Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X200SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X200SB 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 ACQD100X200SB
The AirTAC ACQD100X200SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a 100mm bore and a 200mm stroke. Because twin piston rods extend from both body ends, the effective annular area is identical in each direction. This yields equal push and pull forces of 3524.8N at 0.5MPa and 4934.8N at 0.7MPa, enabling perfectly symmetric cycles. The extended 200mm travel is a made-to-order long-stroke variant, exceeding the 100mm standard maximum for this bore size.
Twin rods inherently resist rotation and provide a longer guide length, allowing you to carry a tool platform without needing a separate external anti-rotation guide. The second rod end can drive a sensor flag or a second load. Equipped with the -S magnet, the integrated grooves accept reed or solid-state electronic switches. The -B option provides a male M26x1.5 rod-end thread for direct load coupling. Deceleration relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends, not adjustable air cushions.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X200SB Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X200SB |
|---|---|
| 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 ACQD100X200SB Is Used
Symmetric Transfer Unit
Drives a dual-sided parts transfer mechanism in automotive assembly lines, utilizing the equal push and pull forces to maintain balanced, stable motion over the 200mm travel.
Twin-Guided Pusher
Pushes heavy metal stampings in a press feed system where the twin rods prevent platform twisting and eliminate the need for an external anti-rotation guide.
Dual-Station Actuation
Powers a dual-station clamping fixture on a large machining center, using the second protruding rod end to mechanically trigger a limit valve on the opposite side.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X200SB the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 100mm bore actuator, consider the neighboring standard bores: the 80mm bore yields 2267.8N at 0.5MPa, and the 125mm bore yields 5733.8N at 0.5MPa. Choose this ACQD100X200SB model when your application strictly demands 3524.8N of equal bidirectional force alongside a 200mm travel distance. If your mechanism only needs unidirectional thrust, a single-rod ACQ series cylinder is more space-efficient. For applications requiring heavy lateral load support over the 200mm span, a guided TACQ cylinder might be a better structural fit. Confirm your ordering essentials: this configuration includes the male rod thread (-B), piston magnet (-S), and standard PT3/8 port.
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 ACQD100X200SB FAQ
This cylinder provides an equal push and pull force of 3524.8N at 0.5MPa and 4934.8N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum force of 719kgf at 1.0MPa. Push and pull forces are identical because the double-rod design creates the same annular area in both chambers. The 200mm stroke is a long-stroke made-to-order variant, exceeding the 100mm standard maximum for this 100mm bore.
Deceleration is handled by fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends, which are not adjustable air cushions; for high kinetic energy loads, add an external shock absorber. Additionally, a plain ACQD does not hold its load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered—the rod will drift. For fail-safe holding, an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
