Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD63X200
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD63X200 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø63mm 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 ACQD63X200
The ACQD63X200 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a 63mm bore and a 200mm stroke. As a double-rod actuator, a piston rod protrudes from both ends, creating identical annular areas inside the chambers. This geometry yields perfectly equal push and pull forces of 1401.5N at 0.5MPa and 1962.2N at 0.7MPa in either direction.
Because the twin rods resist rotation and provide an extended guide length, this unit can directly support a small tool platform without needing an external guide rail. The second rod end is available to drive a sensor flag or a secondary load. It features fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for end-of-stroke deceleration, and the 200mm stroke is a made-to-order long-stroke variant exceeding the 100mm standard maximum for this bore.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD63X200 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD63X200 |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø63 mm |
| Stroke | 200 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, double rod |
| Port size | PT1/4 |
| Rod end thread | M10×1.5 female / M18×1.5 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 (Ø63mm — equal both ways)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1402 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1962 N | 1962 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 286 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 ACQD63X200 Is Used
Symmetric Transfer Shuttle
Drives a packaging line transfer shuttle where the equal push and pull forces ensure consistent cycle times in both directions without requiring pressure compensation.
Twin-Guided Tooling Platform
Carries a CNC machine tooling platform where the dual rods prevent rotational deflection under load, eliminating the need for a separate external anti-rotation guide.
Dual-Station Actuation
Actuates a dual-station assembly fixture where the second protruding rod end directly triggers a mechanical valve or external sensor flag simultaneously.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD63X200 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 63mm bore actuator, note the 1401.5N force at 0.5MPa. If your application requires less thrust, the 50mm bore provides 824.6N at 0.5MPa; if more force is needed, the 80mm bore yields 2267.8N at 0.5MPa. A single-rod ACQ cylinder is preferable if you only need unidirectional pushing or pulling and want maximum forward thrust. If your mechanism already features an external linear guide, a guided TACQ cylinder might offer a more integrated solution. To order, confirm the 200mm long-stroke requirement, the default female M10x1.5 rod-end thread, and the PT1/4 port size.
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 ACQD63X200 FAQ
This model provides an equal push and pull force of 1401.5N at 0.5MPa and 1962.2N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum holding capability of 286kgf at 1.0MPa. Push and pull forces are identical because the double-rod design creates the same annular area in both chambers. The 200mm stroke is a made-to-order long-stroke variant, exceeding the 100mm standard maximum for this 63mm bore.
The cylinder uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends to decelerate the load near the stroke ends, but these are not adjustable air cushions. Additionally, a plain ACQD cylinder does not hold its position when air pressure is lost or a 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.
