The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD25X10SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø25mm bore and 10mm 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.
The AirTAC ACQD25X10SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin rods extending from both body ends. Because a piston rod occupies each chamber, the annular area remains identical in both directions. This yields an equal push and pull force of 188.9N at 0.5MPa and 264.5N at 0.7MPa, ensuring perfectly symmetric cycle dynamics. The Ø12mm rods provide extended guide length and high torsional resistance without needing an external anti-rotation guide.
Equipped with a male M10x1.25 rod-end thread (-B), it couples directly to tooling platforms. The included magnet (-S) slides within integrated switch grooves, functioning seamlessly with reed or solid-state sensors. Fixed TPU bumpers absorb impact at stroke limits, while the M5x0.8 ports supply air efficiently across the 10mm stroke.

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.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 189 N | 189 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 264 N | 264 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 39 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.

Thread: PT standard (G / NPT available). The twin rods resist rotation and add guiding length. Related: ACQ (single rod), ACQJ (adjustable stroke), TACQ (guided).
Drives a dual-sided pick-and-place head in electronics assembly, using the equal push/pull force to shuttle components between stations without rotational drift.
Carries a small machining fixture on a packaging line, leveraging the two Ø12mm rods to maintain precise perpendicularity across the 10mm stroke.
Indexes a sensor flag on the rear rod while the front rod drives a clamping jaw in a semi-automated lathe, saving space with its compact riveted body.
For 188.9N bidirectional thrust at 0.5MPa, this 25mm bore is ideal. If lower force suffices, the 20mm bore provides 117.8N. For heavier loads, the 32mm bore offers 301.6N. If your application only requires standard single-rod push action, the ACQ series fits better. For high-energy cycling over the 10mm stroke, consider an external shock absorber since the TPU bumpers are fixed. Confirm the male M10x1.25 thread and M5x0.8 port suit your pneumatics layout.
Quick checklist
It delivers an equal push and pull force of 188.9N at 0.5MPa and 264.5N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum capacity of 39kgf at 1.0MPa. Push and pull forces are identical because the twin rods create equal annular areas on both sides. The maximum standard stroke for this 25mm bore is 100mm.
The -S magnet allows tracking by reed or solid-state switches. Fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the piston at end positions but are not adjustable. Note that a plain ACQD does not hold position on air loss; for fail-safe load holding, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
