Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X25
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X25 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø80mm bore and 25mm 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 ACQD80X25
The AirTAC ACQD80X25 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin Ø25mm rods exiting both ends. Because a piston rod occupies each chamber, the effective annular area is identical in both directions, yielding equal push and pull forces of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa.
This symmetric layout resists torsion and extends guide length, allowing a tool platform to mount directly without needing an external anti-rotation guide. The second rod end can drive a sensor flag or a secondary load. Deceleration relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends, and while the body retains magnetic-switch grooves, this specific configuration ships without a magnet.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X25 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X25 |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø80 mm |
| Stroke | 25 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 ACQD80X25 Is Used
Symmetric Transfer Mechanism
Drives a dual-sided pick-and-place head in packaging machinery, utilizing the equal push/pull thrust to maintain balanced cycling during product transfers.
Twin-Guided Press Tool
Actuates a small stamping platform on an electronics assembly line, leveraging the twin rods to prevent torsion without adding an external guide rail.
Dual-Station Diverting
Operates a synchronized sorting gate on a logistics conveyor, using the secondary rod end to mount a position flag for a solid-state sensor.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X25 the Right Cylinder?
Comparing bore sizes: the adjacent ACQD63X25 yields 1401.5N at 0.5MPa, whereas stepping up to the ACQD100X25 provides 3524.8N. Choose this 80mm bore when your application requires 2267.8N of symmetric thrust. If your mechanism only needs unidirectional thrust, a single-rod ACQ80X25 offers greater extension force. For higher side loads requiring external guidance, a guided TACQ cylinder is preferable. Verify your porting (PT3/8) and female M16x2.0 rod-end thread during 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 ACQD80X25 FAQ
This cylinder provides an equal push and pull force of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum holding capacity of 463kgf at 1.0MPa. Push and pull forces are identical because the twin rods create the same annular area in both chambers. The maximum standard stroke available for this 80mm bore is 100mm.
Deceleration is handled by fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both stroke ends, which are not adjustable; for high-energy cycles, an external shock absorber is recommended. A plain ACQD does not hold its position when air pressure is lost, so a fail-safe load hold requires an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
