Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X10
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X10 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. Its short compact envelope saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X10
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED100X10 pushes a 100 mm bore through a short 10 mm stroke with a piston rod leaving BOTH covers. Because each side works on the rod-side area, output is identical in either direction: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, with a peak of 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium body pairs with an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod and a fixed TPU bumper at each end to soak up end-of-stroke shock.
The through-rod is the working advantage here: it resists rotation and side load, gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag on a clamping or press-fit station. As a rule of thumb, keep real work near 2262 N at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting roughly 192 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight press benches and guarded cells. Note that position is not held if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACE-series (ISO 21287) datasheet. Body: hard-anodized aluminium alloy; piston rod: S45C carbon steel with hard-chrome plating. Rod type: female thread (blank) or male thread (B). Thread options: PT (blank) / G. A built-in magnet is OPTIONAL — add the -S code to fit CMSE / DMSE position sensors.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3770 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5278 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 769 kgf |
Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used).

Where the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X10 Is Used
Short-stroke press station
A 10 mm stroke delivering 3769.9 N both ways suits staking, marking or swaging heads on an electronics assembly bench where full-length cylinders cannot fit under the press frame.
Symmetric part ejector
With a rod on each cover, the same 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa can push a machined housing off a fixture from either side, and the rear rod doubles as a mount for a position flag.
Clamp-and-lift pallet riser
On a pallet transfer line, the through-rod resists the side load of a rising platen while the bore's lift capacity of about 192 kg vertically (with margin) handles loaded trays.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X10 the Right Cylinder?
At 3769.9 N per direction, this bore sits between the 80 mm frame (2356.2 N) and the 125 mm frame (5890.5 N) at 0.5 MPa, so pick it when a 10 mm clamp or eject stroke needs serious force in a short envelope. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) through a 1/4" port, speed 30-500 mm/s. The female M12x1.75 rod thread on both ends accepts standard rod knuckles (I or Y); FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face. This code has no magnet - order the -S version if you need CMSE / DMSE switch sensing.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short stroke fits the compact body
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S if you need the magnet for sensors
- ✓ Rod type (female / male B) & mount (FA/LB/CA)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Compact body: keep the stroke short and avoid side load on the rod.
- check Do not dismantle the threaded front/back covers.
- check Keep speed within the rated range; the TPU bumper absorbs stroke-end energy.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X10 FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design means both strokes use the rod-side area, so output is equal each way: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, peaking at 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, temperature -20 to +70 C.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets bolt straight to its face. Sensing requires the optional -S magnet code: this ACED100X10 has no magnet fitted, so order ACED100X10S to run CMSE or DMSE switches along the body slots.
