The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X175SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 175mm 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.
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED100X175SB pushes a 100 mm bore through a 175 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers, so thrust is identical on the out-stroke and the return. At 0.5 MPa each direction delivers 3769.9 N, rising to 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The male-threaded 20 mm rod on each end gives a symmetric mount, resists rotation and side load, and leaves the rear rod free for a sensor flag or a second tooling point.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated rod runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s, from -20 to +70 C, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this bore class fits press fixtures and gantries where a full-length body will not. For positioning, the fitted -S magnet works with CMSE / DMSE switches. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 2260 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which is about 192 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.

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.
| 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).

ACE-family variants: ACE (double acting), ASE / ATE (single acting push / pull), ACED (double rod), ACEJ (adjustable stroke), TACE / TACED (non-rotating twin-guide yoke). Mounting accessories: FA / FB flange, LB foot, CA / CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, FTC; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G.
The 3769.9 N equal force in both directions lets one ACED100X175SB clamp a steel weldment on the press stroke and eject it on the return, with the male rod thread taking a custom clamp tip.
A packaging line cross-transfer uses the through-rod to drive a pusher plate at 30-500 mm/s, with the rear rod carrying a flag past a DMSE switch to confirm each cycle.
Handling about 192 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin, the cylinder lowers a fixture nest onto locating pins and retracts it, the short ISO 21287 body fitting the tight gantry beam.
At 0.5 MPa this 100 mm double-rod unit gives 3769.9 N in both directions. 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 needs more margin. The 175 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a standard build. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. FA/FB flanges, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I and Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and the -S magnet in this model lets CMSE / DMSE switches report position.
Quick checklist
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area, so output is equal in each direction: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa. The peak rating at 1.0 MPa is 768.8 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
The S means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clamped into the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling. The ISO 21287 compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC mounts plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt directly to the standard face.
