Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ25X10
The AirTAC Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ25X10 is a genuine double-acting GUIDED compact (JIS) cylinder — a Ø25mm bore, 10mm stroke and two guide rods with a fixing plate. The twin guides hold the platform non-rotating to within ±0.15° and carry lateral load a plain compact rod cannot, so it drives and guides a load in one unit.

About the Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ25X10
The AirTAC TACQ25X10 is a double-acting JIS compact guided cylinder integrating two stainless steel guide rods and a fixing plate with the drive unit. This configuration provides a non-rotating accuracy of ±0.15° at the retracted position, enabling it to carry lateral loads that a standard plain rod cannot withstand.
Drive thrust equals a conventional ACQ of the same 25mm bore, meaning the guides contribute rigidity rather than extra force. It yields 245.4N push and 188.9N pull at 0.5MPa, incorporates fixed elastomer TPU bumpers for end-of-stroke deceleration, and features body grooves for adding position sensors.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC TACQ datasheet. Two guide rods carry lateral load and hold rotation to ±0.15°; do not apply reverse torque beyond the datasheet limit. Confirm against the product label before installation.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø25mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 245 N | 189 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
Drive force equals a standard ACQ of the same bore — the guide rods add stiffness, not thrust. Keep moving mass and speed within the datasheet chart (rated at 0.5 MPa).

Where the Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ25X10 Is Used
Pick-and-Place Head
Maintains strict angular alignment during vertical component insertion without needing a separate linear guide carriage.
PCB Probe Slide
Handles lateral offset loads on testing heads while ensuring the probe descends precisely straight down.
Pallet Stopper Gate
Acts as a rigid barrier on packaging lines, resisting side impacts from moving goods without twisting.
Is the Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ25X10 the Right Cylinder?
Stepping down to the Ø20 bore drops thrust to 157.1N push at 0.5MPa, while the larger Ø32 raises it to 402.1N. If your mechanism already employs an external linear rail and only needs pure push pull without anti-rotation, a plain ACQ fits better. For applications demanding equal force in both directions, consider the double-rod ACQD. When ordering this 10mm stroke variant (max standard 50mm), verify your lateral load and reverse torque limits, keeping external force concentric with the rod.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Lateral load / non-rotation needed?
- ✓ Moving mass and speed within chart
- ✓ Drive force at your pressure
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ No reverse torque on the guide rods
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Do not apply reverse torque above the datasheet limit.
- check Apply external force concentric with the rod.
- check Keep mass × speed within the performance chart.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ25X10 FAQ
It delivers 245.4N push and 188.9N pull at 0.5MPa, 343.6N push at 0.7MPa, and a maximum push of 50kgf at 1.0MPa. The maximum standard stroke is 50mm, the port is M5x0.8, and the non-rotating tolerance is ±0.15°.
The twin guide rods support lateral loads, but reverse torque limits decrease as stroke extends. Treat the torque limit as an order-of-magnitude guide and confirm the exact value from the datasheet. Never apply reverse torque above this limit, and ensure external force remains concentric with the rod.
