Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X175
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X175 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø100mm bore and 175mm stroke. The twin rods resist rotation and give equal push and pull force, so it carries and guides a tool platform without a separate anti-rotation guide.

About the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X175
The AirTAC ACQD100X175 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin rods extending from both ends. Because a rod occupies both internal chambers, the effective annular area remains identical in each direction. This yields perfectly equal push and pull forces of 3524.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 4934.8 N at 0.7 MPa, enabling symmetric cycling without force imbalance.
This 100mm bore variant uses a Ø32mm piston rod, PT3/8 porting, and a female M20x2.5 rod-end thread. The 175mm stroke is a made-to-order long-stroke configuration exceeding the 100mm standard maximum. Fixed NBR elastomer bumpers absorb end-of-stroke impact, while the dual rods provide extended guide length and resist rotation, eliminating the need for an external anti-rotation guide.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X175 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X175 |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø100 mm |
| Stroke | 175 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, double rod |
| Port size | PT3/8 |
| Rod end thread | M20×2.5 female / M26×1.5 male (B) |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 500 mm/s |
| Cushion | Bumper (both ends) |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 100 mm |
Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACQD datasheet. A rod exits both ends, so both directions use the same annular area. Confirm against the product label before installation.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm — equal both ways)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3525 N | 3525 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 4935 N | 4935 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 719 kgf | |
Because a rod occupies both chambers, push and pull forces are EQUAL — the annular area applies in each direction. Actual usable force is lower due to friction; size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X175 Is Used
Twin-Guided Pusher
Drives a wide format pusher in paper converting machinery, using the dual rods to prevent platform twist under heavy 4934.8 N loads.
Symmetric Transfer Unit
Powers an equal-force transfer carriage in automotive assembly, ensuring identical clamping pressure during both extension and retraction strokes.
Dual-Station Actuation
Actuates a secondary tooling flag on the rear rod end in large packaging equipment, timing two separate mechanisms from one compact body.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X175 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 100mm bore, the neighboring 80mm option yields 2267.8 N and the 125mm yields 5733.8 N at 0.5 MPa. Choose this model when your application demands matched push/pull dynamics and a 175mm travel. If pure thrust matters more than equal force, a single-rod ACQ might suffice. For gripping or high moment loads, a guided TACQ cylinder fits better. This non-magnet variant lacks a sensor piston; add the -S suffix if switch detection is required. Note that a plain ACQD cannot hold a load on air loss—install an external rod lock or pilot check valve for fail-safe positioning.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Equal force both ways at your pressure
- ✓ Anti-rotation needed (twin rods)?
- ✓ Both rod ends usable for tooling?
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Female (blank) or male (B) rod thread
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Both rods share the load — keep force concentric.
- check Twin rods resist rotation but avoid heavy side load.
- check Handle the C-clip carefully; seat it fully in its groove.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X175 FAQ
Push and pull forces are equal at 3524.8 N @0.5 MPa and 4934.8 N @0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 719 kgf @1.0 MPa. The 175mm stroke is a made-to-order long-stroke exceeding the 100mm standard max. It features a Ø32mm rod, female M20x2.5 thread, and PT3/8 port.
The twin rods resist rotation and add guide length. Fixed NBR elastomer bumpers absorb end impact at 30-500 mm/s, but this is not an adjustable air cushion. A plain ACQD does not hold position on air loss; you must add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for fail-safe holding.
