Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD25X5SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD25X5SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø25mm bore and 5mm 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 ACQD25X5SB
The AirTAC ACQD25X5SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin Ø12mm rods that exit both ends of the body. Because a rod occupies each chamber, the annular area is identical in both directions, generating an equal 188.9N of push and pull force at 0.5MPa. This symmetric output is ideal for balanced transfer cycles.
The dual-rod architecture inherently resists rotation and extends guide length, allowing you to carry a small tool platform directly without adding a separate external guide. This 25mm bore unit includes a male M10x1.25 rod end thread for direct load coupling, fixed TPU bumpers at each end for end-of-stroke deceleration, and a built-in magnet compatible with reed or solid-state switches.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD25X5SB Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD25X5SB |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø25 mm |
| Stroke | 5 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, double rod |
| Port size | M5×0.8 |
| Rod end thread | M6×1.0 female / M10×1.25 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 (Ø25mm — equal both ways)
| 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.

Where the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD25X5SB Is Used
Symmetric Transfer Shuttle
Drives a dual-sided pick-and-place shuttle in electronics assembly where matching push and pull forces prevent part deformation during reversal.
Twin-Guided Pusher
Pushes workpieces on a conveyor using a directly mounted tool plate, relying on the two rods to prevent torsional deflection without an external guide rail.
Dual-Station Actuation
Actuates a secondary mechanism or sensor flag from the rear rod end on a packaging machine while the front rod drives the primary sealing jaw.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD25X5SB the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 25mm bore provides 188.9N (0.5MPa) or 264.5N (0.7MPa) of equal bidirectional force. If your application requires less thrust, stepping down to the 20mm bore yields 117.8N, while moving up to the 32mm bore provides 301.6N. A standard single-rod ACQ cylinder is preferable if you only need unidirectional pushing and want maximum forward force, whereas this ACQD variant is chosen specifically when anti-rotation and symmetric pull/push are required. Confirm your ordering essentials: this configuration includes the -S magnet, -B male rod thread, and a 5mm stroke.
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 ACQD25X5SB FAQ
The ACQD25X5SB provides equal push and pull forces of 188.9N at 0.5MPa and 264.5N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum capacity of 39kgf at 1.0MPa. Push equals pull because the twin rods create identical annular areas on both sides. The standard stroke maximum is 100mm, the port is M5x0.8, and it features a male M10x1.25 rod thread.
It uses fixed TPU elastomer bumpers at both ends to absorb impact, which are not adjustable; for high-speed cycles, add an external shock absorber. A plain ACQ-type cylinder does not hold its load when air is lost, so for fail-safe positioning, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
