Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X200S
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X200S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø32mm bore and 200mm 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 ACQD32X200S
The AirTAC ACQD32X200S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin Ø16mm rods that exit both ends of the riveted body. Because a rod occupies each chamber, the effective annular area is identical in both directions, yielding equal push and pull forces of 301.6N at 0.5MPa and 422.2N at 0.7MPa. This symmetry is ideal for applications requiring balanced bidirectional cycles. The extended 200mm travel makes this unit a long-stroke, made-to-order variant exceeding the standard 100mm maximum for this bore.
Twin rods inherently resist torsion and provide a longer bearing length, allowing the unit to support and guide a tool platform without needing an external anti-rotation guide. The second rod end can drive a sensor flag or a secondary load. Deceleration relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end, not adjustable air cushions. The integrated -S piston magnet works with both reed and electronic solid-state switches fitted into the body grooves. Note that a standard compact cylinder drifts if air pressure is lost; secure positioning requires an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X200S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X200S |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 200 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 ACQD32X200S Is Used
Symmetric Transfer Pusher
Drives a dual-sided parts shuttle on an electronics assembly line, utilizing the equal 422.2N force to push and pull components with identical energy.
Twin-Guided Stacking Arm
Lifts and lowers a packaging tool platform using both rod ends, leveraging the anti-rotation properties to prevent binding over the 200mm travel.
Dual-Station Actuation
Moves a CNC machine fixture where one rod end drives the clamp and the opposite end triggers a solid-state sensor flag for position confirmation.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X200S the Right Cylinder?
This 32mm bore generates 301.6N at 0.5MPa, sitting between the 20mm option (117.8N) and the 40mm option (527.8N). If your layout only needs force in one direction, a single-rod ACQ provides greater forward thrust. For lateral loads exceeding the guide capacity of this 200mm stroke, a guided TACQ cylinder is recommended. Specify the ACQD32X200S with the -S magnet, default female M8x1.25 rod ends, and PT1/8 ports.
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 ACQD32X200S FAQ
It delivers equal push and pull forces of 301.6N at 0.5MPa and 422.2N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum capacity of 61kgf at 1.0MPa. The 200mm stroke is a long-stroke variant (standard max is 100mm). Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0MPa. Push and pull are equal because the double-rod design creates the same annular piston area in both directions.
End-of-stroke deceleration uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers, not adjustable air cushions. The -S option includes a piston magnet compatible with reed or electronic solid-state switches. It does not hold position on air loss; the rod drifts, so an external rod lock or pilot check valve is required for fail-safe holding.
