Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X100B
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X100B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø80mm bore and 100mm 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 ACQD80X100B
The AirTAC ACQD80X100B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin rods extending from both ends. Because a rod occupies each chamber, the annular area is identical in both directions, yielding exactly equal push and pull forces of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa. The symmetrical layout prevents rotation and extends guide length without needing an external guide. This 80mm bore unit hits its 100mm standard stroke maximum.
Built with a C-clip and riveted body, it runs on PT3/8 ports and a Ø25mm piston rod. The male M22x1.5 rod-end thread (-B option) couples directly to tooling. NBR elastomer bumpers fixed inside both ends absorb end-of-stroke impact. Note this version ships without a magnet; while the body retains switch grooves, you must add the -S option for solid-state or reed sensor mounting. The cylinder does not hold position on air loss, requiring an external rod lock for fail-safe load holding.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X100B Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X100B |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø80 mm |
| Stroke | 100 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, double rod |
| Port size | PT3/8 |
| Rod end thread | M16×2.0 female / M22×1.5 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 (Ø80mm — equal both ways)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2268 N | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3175 N | 3175 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 463 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 ACQD80X100B Is Used
Twin-Guided Press Tooling
Drives a stamping or forming head where the dual rods resist torsional twist and maintain precise parallelism during high-force metalworking contact.
Symmetric Transfer Pusher
Alternately pushes and retracts a transfer carriage on a packaging line, utilizing the identical push and pull forces for consistent cycle timing.
Dual-Station Actuation
Uses both rod ends to shuttle components between two machining stations simultaneously, cutting cycle time in automated assembly machinery.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X100B the Right Cylinder?
Select this 80mm bore for substantial symmetric thrust up to 463kgf at 1.0MPa. If your application requires less force, the adjacent Ø63 bore yields 1401.5N at 0.5MPa; stepping up to the Ø100 bore provides 3524.8N at 0.5MPa. Choose this specific ACQD80X100B variant when you need the maximum 100mm standard stroke, male M22x1.5 rod threads for direct mounting, and do not require a sensor magnet. If your cycle demands adjustable cushioning rather than fixed bumpers, or strict load holding on air loss, consider an external shock absorber or a separate guided TACQ unit with a pilot check valve.
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 ACQD80X100B FAQ
It delivers equal push and pull forces of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa, reaching a maximum of 463kgf at 1.0MPa. Push and pull are equal because the twin rods create identical annular areas in both chambers. This model features the maximum standard stroke of 100mm for the 80mm bore.
Fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke impact; it is not an adjustable air cushion. This specific -B variant ships without a sensor magnet, though the body retains grooves for adding reed or solid-state switches if you specify the -S option later. The male M22x1.5 rod thread couples directly to your load.
