Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ63X25S
The AirTAC Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ63X25S 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 TACQ63X25S
The AirTAC TACQ63X25S is a double-acting JIS compact guided cylinder featuring a 63mm bore and 25mm stroke. Twin chromed carbon steel guide rods paired with a fixing plate ensure precise non-rotating accuracy of ±0.15° at the retracted position. This integrated drive-and-guide design eliminates the need for a separate linear rail while carrying lateral loads that a standard plain rod cannot support.
Drive force matches a conventional ACQ body of the same size, yielding 1558.6N push and 1401.5N pull at 0.5MPa, and 2182N push at 0.7MPa. The unit integrates fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end for end-of-stroke deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions. Equipped with a piston magnet (-S suffix), the body accepts both reed and solid-state electronic switches for position sensing across a 30-500mm/s speed range.

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 (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 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 TACQ63X25S Is Used
Pick-and-Place Head
Drives and aligns components on CNC machine tending stations, using the dual guide rods to prevent jaw deflection during rapid vertical transfers.
Component Pressing
Applies 1558.6N of stable clamping force for seating bearings or pins in small assembly jigs without requiring an external linear guide.
Sensor Slide
Positions vision inspection cameras over moving conveyor belts, relying on the ±0.15° non-rotating tolerance to maintain exact optical focus.
Is the Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ63X25S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 63mm bore with a 25mm stroke offers substantial thrust within a compact footprint. If 1558.6N push at 0.5MPa exceeds your requirement, stepping down to a 50mm bore provides 981.8N, whereas upsizing to an 80mm bore yields 2513.2N for heavier displacement. A plain ACQ fits applications with inherent external linear guidance, and a double-rod ACQD suits tasks demanding higher torsional rigidity without lateral play. When ordering, verify the 100mm maximum stroke limit, PT1/4 port, and M10x1.5 rod-end thread. Always confirm the specific reverse torque limit and mass/speed constraints from the datasheet, ensuring 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 TACQ63X25S FAQ
This double-acting cylinder provides 1558.6N push and 1401.5N pull at 0.5MPa, and 2182N push at 0.7MPa, with a maximum push force of 318kgf at 1.0MPa. It features a 63mm bore, a 25mm stroke (max standard stroke is 100mm), a PT1/4 port, an M10x1.5 female rod-end thread, and a non-rotating tolerance of ±0.15°.
The two chromed carbon steel guide rods allow it to carry lateral loads that a plain compact rod cannot. However, there is a maximum allowable reverse torque and mass/speed limit that decreases as stroke length increases. You must verify the exact order-of-magnitude torque limit from the datasheet for your specific stroke, never apply reverse torque above this limit, and ensure any external force is applied concentric with the rod.
