About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X125B
A double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED100X125B pushes a 100 mm bore through a 125 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers. Because each side works on the rod-side area, output is a matched 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction - no push-versus-pull mismatch to design around. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to your tooling.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into presses, gantries and guarded cells where a full-length body will not reach. As a working rule, keep real work near 2262 N (about 230 kg) at 0.5 MPa, or plan vertical lifts around 190 kg with a 2:1 margin. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a 20 mm S45C hard-chrome rod, a fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, and the through-rod resists rotation so the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Note: no magnet is fitted on this code - order the -S version if you need CMSE / DMSE switch sensing.

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 ACED100X125B Is Used
Pneumatic press station
The 3769.9 N rod-side force at 0.5 MPa stakes, rivets or presses bushings into aluminium housings on an automotive sub-assembly line, with equal return force for part ejection.
Balanced reciprocating lifter
A rod on each cover lets the back rod counter-guide a fixture or carry a flag, so a packaging machine raises and lowers a 190 kg pallet plate vertically with a 2:1 margin.
Dual-side clamp fixture
In a CNC machining cell, the through-rod clamps a casting from one end while the opposite rod actuates an ejector pin, all inside the short ISO 21287 envelope.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X125B the Right Cylinder?
At bore 100 you get 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa; step down to the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N) for lighter clamping or up to the 125 mm bore (5890.5 N) when the load grows. The 125 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm max standard stroke for this bore. If the load must stay put when air is lost, pair the cylinder with a rod lock or pilot check - the bare cylinder will drift. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the male-threaded rod end.
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 ACED100X125B FAQ
Output is equal both ways because the double rod means both strokes use the rod-side area: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa, 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 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um.
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, LB or FTC mounting on the standard face. Sensing needs the optional -S magnet code - this B-suffix model has no magnet, so order ACED100X125BS to run CMSE / DMSE switches.
