This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED63X80SB, 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 ACPD63X80SB
The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD63X80SB 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 ACED63X80SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD63X80SB
This is a double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, so the 63 mm bore delivers the same 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa (2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa) whichever way the piston moves, because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, gives a symmetric mounting point, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, and the male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to your tooling.
The short ISO 21287-class body cuts roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures and guarding. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted for end-position sensing. Note that ACPD is discontinued: the current-production direct is ACED63X80, in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED63X80SB (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 ACPD63X80SB Is Used
Two-sided press station
The through-rod lets a CNC fixture clamp a housing from both covers at 1458.1 N each way, with the rear rod driving a position flag read by a DMSE switch.
Packaging line pusher
A bottling conveyor uses the 80 mm stroke to divert cartons between lanes; the equal push and pull force keeps the return stroke as positive as the extend.
Rotary index counterbalance
A dial-index machine mounts the cylinder as a symmetric counterbalance arm, where the double rod's resistance to side load keeps the linkage true at 30-500 mm/s.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD63X80SB with the ACED63X80SB
Step down to ACPD50X80 (881.2 N) for lighter clamping, or up to ACPD80X80 (2356.2 N) for heavier press-fit work. The 80 mm stroke sits well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 63, so it is a catalogue item, not a made-to-order build. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings suit the ISO 21287 face; the piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. Order ACED63X80 as the current replacement.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED63X80SB
- ✓ 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 ACPD63X80SB 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, 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), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the air must be filtered to 40 um. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be fitted for end-position detection.
Order ACED63X80, the ISO 21287 successor made by swapping the P for an E. It matches the same 63 mm bore, 80 mm stroke and force class, with the same short body that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The ACP is DIN-standard, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions - FA/FB flange or LB foot hole patterns - before swapping it into an existing fixture.
