Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ50X75S
The AirTAC Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ50X75S is a genuine double-acting GUIDED compact (JIS) cylinder — a Ø50mm bore, 75mm 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 TACQ50X75S
The AirTAC TACQ50X75S is a double-acting JIS compact guided cylinder featuring two chromed carbon steel guide rods and a fixing plate. It drives and guides a load simultaneously, effectively replacing a separate linear guide. The twin rods ensure a non-rotating accuracy of ±0.15° at the retracted position, handling lateral loads that a standard plain rod cannot withstand.
Drive force equals a standard ACQ of the same bore, as the guides add stiffness rather than thrust. At 0.5 MPa, it provides 981.8 N of push force and 824.6 N of pull force. The unit incorporates a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end for end-of-stroke deceleration, and the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet compatible with both reed and solid-state electronic switches.

Where the Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ50X75S Is Used
Pick-and-Place Head
Drives a vertical gripper assembly on an electronics assembly line, maintaining strict ±0.15° non-rotating accuracy during component placement.
Vision System Slide
Positions a camera bracket over a moving conveyor, utilizing the twin guide rods to resist lens deflection from sudden lateral acceleration.
Assembly Press
Applies 981.8 N of downward force to seat bearings in a small motor housing, relying on the fixed elastomer bumper to soften the stroke end impact.
Is the Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ50X75S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 50 mm bore actuator, compare it against the adjacent bores: the 40 mm yields 628.3 N push, while the 63 mm provides 1558.6 N at 0.5 MPa. If your application does not require anti-rotation or lateral load support, a plain ACQ50 saves space and cost; for higher off-center loads requiring equal push and pull from both sides, consider a double-rod ACQD. Ensure the 75 mm stroke is within the 100 mm maximum, specify PT1/4 ports, and verify the mass and speed limits at 0.5 MPa. Always confirm the exact reverse torque limit from the datasheet, as it decreases with stroke length, and ensure any external force is applied 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 TACQ50X75S FAQ
The 50 mm bore provides 981.8 N push and 824.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 1374.4 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The stroke is 75 mm (max standard 100 mm), and the non-rotating tolerance is ±0.15°.
Two chromed carbon steel guide rods carry lateral loads, but there is a maximum allowable reverse torque that decreases as stroke length increases; confirm the exact limit from the datasheet. It uses fixed NBR bumpers for deceleration, not adjustable cushions, so external shock absorbers may be needed for high energy. The -S magnet works with reed or solid-state switches.
