The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X35SB 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.
The AirTAC ACQD80X35SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin rods that exit both ends of the riveted body. Because a rod occupies each chamber, the annular area is identical on extension and retraction, yielding equal push and pull force of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa (3175N at 0.7MPa). This symmetry is ideal for applications requiring perfectly balanced bi-directional thrust.
The dual rods provide extended guide length and high torsional resistance, allowing you to mount a tool platform directly without needing an external anti-rotation guide. This SB variant includes a male M22x1.5 rod-end thread for direct load coupling and a built-in piston magnet for position sensing. Deceleration is handled by fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end, ensuring reliable operation within the 30-500mm/s speed range.

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.
| 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.

Thread: PT standard (G / NPT available). The twin rods resist rotation and add guiding length. Related: ACQ (single rod), ACQJ (adjustable stroke), TACQ (guided).
Drives a heavy machining fixture back and forth on a production line, using the dual rods to prevent platform deflection under offset loads.
Shifts large automotive subassemblies between processing stations, leveraging the equal push and pull forces to maintain smooth, balanced cycling.
Operates two clamps simultaneously in a packaging machine, using the second protruding rod end to drive a secondary mechanism or sensor flag.
Delivering 2267.8N both ways, this 80mm bore sits between the 63mm unit (1401.5N) and the 100mm unit (3524.8N) at 0.5MPa. If your mechanism only needs thrust in one direction, a single-rod ACQ offers a lighter footprint, while a guided TACQ is preferable if your load exceeds the torsional limits of the twin rods. To order, confirm the 35mm stroke, PT3/8 port size, and the SB options (magnet and male M22x1.5 rod thread).
Quick checklist
It provides equal push and pull forces of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum rated force of 463kgf at 1.0MPa. Because the double-rod design creates equal annular areas on both sides, thrust is identical in both directions. The maximum standard stroke available for this 80mm bore is 100mm.
It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both stroke ends for impact absorption; these are not adjustable air cushions, so external shock absorbers may be needed for high-energy loads. Additionally, a plain ACQD does not hold position when air pressure is lost or valves are centered—an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required for fail-safe load holding.
