Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X200B
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X200B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø100mm bore and 200mm 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 ACQD100X200B
The AirTAC ACQD100X200B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a 100mm bore and a 200mm stroke. Because twin piston rods protrude from both ends, the annular piston area remains identical in each direction. This yields perfectly balanced thrust, generating 3524.8N at 0.5MPa and 4934.8N at 0.7MPa for both extension and retraction. The extended 200mm travel distance exceeds the standard 100mm maximum for this bore size, making it a made-to-order long-stroke variant.
A male M26x1.5 thread on the rod end couples directly to your tooling. The dual-rod architecture inherently resists torsion and lengthens the guide bearing path, eliminating the need for an external anti-rotation guide while allowing a secondary load or sensor flag to mount on the opposite end. Deceleration relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends rather than adjustable air cushions. PT3/8 ports supply the compressed air, and while the body retains sensor grooves, this specific SKU ships without a piston magnet.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X200B Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X200B |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø100 mm |
| Stroke | 200 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 ACQD100X200B Is Used
Twin-Guided Pusher
Drives a wide format pusher plate in packaging machinery where the dual rods prevent torsional sag over the 200mm travel without needing a separate external guide.
Symmetric Transfer
Powers a dual-station actuation arm in automated assembly lines, using the equal push and pull thrust to move components consistently in both directions.
Secondary Load Drive
Actuates a primary clamping mechanism on a machining center while the opposing rod end simultaneously drives a mechanical sensor flag for position tracking.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X200B the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 100mm bore actuator when a symmetric push-pull cycle requiring 3524.8N at 0.5MPa (or 4934.8N at 0.7MPa) must handle a 200mm reach. If your application needs less force, stepping down to an 80mm bore provides 2267.8N at 0.5MPa. For higher thrust, a 125mm bore yields 5733.8N at 0.5MPa. If your design only requires unidirectional thrust, a single-rod ACQ series saves space. For heavy lateral loads exceeding the guide capacity of a 200mm stroke, a guided TACQ module provides extra structural support. Confirm the male M26x1.5 rod thread, PT3/8 port size, and the 200mm made-to-order travel when ordering.
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 ACQD100X200B FAQ
It delivers an equal push and pull force of 3524.8N at 0.5MPa and 4934.8N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum capacity of 719kgf at 1.0MPa. The push and pull forces are identical because the twin rods create the same annular area in both chambers. The 200mm stroke is a long-stroke made-to-order variant, as the standard maximum for a 100mm bore is 100mm.
It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends to absorb shock, meaning there is no adjustable air cushion. For high-speed applications, you should add an external shock absorber. Additionally, it does not hold position if air pressure is lost; a separate external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required for fail-safe load holding.
