This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED63X5S, 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 ACPD63X5S
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD63X5S is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 5mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED63X5S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD63X5S
Double acting with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD63X5S pushes and pulls with identical force: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction, since both strokes work on the rod-side area. The 63 mm bore drives a 16 mm through-rod with a female M10x1.5 thread, fed by a 1/8" port, and the 5 mm stroke suits short clamp-and-release or eject moves. This model is discontinued; the current-production direct is the ACED63X5 in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixture plates and guarded cells. The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. This -S version carries the optional magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be fitted. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, speed spans 30-500 mm/s, and pressure runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED63X5S (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 ACPD63X5S Is Used
Bottle capper ejection
The 5 mm stroke and 1458.1 N bidirectional force kick capped bottles off a filling-head nest on a beverage line, with the rear rod carrying a CMSE switch flag to confirm ejection.
Fixture part-present pop-up
A short pop-up pin on a CNC fixture lifts a machined housing 5 mm clear of its locating face; the through-rod keeps the pin true under side load from the operator's hand.
Carton guide deflector
On a carton conveyor, the 63 mm bore deflects boxes between lanes with equal force either way, and the compact body fits under the side guard where a full-length profile cylinder will not.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD63X5S with the ACED63X5S
At 63 mm bore the rod-side force is 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa in both directions. If your move needs less, the 50 mm bore gives 881.2 N; if you need more, the 80 mm bore reaches 2356.2 N at the same pressure. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. The 5 mm stroke is within the 250 mm standard range for this bore. FA/FB flange and LB foot brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face. Since ACPD is discontinued, order the ACED63X5 and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping from the DIN-standard ACP footprint.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED63X5S
- ✓ 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 ACPD63X5S FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal in both directions: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa, on the rod-side area. At the full 1.0 MPa rating the bore reaches about 297.4 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The ACPD family is out of production. The current direct is the ACED63X5, an ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same 63 mm bore, 5 mm stroke and force class with a matching short body and mounting family. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture first, since the ACP was built to the DIN standard, and check outline dimensions on the datasheet.
