About the Airtac ACQ Ultra Thin Air Cylinder ACQ80X100
The AirTAC ACQ80X100 is a double-acting, single-rod JIS compact cylinder engineered to deliver substantial thrust within a minimized axial footprint. By utilizing a riveted piston-to-rod connection and C-clip assembly, the short body design significantly reduces mounting depth compared to conventional round-body units. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it generates 2513.2 N of push force and 2267.8 N of pull force, peaking at a 513 kgf maximum push at 1.0 MPa.
This 80mm bore unit features a 25mm piston rod, a PT3/8 air supply port, and a standard female M16x2.0 rod-end thread. Deceleration at the stroke extremes relies on a fixed NBR elastomer bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, meaning high-speed operations may require external shock absorption. The body includes integrated magnetic-switch grooves, though this specific configuration ships without the internal magnet.

Where the Airtac ACQ Ultra Thin Air Cylinder ACQ80X100 Is Used
Injection Mold Ejection
Provides 2513.2 N of extension force to push finished plastic parts out of injection molding dies within tight machine tooling envelopes.
Press Die Stroking
Drives a 100mm stroke for light-duty pressing or stamping operations where a short overall length minimizes press frame interference.
Heavy Pallet Diversion
Actuates heavy-duty routing gates on packaging lines, using the fixed NBR bumper to absorb the kinetic energy of the 80mm piston at stroke end.
Is the Airtac ACQ Ultra Thin Air Cylinder ACQ80X100 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 80mm model, stepping down to the 63mm bore yields 1558.6 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the 100mm bore provides 3927.0 N. If your application must hold a vertical load or maintain position during a loss of air pressure, note that a plain ACQ cylinder will drift when the valve is centered; an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required for fail-safe holding. To order this exact unit, confirm the 80mm bore, 100mm stroke, PT3/8 port, female M16x2.0 rod thread, and no magnet.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short-body depth vs. a round-body cylinder
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Female (blank) or male (B) rod thread
- ✓ Side load — avoid on a compact rod
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the short piston rod.
- check Very long strokes are unsuitable for the compact body.
- check Handle the C-clip carefully; seat it fully in its groove.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac ACQ Ultra Thin Air Cylinder ACQ80X100 FAQ
The ACQ80X100 delivers a push force of 2513.2 N and a pull force of 2267.8 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 3518.5 N, with a maximum push capacity of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air supply port is PT3/8.
No, the ACQ80X100 uses a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end to absorb end-stop impact. It is not a field-adjustable air cushion. For high-speed or high-energy loads, you should slow the approach speed or add an external shock absorber.
