Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ25X25S
The AirTAC Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ25X25S is a genuine double-acting GUIDED compact (JIS) cylinder — a Ø25mm bore, 25mm 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 TACQ25X25S
The AirTAC TACQ25X25S is a double-acting JIS compact guided cylinder featuring a 25mm bore and 25mm stroke. Two stainless steel guide rods and a fixing plate ensure the platform is non-rotating to a ±0.15° tolerance. This integrated drive-and-guide design replaces a separate linear guide, carrying lateral loads that a plain rod cannot manage.
Drive force equals a standard ACQ of the same size, as the guides add stiffness rather than thrust. At 0.5 MPa it provides 245.4 N push and 188.9 N pull, rising to 343.6 N push at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum push of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The unit includes fixed elastomer TPU bumpers, and the built-in S magnet works with reed or electronic solid-state switches.

Where the Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ25X25S Is Used
Pick-and-Place Head
Ideal for assembly robots transferring small electronic components, maintaining strict angular alignment without twisting during rapid vertical movements.
Sensor Camera Slide
Positions vision inspection cameras over a moving conveyor, relying on the twin guide rods to keep the lens perfectly stable and square to the target.
Pallet Stopper Gate
Acts as a rugged stop pin on packaging lines, absorbing side impacts from passing pallets while holding its position without rotational drift.
Is the Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ25X25S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 25mm bore unit, stepping down to a 20mm bore yields 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, while moving up to a 32mm bore provides 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa. Choose this model when lateral load resistance and precise non-rotating guidance are required; if your application only needs a straight push without anti-rotation, a plain ACQ cylinder is sufficient, and a double-rod ACQD offers higher lateral stability. Confirm your ordering essentials: 25mm bore, 25mm stroke (under the 50mm max), M5x0.8 port, and PT thread. Always verify the allowable reverse torque and mass/speed limits from the datasheet, and ensure external forces remain 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 TACQ25X25S FAQ
This double-acting cylinder delivers 245.4 N push and 188.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 343.6 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The twin guide rods provide a non-rotating tolerance of ±0.15°. The maximum standard stroke available for this 25mm bore is 50mm.
The two stainless steel guide rods allow the unit to bear lateral loads that a standard compact rod cannot. However, there is a maximum allowable reverse torque and mass/speed limit (charted at 0.5 MPa) that decreases as stroke length increases. Treat these as order-of-magnitude figures and confirm the exact limit from the datasheet; never apply reverse torque above this limit or side loads that are not concentric with the rod.
