Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X175S
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X175S 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 ACQD80X175S
The AirTAC ACQD80X175S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a 175mm stroke and an 80mm bore. Because twin Ø25mm piston rods exit both ends, the effective annular area is identical in each direction. This yields equal push and pull forces of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa, ideal for symmetric cycles. The extended 175mm travel exceeds the standard 100mm maximum for this bore, making it a made-to-order long-stroke variant.
Twin rods provide a longer guide length and inherent anti-rotation properties, allowing you to mount a tooling platform directly without needing an external guide rail. The second rod end can simultaneously drive a sensor flag or secondary load. NBR elastomer bumpers are fixed at both ends to absorb end-of-stroke impact, and the integrated -S piston magnet supports position detection via reed or solid-state switches.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X175S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X175S |
|---|---|
| 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 ACQD80X175S Is Used
Symmetric Transfer Shuttle
Drives a dual-sided packaging shuttle where matching push and pull forces prevent drift during high-speed product transfers.
Twin-Guided Machining Pusher
Feeds parts into a CNC cell; the two protruding rods resist torsional loads without requiring a separate external guide carriage.
Dual-Station Actuation
Uses one rod end to move a clamping mechanism while the opposite end mounts a physical sensor flag for timing verification.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X175S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 80mm bore actuator when your fixture requires 3175N of symmetric thrust and pull at 0.7MPa across a 175mm span. For lower force needs, a 63mm bore provides 1401.5N at 0.5MPa; if you need more power, a 100mm bore yields 3524.8N at 0.5MPa. Remember that a standard single-rod ACQ has unequal forces, so choose this double-rod ACQD specifically when rotational stability and matching bidirectional power are mandatory. Confirm your porting (PT3/8) and female M16x2.0 rod-end threads when ordering.
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 ACQD80X175S FAQ
It delivers equal push and pull forces of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum capacity of 463kgf at 1.0MPa. Push equals pull because the twin rods create identical annular areas on both sides. The 175mm stroke is a made-to-order long-stroke configuration, exceeding the standard 100mm maximum for this 80mm bore.
The dual-rod design inherently resists rotation and extends the guiding length. Fixed NBR elastomer bumpers absorb impact at stroke ends, but they are not adjustable air cushions. A plain ACQ-type does not hold position on air loss; for fail-safe load holding, you must install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
