Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X35B
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X35B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø80mm bore and 35mm 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 ACQD80X35B
The AirTAC ACQD80X35B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder where a Ø25mm piston rod protrudes from both ends. Because the rod occupies both internal chambers, the effective annular area is identical in each direction. This yields an equal push and pull force of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa, enabling perfectly symmetric cycles. The twin rods drastically increase guide length and prevent platform rotation without needing an external guide rail.
This specific variant includes a male M22x1.5 thread on both rod ends for direct load coupling, and uses PT3/8 ports. It relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at the stroke extremes for end-of-travel damping rather than adjustable air cushions. Body grooves allow mounting reed or solid-state sensors, though this unit ships without a magnet. Note that a standard ACQD will drift if air pressure is lost; maintaining position safely requires an external pilot check valve or rod lock.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X35B Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X35B |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø80 mm |
| Stroke | 35 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 ACQD80X35B Is Used
Twin-Guided Pusher
Drives a heavy machining fixture pusher where the dual rods prevent yawing under offset loads during clamping.
Symmetric Transfer
Transfers wide components between parallel conveyors, utilizing the equal push and pull forces for balanced bi-directional placement.
Dual-Station Actuation
Powers a dual-station stamping press, using the second rod end to trigger a mechanical flag for a downstream sequencing valve.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X35B the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 80mm bore provides a massive 2267.8N force at 0.5MPa in both directions over a 35mm stroke. If your application requires less energy, stepping down to a 63mm bore yields 1401.5N. Conversely, moving up to a 100mm bore offers 3524.8N. Choose this ACQD80X35B when your mechanism needs rigid anti-rotation support or a second drive point. If symmetric force is unnecessary and space is tight, a single-rod ACQ may fit better. Confirm your order requires the male M22x1.5 rod end and verify that 35mm meets your travel distance.
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 ACQD80X35B FAQ
It delivers 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 are equal because the rod occupies both chambers. The maximum standard stroke available for this 80mm bore is 100mm.
It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for impact absorption; it does not feature adjustable air cushions. For high-energy cycles, add an external shock absorber. Additionally, it will not hold its load if air pressure drops, so an external rod lock or pilot check valve is required for fail-safe positioning.
