This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED63X50, 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 ACPD63X50
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD63X50 is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 50mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED63X50 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD63X50
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD63X50 delivers 1458.1 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa because both strokes work on the rod-side area of the 63 mm bore. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, gives a symmetric mounting face, and lets the rear rod carry a sensor flag on packaging or assembly machinery. Its short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight gantries and guarding where a full-length body will not fit.
The hard-anodized aluminium body carries aluminium covers with a fixed TPU bumper at each end, and the S45C hard-chrome 16 mm rod runs at 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Note that this model is discontinued: the current-production direct is the ACED63X50, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. Position holding is not built in - if the load must stay put when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED63X50 (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 (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1458 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2041 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 297 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 ACPD63X50 Is Used
Reciprocating transfer gantry
The through-rod carries a gripper on the front and a flag on the rear rod, moving trays between two conveyor lanes with 1458.1 N available in each direction at 0.5 MPa.
Push-off station on an assembly fixture
A 50 mm stroke ejects finished housings from a nest; the short ISO 21287 body fits inside the fixture frame where a full-length profile cylinder cannot.
Pallet strapping press
With about 875 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa, the cylinder seats strapping buckles on cartons, the fixed TPU bumpers absorbing the end-of-stroke impact at 30-500 mm/s.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD63X50 with the ACED63X50
For a 50 mm stroke with equal force both ways, this 63 mm bore gives 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa. If your load needs less, the 50 mm bore offers 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa; if you need more, step up to the 80 mm bore at 2356.2 N. The female M10x1.5 rod thread and PT ports suit standard fittings, and FA/FB flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the ISO 21287 face. The magnet is not fitted on this code - order the -S version if you need CMSE or DMSE switches. Since the ACPD is discontinued, specify the ACED63X50 as the current replacement and verify the mounting dimensions.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED63X50
- ✓ 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 ACPD63X50 FAQ
Yes - because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area of the 63 mm bore. Output is 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction, with a maximum of 297.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed 30-500 mm/s.
Order the ACED63X50, the current-production ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you get the same 63 mm bore, 50 mm stroke and force class with a matching short body and mounting family. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before the swap, since the ACP was built to a DIN-standard footprint. Also remember the magnet is the optional -S code, needed for CMSE or DMSE switches.
