Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X10LB
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X10LB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø32mm 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.

About the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X10LB
The AirTAC ACQD32X10LB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder where a piston rod protrudes from both ends. Because a rod occupies both internal chambers, the effective annular area is identical in each direction. This means push and pull forces are perfectly equal at 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa, and 422.2 N at 0.7 MPa, enabling symmetric cycles without force mismatch.
The twin 16mm rods resist rotation and provide a long guide length, allowing you to carry a small tool platform without needing a separate external anti-rotation guide. This specific unit features a 10mm stroke, a PT1/8 port, and a female M8x1.25 rod-end thread. It includes an LB mounting bracket for secure attachment, and relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for end-of-stroke deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X10LB Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X10LB |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 10 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, double rod |
| Port size | PT1/8 |
| Rod end thread | M8×1.25 female / M14×1.5 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 (Ø32mm — equal both ways)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 302 N | 302 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 422 N | 422 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 62 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 ACQD32X10LB Is Used
Symmetric Transfer Pusher
Drives a parts shuttle on an assembly line where identical push and pull forces ensure consistent timing in both directions without momentum drift.
Twin-Guided Stamping Platform
Carries a small stamping head on a 10mm stroke; the dual rods prevent yaw and resist rotation without needing a bulky external linear guide.
Dual-Station Actuation
Uses the second protruding rod end to trigger a mechanical flag or drive a secondary mechanism simultaneously on a packaging machine.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X10LB the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 32mm bore, consider the 422.2 N output at 0.7 MPa. If your application requires less force, stepping down to a 25mm bore yields 264.5 N at 0.7 MPa, while stepping up to a 40mm bore provides 738.9 N at 0.7 MPa. Choose this double-rod ACQD model over a single-rod ACQ when equal bidirectional force or anti-rotation guidance is mandatory. Ensure you specify the LB mounting bracket and female M8x1.25 thread when ordering.
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 ACQD32X10LB FAQ
This 32mm bore double-acting cylinder provides an equal push and pull force of 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 422.2 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum holding force of 61 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Because a rod exits both ends, the annular area is identical both ways, making forces perfectly symmetric. The maximum standard stroke available for this bore is 100mm.
It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends to absorb shock near the stroke limits, rather than adjustable air cushions. Note that a plain ACQ-type cylinder does not hold its load if air pressure is lost or a valve is centered; for fail-safe load holding, you must install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
