The AirTAC Airtac TACQ Guided Rod Ultra-Thin Cylinder TACQ80X35 is a genuine double-acting GUIDED compact (JIS) cylinder — a Ø80mm 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 TACQ80X35 is a double-acting JIS compact guided cylinder featuring two chromed carbon steel guide rods and a fixing plate. This construction secures the platform against rotation to a tight ±0.15° tolerance, enabling it to bear substantial lateral loads that a standard plain rod cannot manage. By integrating drive and guidance into one unit, it eliminates the need for a separate linear guide.
Drive force mirrors a conventional ACQ of the same 80mm bore, as the guides contribute stiffness rather than additional thrust. At 0.5MPa it yields 2513.2N push and 2267.8N pull, scaling to 3518.5N push at 0.7MPa, with a 513kgf maximum at 1.0MPa. The unit uses a PT3/8 port, a Ø25mm piston rod, and fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end to decelerate the load near stroke extremes.

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.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2513 N | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3519 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 513 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).

The guide plate replaces a separate rod-thread option. Related: ACQ (plain single rod), ACQD (double rod), ACQJ (adjustable stroke).
Drives a 35mm pressing action on automated assembly lines, utilizing the twin guide rods to maintain precise vertical alignment under offset loads.
Acts as a rugged stop mechanism for heavy pallets on material handling conveyors, absorbing lateral impact without rotating the mounting plate.
Raises and lowers bulky fixtures in packaging stations, relying on the chromed guide rods to prevent binding during the vertical transfer.
When sizing this 80mm bore actuator, compare its 2513.2N push at 0.5MPa against the adjacent 63mm option (1558.6N) if your load is lighter, or step up if more thrust is required. A plain ACQ fits tasks needing no lateral load support, while a double-rod ACQD suits symmetrical thrust. For this TACQ80X35, verify the 35mm stroke is within the 100mm maximum, select PT3/8 piping, and note this specific SKU ships without a sensor magnet. Always confirm the allowable reverse torque and mass/speed limits from the datasheet, and ensure external forces remain concentric with the rod.
Quick checklist
The TACQ80X35 delivers 2513.2N push and 2267.8N pull at 0.5MPa, and 3518.5N push at 0.7MPa, with a maximum push of 513kgf at 1.0MPa. It features a PT3/8 port, a maximum standard stroke of 100mm, and a non-rotating tolerance of ±0.15°.
It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers for end-of-stroke deceleration, not adjustable air cushions. The twin chromed guide rods handle lateral loads, but allowable reverse torque decreases with stroke—confirm the exact limit from the datasheet. A standard ACQ body does not hold position on air loss, so use an external rod lock for fail-safe load holding.
