Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X30SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X30SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø100mm bore and 30mm 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 ACQD100X30SB
The ACQD100X30SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder where a 32mm piston rod exits both ends. Because a rod occupies each chamber, the annular area is identical in both directions. This means push and pull forces are perfectly equal at 3524.8N (0.5MPa) and 4934.8N (0.7MPa), with a maximum 719kgf at 1.0MPa.
The twin rods provide extended guiding length and high torsional resistance without needing an external guide. This SB configuration includes a male M26x1.5 rod end for direct mounting, a piston magnet for electronic or reed switches, and fixed NBR bumpers. It operates at 30-500mm/s with PT3/8 ports.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X30SB Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X30SB |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø100 mm |
| Stroke | 30 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 ACQD100X30SB Is Used
Precision Pressing
Equal push and pull force ensures consistent 4934.8N clamping pressure in both directions on automated assembly presses.
Symmetric Transfer
The twin rods prevent platform rotation while shifting heavy machining fixtures between dual stations.
Dual-Station Actuation
Mount a secondary tool or sensor flag on the opposing rod end to trigger sequence valves on packaging machinery.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X30SB the Right Cylinder?
This 100mm bore generates 3524.8N of force both ways. If your application requires slightly less push, the 80mm bore provides 2267.8N at 0.5MPa; stepping up to the 125mm bore yields 5733.8N. Choose this double-rod ACQD over a single-rod ACQ when symmetric force or anti-rotation is mandatory. Note that the fixed elastomer bumper cannot replace an external shock absorber for heavy high-speed loads, and a pilot check valve is required to hold position during air loss.
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 ACQD100X30SB FAQ
The push and pull forces are equal because the rod occupies both chambers. It outputs 3524.8N at 0.5MPa and 4934.8N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum 719kgf at 1.0MPa. The standard stroke limit for this 100mm bore is 100mm.
No. The fixed NBR elastomer bumper only decelerates the piston near the stroke end and does not lock the rod on air loss. For high-energy cycles, use an external shock absorber, and install a pilot-operated check valve for fail-safe load holding.
