Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X45SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X45SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø32mm bore and 45mm 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 ACQD32X45SB
The AirTAC ACQD32X45SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin rods that exit from both body ends. Because a rod occupies each chamber, the effective annular area is identical in both directions, yielding equal push and pull forces of 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa. This symmetric thrust is ideal for balanced transfer cycles, while the parallel rods resist torsion and extend guide length without needing an external anti-rotation block.
This 32mm bore unit integrates an S magnet for electronic or reed switch sensing and a B male rod-end thread (M14x1.5) for direct load coupling. It relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end for end-of-stroke deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions. Operating pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa, and the PT1/8 porting ensures reliable pneumatic supply.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X45SB Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X45SB |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 45 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 ACQD32X45SB Is Used
Symmetric Transfer Arm
Drives a pick-and-place arm where equal push and pull forces ensure stable part transfer without drift between stations.
Twin-Guided Pusher
Pushes components in a CNC loader using the dual rods to prevent yaw and maintain alignment under offset loads.
Dual-Station Actuation
Uses the second protruding rod end to trigger a mechanical valve or sensor flag on a packaging machine while driving the main load.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X45SB the Right Cylinder?
Select this 32mm bore when your mechanism requires exactly 301.6 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa with symmetric push/pull dynamics. If your application needs less force, stepping down to a 25mm bore provides 188.9 N; conversely, scaling up to a 40mm bore yields 527.8 N. A single-rod ACQ cylinder is preferable if you only need standard unidirectional pushing, whereas a non-rotating TACQ guided unit fits heavy lateral loads. Confirm your build requires the 45mm stroke, male M14x1.5 rod threads, and magnetic feedback before 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 ACQD32X45SB FAQ
It provides equal push and pull forces of 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 422.2 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum holding capacity of 61 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The push and pull forces are identical because the twin rods create the same annular area in both chambers. The maximum standard stroke for this 32mm bore is 100mm.
The twin rods resist torsional movement and provide a longer guide length, eliminating the need for a separate external anti-rotation guide. It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends to absorb impact, not adjustable air cushions. The second rod end can also drive a sensor flag, and the built-in magnet works with reed or solid-state switches.
