Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X70B
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X70B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø32mm bore and 70mm 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 ACQD32X70B
The AirTAC ACQD32X70B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin rods that exit both ends of the body. Because a rod occupies each chamber, the annular piston area is identical in both directions, delivering exactly 301.6 N of force at 0.5 MPa and 422.2 N at 0.7 MPa for both extension and retraction. This symmetry ensures balanced push and pull cycles without the force differential found in single-rod units.
The dual shafts inherently resist rotation and provide a longer guide length, allowing the unit to carry a small tool platform directly without needing an external anti-rotation guide. It features a PT1/8 port, a Ø16 mm rod, and a male M14x1.5 thread on the rod end for direct load coupling. Deceleration is handled by fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end, rather than adjustable air cushions.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X70B Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X70B |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 70 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 ACQD32X70B Is Used
Symmetric Transfer Arms
Drives pick-and-place arms in packaging lines where equal 301.6 N push and pull forces prevent cycle drift during product handoff.
Twin-Guided Pusher
Indexes parts on an assembly conveyor using the dual rods to resist torsional loads without adding an external guide rail.
Dual-Station Actuation
Simultaneously operates two adjacent test fixtures from one body, using the second protruding rod end to drive a secondary mechanism.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD32X70B the Right Cylinder?
With a 32 mm bore and 70 mm stroke, this model yields 301.6 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. Stepping down to a 25 mm bore drops the bidirectional force to 188.9 N, while a 40 mm bore raises it to 527.8 N. Choose this double-rod configuration when symmetric push/pull cycles or anti-rotation support are required; a single-rod ACQ fits better if you only need standard unidirectional thrust, and a TACQ guided cylinder suits heavier lateral loads. This specific unit ships without a magnet, includes the -B male M14x1.5 rod end, and uses a standard PT1/8 port.
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 ACQD32X70B FAQ
The push and pull forces are equal at 301.6 N (0.5 MPa) and 422.2 N (0.7 MPa), with a maximum capacity of 61 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The standard stroke limit for this 32 mm bore is 100 mm. Operating pressure ranges from 0.15-1.0 MPa. Push equals pull because the twin rods create identical annular areas in both chambers.
It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both stroke ends for impact absorption, not adjustable air cushions. A plain ACQD does not hold position if air pressure is lost; the rod will drift. For fail-safe load holding, you must install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
