About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X100
A double acting AirTAC ACED100X100 pushes a 100 mm bore through a 100 mm stroke, with a piston rod leaving both covers so the force is identical in each direction: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tool. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed range 30-500 mm/s, and a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end of travel.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters in press frames and gantries where every millimetre of depth counts. For sizing, treat roughly 2262 N (about 230 kgf) as the practical working force at 0.5 MPa, or plan vertical lifts of around 192 kg with a 2:1 margin. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries an S45C hard-chrome plated rod, ports are 1/4" PT, and the rod end is female M12x1.75.

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 ACED100X100 Is Used
Press and forming fixtures
The 3769.9 N symmetric force suits stamping, riveting and marking heads on short-stroke press frames, with the through-rod keeping the tool square under side load.
Pallet clamping on AGV lift decks
Around 192 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin covers clamp-down of palletised loads, and the compact body fits low deck profiles.
Heavy gate diverters on bottling lines
Equal push and pull at 5277.9 N per direction at 0.7 MPa swings heavy guide gates or pushers, with the rear rod carrying a position flag when the -S magnet is ordered.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X100 the Right Cylinder?
At 100 mm bore this is a heavy-class compact unit: 3769.9 N per direction at 0.5 MPa. If your load needs only about 2356 N, the ACED80 saves space and air; if it needs about 5890 N, step up to the ACED125. Remember the piston will drift if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Mount with FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles, and order the -S code if you want the optional magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches - without -S no magnet is fitted.
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 ACED100X100 FAQ
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so a rod exits both covers and both strokes use the rod-side area. Output is 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction, with a maximum of 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the bore 100 port is 1/4" PT with a female M12x1.75 rod thread.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight press and gantry frames. Switches are possible only when you order the optional -S magnet code, which enables CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state sensors in the body slots; without -S there is no magnet. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and FA/FB, LB and FTC mounting brackets bolt to the standard ISO 21287 face.
