Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X10B
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X10B 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.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X10B
A double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED100X10B pushes a 100 mm piston through a short 10 mm stroke with a 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. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a roller-burnished bore, and the S45C piston rod is hard-chrome plated for long service.
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into shallow press fixtures and clamping stations where a full-length body cannot. At 0.5 MPa, plan on roughly 2262 N of usable work, and the rod-side force equates to lifting about 192 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock; speed range is 30-500 mm/s. Note that this plain cylinder drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check where a load must be held.

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 ACED100X10B Is Used
Short-stroke press fixture
The 10 mm stroke and 3769.9 N rod-side force both ways suit a compact stamping or marking head on an electronics assembly line, where the through-rod keeps the tooling plate square under side load.
Symmetric push-pull gate
Equal force in both directions drives a sliding guard or indexing gate on packaging machinery without a return spring, with the rear rod carrying a position flag for the PLC.
Clamp-and-lift station
With about 192 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the cylinder raises and lowers a jig table in a machining cell; the shallow body fits under the table where a longer profile cylinder will not.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X10B the Right Cylinder?
For this 100 mm bore the 10 mm stroke suits short-throw clamping and ejection moves; if you need more reach, the same bore runs to a 300 mm standard stroke, and stepping down to the 80 mm bore gives 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa while the 125 mm bore delivers 5890.5 N. Ports are 1/4" (PT thread on this code) and the rod ends in a male thread thanks to the B code. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the ISO 21287 face. This unit has no magnet - order the -S code if you want CMSE / DMSE switch detection.
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 ACED100X10B FAQ
As a double-rod cylinder, force is equal in both directions because both strokes use the rod-side area: 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. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end and FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC mounting on the standard face. Sensing is not included on this code: the magnet is the optional -S version, so order ACED100X10BS if you need CMSE or DMSE switches.
