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 ACPD32X300B Is Used
Reciprocating transfer gantry
The through rod drives a pick head from both ends over a 300 mm shuttle, and the equal 345.6 N force in each direction keeps acceleration identical on the return stroke.
Push-pull fixture on a CNC line
Male rod threads on both ends clamp and eject aluminum housings in one cycle, with the fixed TPU bumper decelerating the piston at each end of the 300 mm travel.
Flag-triggered inspection station
With the optional -S magnet ordered, CMSE or DMSE switches ride the body while the rear rod carries a flag, signaling end positions on a made-to-order long stroke.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X300B with the ACED32X300B
Size the job first: if 345.6 N per direction at 0.5 MPa is more than needed, the ACPD25X300 class gives 206.2 N both ways; if you need more, step up to the 40 mm bore at 571.8 N. A plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. Match FA/FB flange or LB foot mounting to your fixture, order the -S code only if CMSE / DMSE switching is required, and specify the ACED32X300 as the current replacement.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED32X300B
- ✓ 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 ACPD32X300B FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal both ways: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa on the rod-side area of the 32 mm bore, peaking at 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, -20 to +70 C. The 300 mm stroke exceeds the 200 mm standard maximum for bore 32 and is made to order. This model is discontinued; the ACED32X300 is the current direct.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body, an S45C hard-chrome 12 mm rod on each end, a 1/8" PT port and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends. Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Sensors need the optional -S magnet code, which allows CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S there is no magnet. For new builds, order the ACED32X300 and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions.
