The AirTAC Airtac ACQ Ultra Thin Air Cylinder ACQ80X150SH is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder built to JIS dimensions, with a Ø80mm bore and 150mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and a C-clip / riveted short body that saves mounting depth. Magnetic-switch slots around the body accept position sensors.
The AirTAC ACQ80X150SH is a double-acting, single-rod JIS compact cylinder engineered for demanding motion tasks. It generates 2513.2 N of push force and 2267.8 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a hard-anodized 80 mm bore. Because the 150 mm stroke exceeds the 100 mm standard maximum for this bore, it is manufactured as a dedicated long-stroke variant within the Ø32-Ø100 extended range.
This unit features a built-in piston magnet (-S) compatible with AirTAC reed or electronic solid-state switches via peripheral sensor slots. Instead of an adjustable air cushion, it relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends to absorb end-stop impact. For high kinetic energy applications, operators should slow the approach speed or mount an external shock absorber, as the fixed bumper cannot be field-tuned.

Provides 2513.2 N of extend force at 0.5 MPa to seat heavy drivetrain components on an automotive production line, utilizing the 150 mm stroke for deep press travel.
Actuates a heavy-duty routing gate on a packaging conveyor, where the long 150 mm stroke fully retracts the guide arm to clear oversized pallet traffic.
Raises and lowers a heavy sanding head on a CNC router, relying on the 80 mm bore's 513 kgf maximum push capacity to elevate the spindle assembly securely.
When sizing this 80 mm bore model, consider stepping down to the 63 mm bore (1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa) for lighter loads, or stepping up to the 100 mm bore (3927.0 N push at 0.5 MPa) for heavier thrust requirements. To order, confirm the 80 mm bore, 150 mm non-standard stroke, PT3/8 port, female M16x2.0 rod thread, and the integrated magnet.
Note that a standard ACQ body does not hold its position if air pressure drops or the directional valve centers; the rod will drift. To safely suspend or hold a load without live pressure, an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve must be installed.
Quick checklist
This 80 mm bore cylinder delivers 2513.2 N push and 2267.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 3518.5 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa, with a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.
It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end rather than an adjustable air cushion, so high-speed approaches may require an external shock absorber. Additionally, it does not hold its load on air loss; an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required for fail-safe positioning.
