This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X300S, 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.

The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X300S 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 ACED32X300S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
Double acting with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD32X300S 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 300 mm stroke is longer than the 200 mm standard limit for a 32 mm bore, so this unit is a non-standard, made-to-order build. This model is discontinued; the current-production successor is the ACED32X300, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before you swap.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters on a 300 mm stroke. As an -S model it carries the optional magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped on for end-of-stroke signals. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X300S (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.
| 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).
| ACPD | DIN compact cylinder (double-rod, discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×300 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing (omit for no magnet). |
| B | Rod type: B = male thread; blank = female thread. |
Replacement mapping (swap P for E): ACP→ACE, ASP→ASE, ATP→ATE, ACPD→ACED, ACPJ→ACEJ. ACP-family: ACP (double acting), ASP / ATP (single acting push / pull), ACPD (double rod), ACPJ (double rod, adjustable stroke).
The through-rod drives a sliding fixture on a PCB burn-in rig, with the rear rod carrying a DMSE switch flag so the controller logs every cycle at 30-500 mm/s.
Equal 345.6 N force in both directions seats and ejects a connector housing from the same tooling, no direction-dependent tuning needed.
The 300 mm made-to-order stroke swings a machine guard gate on a packaging line, with CMSE switches confirming open and closed positions.
At 345.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 32 mm bore suits clamping and transfer tasks in the 200-350 N band; step down to the 25 mm bore (206.2 N) for lighter jigs or up to the 40 mm bore (571.8 N) if your fixture needs more margin. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. The 300 mm stroke is made to order, and FA/FB flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the ISO 21287 face. Order the ACED32X300 as your current-production replacement and verify its dimensions against your drawing.
Replacement checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, output is equal both ways: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa on each stroke (rod-side area). Peak force at 1.0 MPa is 70.5 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um.
No - the standard stroke limit for a 32 mm bore is 200 mm, so 300 mm is a made-to-order build. The ACPD family itself is discontinued; the current direct is the ACED32X300 in the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP was built to a DIN-standard footprint.
