Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD63X80SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD63X80SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø63mm bore and 80mm 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 ACQD63X80SB
The AirTAC ACQD63X80SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a 63mm bore and an 80mm stroke. Because twin piston rods protrude from both ends, the effective annular area remains identical in each direction. This yields exactly equal push and pull forces of 1401.5N at 0.5MPa and 1962.2N at 0.7MPa. The male M18x1.5 rod ends couple directly to tooling, while the PT1/4 ports supply air.
Twin rods inherently resist rotation and extend the guiding length, allowing you to mount a platform without adding an external anti-rotation guide. The second rod end can drive a sensor flag or a secondary load. Fixed NBR bumpers absorb impact at stroke extremes, and the built-in magnet (-S) tracks position using reed or solid-state switches. Note that a standard cylinder drifts if air pressure drops; secure an external rod lock for fail-safe holding.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD63X80SB Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD63X80SB |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø63 mm |
| Stroke | 80 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 ACQD63X80SB Is Used
Twin-Guided Pusher
Drives a machining fixture pusher where the dual rods prevent rotational deflection under heavy lateral loads.
Symmetric Transfer
Synchronizes a packaging line diverter, using the equal annular forces to ensure identical push and pull speeds.
Dual-Station Actuation
Powers a two-sided assembly station press, utilizing the second rod end to trigger a pneumatic valve mechanically.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD63X80SB the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 63mm bore for loads requiring 1401.5N at 0.5MPa. If your application needs less force, the 50mm bore provides 824.6N, whereas stepping up to the 80mm bore yields 2267.8N. This 80mm stroke sits well within the 100mm maximum limit. The included -B option provides male M18x1.5 rod threads for direct mounting. If your setup demands precise non-rotating guidance over a long span, consider a guided TACQ cylinder instead. Remember that a plain ACQD does not hold position upon air loss; specify a pilot check valve or external rod lock for vertical loads.
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 ACQD63X80SB FAQ
It delivers an equal push and pull force of 1401.5N at 0.5MPa and 1962.2N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum capacity of 286kgf at 1.0MPa. Forces are identical both ways because the twin rods create the same annular area in each chamber. The standard stroke limit for this 63mm bore is 100mm.
It uses fixed NBR bumpers at both ends to absorb impact energy, meaning there is no adjustable air cushion. For high-speed cycles, add an external shock absorber. The built-in magnet (-S) works with reed or electronic solid-state switches, and the second male-threaded rod end can mount a sensor flag.
