This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED63X80, 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 ACPD63X80 is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 80mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED63X80 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD63X80 pushes and pulls with identical output because each stroke works on the rod-side area: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction. The 63 mm bore drives a 16 mm through-rod over an 80 mm stroke at 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end to soften the stops. Its hard-anodized aluminium body keeps the mounting length roughly 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight gantries and fixture plates.
Because the rod passes through both covers, the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tool, and the symmetric mount resists rotation and side load. Note that this model is discontinued: the current-production direct is the ISO 21287 ACED63X80, so confirm the mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED63X80 (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. |
| ×80 | 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 steel bracket from both covers at once, delivering 1458.1 N per side at 0.5 MPa inside a fixture plate too short for a full-length profile cylinder.
Equal push and pull force drives a carton pusher back and forth at 30-500 mm/s, with the rear rod carrying a flag for a switch when the -S magnet is ordered.
At 1458.1 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 63 mm bore sits between the 50 mm (881.2 N) and 80 mm (2356.2 N) sizes; step down for lighter clamps or up for heavier presses. The through-rod gives equal force both ways, so it is a poor match for loads that must stay put when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for held positions. Mount it on FA/FB flanges or LB feet, and if you need position sensing, order the -S code to enable CMSE / DMSE switches; this version has no magnet fitted. For new projects, specify the ACED63X80 instead.
Replacement checklist
It is a double-rod cylinder, so output is identical both ways: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa, 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa, and up to 297.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Both strokes use the rod-side area, so push never exceeds pull. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
The hard-anodized aluminium body follows the short ISO 21287-class format, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with FA/FB flange or LB foot mounting and a fixed TPU bumper at each end that only decelerates the stroke. The ACPD63X80 is discontinued; the current direct is the ACED63X80 in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
