This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X65S, 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 ACPD32X65S is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 65mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED32X65S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD32X65S 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 through-rod resists rotation and light side load, the rear rod can carry a sensor flag, and fixed TPU bumpers pad both ends. This unit carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clamped to the 32 mm barrel for position feedback.
The hard-anodized aluminium body follows the short ISO 21287 footprint, cutting roughly 50% of the mounting length an ISO 15552 profile cylinder would need, which suits tight jigs and guarded assemblies running 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Note that the ACPD line is discontinued; the current-production direct is the ACED32X65, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X65S (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. |
| ×65 | 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 clamps a machined aluminum bracket from both sides of a CNC fixture with equal 345.6 N force, so the part seats square without a reaction block.
With the -S magnet fitted, CMSE switches confirm extend and retract on a small electronics assembly press running 65 mm strokes at 30-500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287 body fits in the 100 mm gap between belt frames, and the rear rod drives a flag that trips a photo-eye on a packaging line.
At 345.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore sits between the 25 mm ACPD (206.2 N) and the 40 mm ACPD (571.8 N), so step up if your clamp needs more margin. The 65 mm stroke is well inside the 200 mm standard limit for this bore. The female M8x1.25 rod thread takes standard I/Y knuckles, and FA/FB flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the ISO 21287 face. Since a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check for held loads. Order the ACED32X65 as the current replacement for this discontinued model.
Replacement checklist
Both directions are identical because the double rod exposes the rod-side area on each stroke: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, with a peak of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. 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, temperature -20 to +70 C.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight gantries and guarding. This model carries the optional -S magnet, letting CMSE or DMSE switches report end positions. Fixed TPU bumpers pad both ends, and since the ACPD is discontinued, the ACED32X65 is the current direct - verify ISO 21287 mounting dimensions first.
