This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED63X65, 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 ACPD63X65 is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 65mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED63X65 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACPD63X65 is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP family, now discontinued. A 16 mm rod exits both covers, so the 63 mm bore delivers an identical 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa (2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke, since both sides work on the rod-side area. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end and the rod runs at 30-500 mm/s.
The hard-anodized aluminium body follows the ISO 21287 short format, saving roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight gantries and guarding where a full-length body cannot. The magnet is not fitted on this code; order the -S variant if you need CMSE or DMSE switches. Replacement: ACED63X65, the current-production ISO 21287 direct.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED63X65 (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 | 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).
| ACPD | DIN compact cylinder (double-rod, discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 63 | 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 drives a pallet shuttle on both faces of a 65 mm stroke, pushing and pulling with the same 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa so the return leg needs no derating.
A jig builder uses the rear rod to actuate a second clamp, letting one 63 mm cylinder serve two clamp points with equal force and a symmetric mount.
On a pick station, the back-end rod carries a flag for a switch when the -S magnet is ordered, giving end-of-stroke signals in a body about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
At 65 mm stroke this sits well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for the 63 mm bore, so it is a catalog item, not a made-to-order build. If 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa is more than the job needs, the 50 mm bore gives 881.2 N; if you need more, the 80 mm bore reaches 2356.2 N. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, so 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 -S code adds the magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches. For new projects, specify ACED63X65 and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
Replacement checklist
Yes. Because a 16 mm rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa, equal every way, with a maximum of 297.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, temperature -20 to +70 C.
Order ACED63X65, the current-production ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you keep the same 63 mm bore, 65 mm stroke and force class. The ACP is DIN-standard, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. FA/FB flange and LB foot brackets, plus the optional -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches, are selected the same way.
