Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X175S
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X175S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø32mm bore and 175mm 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 ACQD32X175S
The AirTAC ACQD32X175S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a 32mm bore and a 175mm stroke. Because twin rods protrude from both ends, the annular piston area remains identical in either travel direction. This yields perfectly balanced push and pull forces, rated at 301.6N at 0.5MPa and 422.2N at 0.7MPa. The extended 175mm length is a made-to-order variant surpassing the standard 100mm maximum for this bore size.
A rod diameter of 16mm boosts structural stiffness, while the PT1/8 port manages pneumatic flow. Fixed NBR elastomer bumpers absorb impact energy at stroke extremes, requiring no manual cushion adjustment. The integrated -S piston magnet pairs seamlessly with reed or solid-state electronic switches fitted into the body grooves. Furthermore, the secondary rod end can drive an external sensor flag or synchronize a secondary load.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X175S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X175S |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 175 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 ACQD32X175S Is Used
Symmetric Transfer Arms
Drives dual-sided pick-and-place arms in electronics assembly, using the equal push and pull thrust to maintain perfectly balanced horizontal part transfer.
Twin-Guided Pusher Stations
Actuates a multi-stage pusher on a packaging conveyor, where the twin rods prevent platform rotation without needing an external guide pillar.
Dual-Station Actuation
Powers a dual-station clamping fixture in CNC machining centers, using the second rod end to trigger a physical cam or external sensor flag.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X175S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this unit, consider the adjacent bore options: the 25mm version yields 188.9N at 0.5MPa, whereas the 40mm variant generates 527.8N. If your mechanism requires unbalanced push power exceeding pull strength, a single-rod ACQ cylinder is preferable. For applications demanding extreme lateral load capacity without rotational play, a guided TACQ module provides superior support. To configure this exact long-stroke model, specify the 32mm bore, 175mm stroke, female M8x1.25 rod end, and the -S magnet option.
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 ACQD32X175S FAQ
It delivers an equal push and pull force of 301.6N at 0.5MPa and 422.2N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum capacity of 61kgf at 1.0MPa. The push and pull strengths are identical because the twin rods occupy both chambers, creating equal annular areas. This 175mm stroke is a made-to-order long-stroke variant, exceeding the standard 100mm maximum for a 32mm bore.
It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends to absorb impact energy, meaning there are no adjustable air cushions to tune. A plain ACQD does not hold its load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the rod will drift. For fail-safe load holding, you must install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
