Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X175
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X175 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø80mm bore and 175mm 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 ACQD80X175
The AirTAC ACQD80X175 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 equal push and pull forces of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa. The dual-rod architecture resists torsion and lengthens guide support, allowing a tool platform to be carried directly without needing an external anti-rotation guide.
This 80mm bore variant uses a PT3/8 port and a Ø25mm piston rod with an M16x2.0 female thread end. It incorporates fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for end-of-stroke deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions. With a 175mm stroke, this unit is a made-to-order long-stroke configuration exceeding the 100mm standard maximum for this bore size.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X175 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X175 |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø80 mm |
| Stroke | 175 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 ACQD80X175 Is Used
Symmetric Transfer Arms
Drives dual-station transfer arms in packaging machinery where equal push and pull forces keep horizontal product shifts perfectly balanced.
Twin-Guided Pushers
Actuates a twin-guided pusher on CNC loading equipment, using the extended second rod end to mount a sensor flag for position tracking.
Heavy-Duty Lift Stations
Raises and lowers heavy tooling platforms in automotive assembly lines, relying on the dual rods to prevent rotational drift during vertical actuation.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X175 the Right Cylinder?
For sizing, the neighbouring 63mm bore yields 1401.5N at 0.5MPa, while the 100mm bore provides 3524.8N at 0.5MPa, helping you bracket this 80mm model's 2267.8N capacity. If your application requires unilateral thrust where pull force can be lower, a single-rod ACQ may suffice. If your load demands multi-axis rigidity beyond what twin rods offer, a guided TACQ cylinder fits better. To order, confirm the 175mm non-standard stroke, the default female M16x2.0 rod thread, and PT3/8 porting.
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 ACQD80X175 FAQ
The push and pull forces are equal at 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum force of 463kgf at 1.0MPa. The equal force occurs because the twin rods create the same annular area in both chambers. The 175mm stroke is a made-to-order long-stroke variant, as the standard maximum stroke for an 80mm bore is 100mm.
It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends to decelerate the piston near stroke limits; it does not have adjustable air cushions or a built-in rod lock. If air pressure is lost, the cylinder will drift, so an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required for fail-safe load holding.
