AirTAC Compact Cylinder Series
ACQ (Standard / Long / Large) & TACQ (Guide Rod)
Series Overview
The AirTAC ACQ/TACQ Series represents a comprehensive line of compact pneumatic cylinders meticulously designed for space-saving applications without compromising on output force or performance. Conforming to JIS standards, this versatile family of cylinders is engineered to meet diverse automation needs.
- Space Efficiency: The ultra-compact body utilizes a C-clip fastening mechanism and a riveted piston structure, significantly reducing the overall length compared to standard cylinders.
- Exceptional Durability: The internal cylinder bore undergoes a hard anodizing process, providing excellent wear resistance and extending the product's operational lifespan.
- Versatile Configurations: The series spans from standard compact units (12-100mm bores) to long stroke variants, heavy-duty large bore versions (125-160mm), and the specialized TACQ series which integrates double guide rods for superior anti-rotation accuracy.
- Convenience: Built-in sensor mounting slots on the periphery of the cylinder body allow for quick and seamless installation of magnetic switches.
Whether your application requires precise guiding, high-force pushing, or integration into a severely space-restricted environment, the ACQ/TACQ series offers a reliable and efficient solution.
