AirTAC TACED Series Double-Rod Non-Rotating Compact Cylinders
AirTAC TACED series non-rotating double-rod ISO 21287 compact cylinders, 12-100 mm bores, for precise guided motion in tight spaces.
inventory_2320 models availableSeries Overview
The TACED series is the non-rotating double-rod version of the ISO 21287 ACE compact cylinder. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop tooling rotation and carry side load, while a working rod exits both covers for equal force in both directions. The hard-anodized aluminium body keeps the envelope short, and S45C hard-chrome rods resist wear.
Available in 10 bores from 12 to 100 mm with ports from M5x0.8 to 1/4 inch. Force at 0.5 MPa spans about 42 N (bore 12) to 3770 N (bore 100), equal in push and pull. Fixed TPU bumpers cushion both ends, and an optional magnet (-S) enables CMSE/DMSE switches. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa, temperature -20 to +80 C, and air should be filtered to 40 um.

Typical Applications
Pick-and-Place Gantry
Use TACED on a gantry Z-axis to keep a gripper from rotating while carrying off-center loads. The twin guide rods maintain orientation without extra linear rails.
Pusher on Conveyor
On a conveyor diverter, the double rod provides equal push and pull force, letting the same cylinder move a stop in both directions with symmetric mounting.
Press Ram Guide
In a small press or staking fixture, TACED's yoke-guided rods resist torque from off-center tooling, keeping the ram square to the work surface.
Lab Sample Positioning
For a lab slide or probe positioner, the non-rotating feature and compact body fit tight enclosures while the through-rod allows rear-end sensing with a magnet switch.
How to Choose the Right Model
Choose the bore based on the required force: from about 42 N at 12 mm to 3770 N at 100 mm (at 0.5 MPa). Since force is equal in both directions, size for the load in either direction. For side load or anti-rotation needs, TACED is the right choice; for a plain double-rod without guide, consider ACED; for non-rotating single-rod, TACE.
Confirm these five points: bore (12-100 mm), stroke (confirm from datasheet), port thread (M5x0.8 for 12-25, 1/8 inch for 32-63, 1/4 inch for 80-100), mounting style, and whether you need the -S magnet for sensor mounting. TACED is not a tie-rod or ISO 15552 cylinder; it follows ISO 21287 compact dimensions.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and available mounting space
- ✓ Port / thread type (PT / NPT / G)
- ✓ Sensor / magnet option (-S)?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided model
Frequently Asked Questions
At 0.5 MPa, force spans about 42 N at 12 mm bore to 3770 N at 100 mm bore. Because it is double-rod, the force is equal in both directions (rod-side area).
TACED has twin guide rods for non-rotation and a through-rod for equal force both ways. TACE is non-rotating but single-rod; ACED is double-rod but without guide rods. Choose TACED when you need both anti-rotation and symmetric force.
No. TACED follows ISO 21287 compact cylinder dimensions, not ISO 15552. It is not a tie-rod cylinder. For ISO 15552 applications, look at AirTAC's tie-rod series.
No. The fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the piston at stroke end; they do not lock or brake. For load holding, add a mechanical lock, rod brake, or pilot check valve.
