The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD25X80SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø25mm 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.
The AirTAC ACQD25X80SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin Ø12mm rods exiting both ends. Because a rod occupies each chamber, the annular area is identical in both directions, yielding equal push and pull forces of 188.9N at 0.5MPa and 264.5N at 0.7MPa. This symmetric thrust is ideal for balanced cycling, while the dual rods resist torsion and extend guide length without needing a separate external guide.
Equipped with an -S piston magnet, it supports reed or solid-state sensors via built-in grooves. The -B option provides a male M10x1.25 thread on both rod ends for direct load coupling. It uses fixed TPU bumpers at stroke limits rather than adjustable air cushions, and operates at 30-500mm/s. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; secure loads externally with a rod lock or pilot check valve.

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 small machining head on an electronics assembly line. The dual rods prevent rotational deflection during vertical pressing, ensuring precise alignment without an external guide rail.
Powers a pick-and-place transfer mechanism in packaging. Equal push and pull forces maintain consistent cycle times in both directions, while the second rod end mounts a sensor flag.
Actuates a dual-station clamping fixture on a woodworking machine. The male M10x1.25 threads on both ends allow simultaneous engagement of two separate workstations from one central body.
For 0.5MPa thrust, this 25mm bore provides 188.9N both ways; dropping to a 20mm bore yields 117.8N, while stepping up to 32mm gives 301.6N. Choose this model when your application requires symmetric push/pull cycles and torsional resistance. If a single-direction push suffices, a standard ACQ cylinder is more compact. Verify your porting (M5x0.8) and load coupling needs before ordering.
Quick checklist
It delivers equal push and pull forces of 188.9N at 0.5MPa and 264.5N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum of 39kgf at 1.0MPa. The max standard stroke is 100mm. It features a Ø12mm rod, M5x0.8 port, and male M10x1.25 rod-end threads. Push equals pull because the twin rods create equal annular areas in both chambers.
It uses fixed TPU elastomer bumpers at both ends for end-of-stroke deceleration, not adjustable air cushions. For high-energy loads, add an external shock absorber. It does not hold position on air loss; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for fail-safe load holding.
