Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X200
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X200 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø80mm 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.

About the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X200
The AirTAC ACQD80X200 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin rods extending from both body ends. Because a rod occupies each chamber, the effective annular area remains identical in both directions, yielding perfectly equal push and pull forces of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa. The dual shafts inherently resist rotation and provide an extended guide length, allowing you to mount a tool platform directly without needing an external anti-rotation guide.
This 80mm bore variant uses a PT3/8 port and a Ø25mm piston rod with a female M16x2.0 thread end. It relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end for deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions. Featuring a 200mm stroke, this unit is a made-to-order long-stroke configuration that exceeds the 100mm standard maximum, taking full advantage of the extended range available for larger bores.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X200 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X200 |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø80 mm |
| Stroke | 200 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 ACQD80X200 Is Used
Twin-Guided Pusher
Drives a wide format panel pusher in woodworking machinery, using the dual rods to prevent yawing under heavy 2267.8N lateral loads.
Symmetric Transfer
Powers a dual-station shuttle in automotive parts conveying, where equal push and pull forces ensure identical cycle timing in both directions.
Dual-Station Actuation
Actuates two synchronized clamps on a packaging line simultaneously by mounting separate tooling on each protruding rod end.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X200 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this model requires sizing forces both ways; the neighboring 63mm bore yields 1401.5N at 0.5MPa, while the 100mm bore provides 3524.8N at 0.5MPa, confirming the 80mm bore's 2267.8N capacity fits high-load mid-range needs. If your application only requires unidirectional thrust, a single-rod ACQ cylinder offers a more compact footprint. For multi-axis lifting without torsional deflection, a guided TACQ module provides integrated linear bearings. Confirm your ordering essentials: this ACQD80X200 ships without a sensor magnet, uses default female rod threads, and includes a 200mm non-standard stroke requiring made-to-order fulfillment.
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 ACQD80X200 FAQ
It delivers equal push and pull forces of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum of 463kgf at 1.0MPa. Push and pull forces are equal because the twin rods create identical annular areas in both chambers. This unit has an 80mm bore, a 200mm non-standard long stroke, a PT3/8 port, and a female M16x2.0 rod-end thread.
Deceleration relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends, not adjustable air cushions; for high energy impacts, add an external shock absorber. A plain ACQ-type cylinder does not hold its load on air loss or when the valve is centered, as the rod will drift and the bumper only functions near the stroke end. For fail-safe holding, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
