The AirTAC Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ32X35S is a genuine double-acting GUIDED compact (JIS) cylinder — a Ø32mm bore, 35mm 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.
The AirTAC TACQ32X35S is a double-acting JIS compact guided cylinder featuring a 32mm bore and 35mm stroke. Two stainless steel guide rods and a fixing plate ensure non-rotating accuracy of ±0.15°, carrying lateral loads that a plain rod cannot. This integrated drive-and-guide unit eliminates the need for a separate linear guide.
Drive force equals a standard ACQ of the same bore, delivering 402.1N push and 301.6N pull at 0.5MPa, since the guides add stiffness rather than thrust. It includes a built-in magnet (-S) compatible with reed or solid-state switches, fixed NBR elastomer bumpers, and a PT1/8 port. Maximum reverse torque decreases with stroke length, so confirm exact limits from the datasheet.

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.

The guide plate replaces a separate rod-thread option. Related: ACQ (plain single rod), ACQD (double rod), ACQJ (adjustable stroke).
Drives a small gripper on an assembly line, maintaining strict parallelism via the twin guide rods during component transfer.
Positions a vision system inspection head with ±0.15° non-rotating tolerance to keep the lens perfectly aligned over moving parts.
Acts as a rigid stop mechanism on a conveyor, absorbing side-impact forces and halting work-holders without twisting.
This 32mm bore provides 402.1N push at 0.5MPa. Stepping down to a 25mm bore yields 245.4N, while a 40mm bore offers 628.3N. Choose a plain ACQ if lateral load support is unnecessary, or an ACQD double-rod cylinder if symmetrical pulling force is required. Verify your stroke does not exceed the 100mm maximum. Ensure external loads remain concentric with the rod and that reverse torque stays below the allowable charted limit.
Quick checklist
It delivers 402.1N push and 301.6N pull at 0.5MPa, and 562.9N push at 0.7MPa, with a maximum push capacity of 82kgf at 1.0MPa. The maximum standard stroke for a 32mm bore is 100mm. Twin guide rods ensure a non-rotating tolerance of ±0.15°.
No, the cylinder drifts on air loss because the fixed NBR bumpers only decelerate near stroke ends. For fail-safe holding, use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. Also, ensure applied reverse torque does not exceed the charted limit; consult the datasheet for exact values at this stroke.
