Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ63X25
The AirTAC Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ63X25 is a genuine double-acting GUIDED compact (JIS) cylinder — a Ø63mm 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 TACQ63X25
The TACQ63X25 is a double-acting JIS compact guided cylinder featuring a 63mm bore and 25mm stroke. Two chromed carbon steel guide rods alongside a fixing plate prevent platform rotation to a tight ±0.15° tolerance. This integrated drive-and-guide architecture replaces a separate linear guide, handling lateral loads that a plain compact 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 1558.6N push and 1401.5N pull, rising to 2182N push at 0.7MPa. The unit uses a PT1/4 port, a Ø20mm piston rod, and fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end. Body sensor grooves are present, but this specific configuration ships without a magnet.

Where the Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ63X25 Is Used
Pick-and-Place Head
Drives and precisely guides small electronic component placement heads without rotational drift during the transfer cycle.
PCB Stopper Gate
Acts as a rigid stopper gate on a PCB conveyor line, absorbing lateral side-impact forces from passing board carriers.
Small Press Tooling
Provides stable vertical pressing force for light assembly machine tooling, ensuring the fixturing plate stays perfectly parallel.
Is the Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ63X25 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 63mm bore offers 1558.6N push at 0.5MPa. Stepping down to the 50mm bore yields 981.8N push, while stepping up to the 80mm bore provides 2513.2N push. A plain ACQ fits if your load is already externally guided and free from lateral stress; choose a double-rod ACQD if you need higher torsional rigidity. Confirm your ordering essentials: 63mm bore, 25mm stroke (max standard 100mm), PT thread, and no magnet. Always verify your lateral load and reverse-torque limits against the datasheet, and apply 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 TACQ63X25 FAQ
It delivers 1558.6N push and 1401.5N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 2182N push at 0.7 MPa. Max push is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The port is PT1/4, the rod is Ø20mm with an M10x1.5 end thread. Non-rotating tolerance is ±0.15°, and max standard stroke is 100mm.
The twin chromed guide rods manage lateral load, but reverse torque limits decrease as stroke increases (order of 1.61 to 3.90 N·m for this bore range; confirm exact figures from the datasheet). Do not exceed these limits. Also, the fixed NBR bumper only decelerates near stroke end; it does not hold loads on air loss, so use an external rod lock for fail-safe holding.
