The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X200SB 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.
The AirTAC ACQD32X200SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a 32mm bore and a 200mm stroke. Because twin rods exit both ends, the annular piston area remains identical in each direction, yielding perfectly equal push and pull forces of 301.6N at 0.5MPa and 422.2N at 0.7MPa. This symmetric thrust is ideal for bi-directional cycling. This variant includes the S magnet option for position sensing and B male M14x1.5 rod-end threads for direct load coupling.
Exceeding the standard 100mm limit for this bore, the 200mm travel is a made-to-order long-stroke configuration. The twin rods provide extended guide length and inherent anti-rotation properties, eliminating the need for a separate external guide. NBR elastomer bumpers fixed at both ends absorb end-of-stroke impact, while the PT1/8 port supplies air. Note that a standard cylinder drifts if air pressure is lost; an external rod lock or pilot check valve is required for fail-safe holding.

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 | 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.

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 bi-directional parts shuttle on an assembly line where equal push and pull thrust ensures consistent cycle times in both directions without torque bias.
Pushes workpieces on a conveyor using a fixture mounted to the twin rods, relying on the inherent anti-rotation resistance to prevent jaw deflection over the 200mm travel.
Uses the second protruding rod end to trip a mechanical flag or drive a secondary mechanism on a packaging machine, synchronizing two actions from one compact body.
Selecting this model requires evaluating the 301.6N (at 0.5MPa) thrust against neighboring bores: a 25mm bore yields 188.9N, while a 40mm bore provides 527.8N. Choose the ACQD32X200SB when your application requires moderate symmetric force over a 200mm distance. If your mechanism only needs single-direction thrust, a single-rod ACQ32 offers a more compact footprint. For applications demanding extreme lateral load capacity, a guided TACQ series might be preferable. Confirm your ordering essentials: 32mm bore, 200mm nonstandard stroke, S magnet for electronic or reed switches, and B male M14x1.5 rod threads.
Quick checklist
The push and pull forces are equal at 301.6N @0.5MPa and 422.2N @0.7MPa, with a maximum capacity of 61kgf @1.0MPa. The 200mm stroke is a made-to-order long-stroke variant exceeding the 100mm standard maximum. It features a 16mm rod diameter, PT1/8 port, and B option male M14x1.5 rod-end threads. Push and pull forces match because the twin rods create identical annular areas on both sides.
The dual-rod design inherently resists rotation and provides a longer guide length without external guides. Fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke impact instead of adjustable air cushions. The S option includes a piston magnet compatible with both reed and solid-state electronic switches mounted in the body grooves.
