The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD63X200B 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.
The AirTAC ACQD63X200B is a double-acting, double-rod JIS compact cylinder featuring a 200mm made-to-order long stroke. Because a rod protrudes from both ends, the annular piston area is identical in each direction, yielding equal push and pull forces of 1401.5N at 0.5MPa and 1962.2N at 0.7MPa. The twin rods resist rotation and add guide length, allowing a tool platform to be carried without an external anti-rotation guide. A male M18x1.5 thread on the rod end couples directly to your load.
This unit ships without a magnet but retains magnetic-switch grooves for adding external sensors later. It uses a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end for end-of-stroke deceleration rather than an adjustable air cushion. Operating pressure spans 0.15-1.0MPa, the proof pressure is 1.5MPa, and the PT1/4 port handles standard pneumatic supply.

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 | 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.

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 dual-sided pick-and-place head in packaging machinery where equal push and pull forces keep horizontal cycling smooth and balanced.
Pushes heavy pallets on a conveyor line using the extra guide length to prevent chassis twisting without needing a separate external guide.
Uses the second rod end to drive a sensor flag or secondary load on an automotive assembly jig, synchronizing two operations from one body.
For sizing, verify if the 1401.5N output at 0.5MPa meets your dynamic load requirements. If less force is needed, a 50mm bore provides 824.6N; if more is required, an 80mm bore yields 2267.8N. If your application only needs one-sided actuation, a single-rod ACQ cylinder saves space, while a guided TACQ unit fits better if heavy lateral loads exist. This 200mm variant is a long-stroke configuration exceeding the 100mm standard maximum, so expect made-to-order lead times. Confirm the male M18x1.5 rod thread and PT1/4 port during ordering.
Quick checklist
It delivers 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. The push and pull forces are identical because the rod occupies both chambers, making the annular area the same in each direction. This 200mm unit is a long-stroke variant exceeding the 100mm standard maximum for a 63mm bore. The rod is Ø20mm with a male M18x1.5 thread.
It uses a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end to absorb impact, meaning there is no adjustable air cushion. For high-energy cycles, an external shock absorber or slower approach speed is recommended. A plain ACQ-type does not hold its load if air pressure is lost or a valve is centered, so an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required for fail-safe positioning.
