This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X35S, 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 ACPD32X35S
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X35S 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 ACED32X35S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X35S
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD32X35S delivers 345.6 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The 32 mm bore carries a 12 mm through-rod with a female M8x1.25 thread, and the S code means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted directly on the hard-anodized aluminium body. The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it suits tight jigs and guarded stations.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag on a clamping or transfer station. Note that this model is discontinued: the current-production direct is the ACED32X35, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X35S (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 ACPD32X35S Is Used
Benchtop press-fit of bushings
The 345.6 N per direction at 0.5 MPa presses small bushings into aluminium housings on an electronics assembly bench, and the equal return force ejects the part without a second cylinder.
Gantry Z-axis part present check
With the fitted magnet and a DMSE switch on each end, the through-rod confirms extend and retract positions on a PCB handling gantry where the short body fits under the frame.
Reciprocating shuttle on a packaging line
A rod on each cover lets the back-end rod carry a tooling plate while the front rod drives the load, pushing cartons between lanes at 30-500 mm/s with a fixed TPU bumper at each end.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X35S with the ACED32X35S
At 345.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa, this bore sits between the 25 mm (206.2 N) and 40 mm (571.8 N) options in the same compact family. Step down to 25 mm for lighter pick-and-place loads, or up to 40 mm when clamping force must rise without lengthening the body. The 35 mm stroke is well inside the 200 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 32, so no made-to-order build is needed. Because the piston drifts when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must be held. FA/FB flange or LB foot mounting bolts to the standard face, and the magnet is already fitted under the S code for CMSE / DMSE switches. For new projects, order the ACED32X35 instead, then verify the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED32X35S
- ✓ 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 ACPD32X35S FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal in both directions: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, both on the rod-side area. At the full 1.0 MPa rating the bore reaches about 70.5 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed spans 30-500 mm/s.
AirTAC no longer produces the ACPD family. The current direct is the ACED32X35, the ISO 21287 successor in the same bore, stroke and force class. The ACP is DIN-standard, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. The replacement keeps the 1/8" port, the M8x1.25 female rod thread and the optional -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches.
