Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X80SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X80SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø100mm bore and 80mm 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 ACQD100X80SB
The AirTAC ACQD100X80SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin rods extending from both body ends. Because a shaft occupies each chamber, the annular piston area is identical on extension and retraction. This yields perfectly balanced thrust, giving you 3524.8N at 0.5MPa and 4934.8N at 0.7MPa in either direction without any push-pull disparity.
A 32mm diameter rod passes through seals at both ends, inherently resisting torsion and doubling the bearing span to eliminate separate external anti-rotation guides. The included male M26x1.5 rod-end threads couple directly to tooling, while the second protruding tip can mount a sensor flag or drive an auxiliary mechanism. NBR elastomer bumpers fixed inside the heads absorb end-of-travel impact, and the internal magnet supports reed or solid-state switches.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X80SB Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X80SB |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø100 mm |
| Stroke | 80 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 ACQD100X80SB Is Used
Twin-Guided Pusher
Drives a wide machining fixture where the dual rods prevent plate yaw without needing an external linear guide rail.
Symmetric Transfer
Powers a packaging line transfer carriage with identical force in both directions, ensuring perfectly timed product handoffs.
Dual-Station Actuation
Actuates a heavy stamping press where one rod end moves the tool while the opposite end directly trips a remote mechanical valve.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD100X80SB the Right Cylinder?
Delivering 3524.8N both ways at 0.5MPa, this 100mm bore is a robust step up from the 63mm bore (1401.5N) for heavy automation. If your machine needs less than 2000N, dropping to an 80mm bore saves footprint. The 80mm stroke fits well within the 100mm maximum standard travel for this bore. Remember that a single-rod ACQ is preferable if you only need unidirectional pushing and lack the side-space for dual shafts. For ordering, confirm the PT3/8 port, the male M26x1.5 thread, and the built-in magnet for position sensing.
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 ACQD100X80SB FAQ
It provides equal push and pull forces of 3524.8N at 0.5MPa and 4934.8N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum load capacity of 719kgf at 1.0MPa. The maximum standard stroke available for this 100mm bore is 100mm. Push and pull are identical because the rod occupies both chambers, making the effective piston area the same in either direction.
The twin 32mm rods resist torsion and extend guide length. Fixed NBR bumpers absorb impact at travel ends, though external shock absorbers are recommended for high-energy loads. A standard ACQD does not hold position if air pressure drops; for fail-safe clamping, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
