The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X75 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø80mm bore and 75mm 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 ACQD80X75 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a 25mm piston rod protruding from both ends. Because a rod occupies each chamber, the annular area remains identical in both directions, generating an equal push and pull force of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa. This symmetric thrust is ideal for balanced cycling, and the unit reaches a maximum capacity of 463kgf at 1.0MPa.
Twin rods provide extended guiding length and high torsional resistance, allowing you to mount a tooling platform directly without needing an external anti-rotation guide. The second rod end can simultaneously drive a sensor flag or a secondary load. Deceleration is handled by fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends, and the body includes magnetic-switch grooves, though this specific SKU ships without a magnet. PT3/8 ports and a female M16x2.0 rod-end thread are standard.

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 |
|---|---|---|

| 0.7 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 dual-sided material handling carriage in packaging machinery, utilizing the equal push and pull thrust to maintain balanced momentum during directional changes.
Actuates a small stamping or clamping fixture in an assembly line, relying on the two rods to prevent platform rotation under offset loads without needing external guides.
Powers a two-station actuation mechanism in electronics manufacturing, using one rod end to move the primary workpiece and the opposite end to trigger a reed or solid-state sensor flag.
Choosing this 80mm bore yields 2267.8N of thrust both ways. If your application requires less force, stepping down to a 63mm bore provides 1401.5N, while moving up to a 100mm bore offers 3524.8N. If your mechanism only needs unidirectional thrust and lacks space for a second rod, a single-rod ACQ series fits better. For loads exceeding the torsional limits of twin rods, consider a guided TACQ cylinder. Confirm your requirements for the 75mm stroke, PT3/8 porting, and female M16x2.0 rod thread when ordering.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder provides an equal push and pull force of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum holding capability of 463kgf at 1.0MPa. Push and pull forces are identical because the twin-rod design creates the same annular area in both chambers. The standard stroke limit for this 80mm bore is 100mm, and it operates safely between 0.15 and 1.0MPa.
It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for end-of-stroke damping, which are not adjustable. The dual-rod design inherently resists rotation and extends the guide length. A plain ACQ-type cylinder does not hold its load if air pressure is lost; the rod will drift, and the bumper only decelerates near the stroke end. For fail-safe load holding, you must install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
