This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X35B, 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 ACPD32X35B is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 35mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED32X35B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACPD32X35B is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP family, now discontinued. A 12 mm rod exits both covers, so the 32 mm bore delivers 345.6 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa) because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The B code gives a male rod thread and the port is 1/8" PT. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarding where a full-length body cannot.
Because the through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, it suits pick-and-place heads and synchronized tooling; the rear rod can also carry a sensor flag. A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends and speed runs 30-500 mm/s over 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). This model is discontinued: the current-production direct is ACED32X35 in the ISO 21287 series - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP is DIN-standard.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X35B (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. |
| ×35 | 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).
A machining cell that clamps a housing from both faces uses the twin 12 mm rods to apply 345.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa, keeping the fixture symmetric without a second cylinder.
An electronics assembly gantry strokes 35 mm between pick and place; the through-rod resists rotation of the gripper plate and the rear rod carries a position flag.
A small bearing press-in station uses the 483.8 N available at 0.7 MPa for light press work, with the fixed TPU bumpers absorbing the return stop at each end.
At 35 mm stroke this sits well inside the 200 mm max standard stroke for bore 32, so no made-to-order length is needed. If 345.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa is more than the job needs, the ACPD25X35 gives 206.2 N; if you need more, the ACPD40X35 reaches 571.8 N. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the optional -S code enables CMSE / DMSE switches (this unit, without S, carries no magnet). Order ACED32X35 as the current replacement.
Replacement checklist
No - it is a double-rod cylinder, so force is equal both ways. At 0.5 MPa you get 345.6 N per direction, at 0.7 MPa 483.8 N per direction, and the maximum at 1.0 MPa is 70.5 kgf. Both strokes use the rod-side area because a 12 mm rod exits each cover. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s.
The hard-anodized aluminium body follows the short DIN-standard ACP format, saving roughly 50% of the mounting length compared with an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The ACPD family is discontinued; the current-production direct is ACED32X35 (ISO 21287, same bore, stroke and force class). Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, and remember the magnet is only fitted when the -S code is ordered.
