Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X90B
The AirTAC Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X90B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with a piston rod out BOTH ends — a Ø80mm bore and 90mm 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 ACQD80X90B
The AirTAC ACQD80X90B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring twin rods that exit both ends of its riveted C-clip body. Because a rod occupies each chamber, the annular area remains identical in both directions, yielding equal push and pull forces of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa. This 80mm bore unit provides a substantial 463kgf maximum at 1.0MPa without asymmetric thrust shifts.
Dual rods inherently resist rotation and extend the guiding length, allowing you to mount a tool platform directly without needing an external anti-rotation guide. This specific variant includes a male M22x1.5 piston rod end for direct load coupling and PT3/8 air ports. Fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke impact, while the body retains standard sensor grooves despite shipping without a magnet.
Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X90B Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X90B |
|---|---|
| Series | ACQD JIS compact double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø80 mm |
| Stroke | 90 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 ACQD80X90B Is Used
Twin-Guided Pusher
Drives a wide material pusher in a packaging line where the dual rods prevent yawing and maintain precise lateral alignment without an external guide rail.
Symmetric Transfer Arm
Powers a pick-and-place transfer arm in electronics assembly, utilizing the equal bidirectional 3175N thrust to maintain balanced cycle timing.
Dual-Station Actuation
Actuates two separate clamping stations simultaneously from a single 80mm body, using the second protruding rod end to drive a secondary mechanism.
Is the Airtac ACQD Double Acting Compact Cylinder ACQD80X90B the Right Cylinder?
For a 90mm stroke, this 80mm bore generates 2267.8N both ways; stepping down to a 63mm bore yields 1401.5N, while stepping up to a 100mm bore provides 3524.8N at 0.5MPa. Choose this double-rod configuration when your mechanism requires equal thrust in both directions or needs a secondary rod end to drive a second load. If your application only needs unidirectional push force, a single-rod ACQ cylinder offers a lighter alternative. Confirm your ordering code includes the B suffix for the male M22x1.5 thread and that PT3/8 porting matches your fittings.
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 ACQD80X90B FAQ
This 80mm bore cylinder provides equal push and pull forces of 2267.8N at 0.5MPa and 3175N at 0.7MPa, with a maximum holding capacity of 463kgf at 1.0MPa. The push and pull values are identical because the twin rods create the same annular area in both chambers. The standard stroke limit for this bore is 100mm.
It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends to absorb impact, not adjustable air cushions. A plain ACQD does not hold its load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; for fail-safe positioning, you must add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
