The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X200 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 200mm 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 heavy-duty double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED100X200 pushes a 100 mm bore through a 200 mm stroke with a rod leaving BOTH covers. Because each side sees 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/pull imbalance to compensate for in your force budget.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tooling plate. At 0.5 MPa that 3769.9 N rating works out to roughly 384 kg of raw lift, so planning around half of it lets the cylinder raise about 192 kg vertically with margin to spare. The hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, a fixed TPU bumper decelerates both ends of travel, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s across 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

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.

|---|---|
| 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.
A 200 mm stroke reaches deep into a pallet-nesting press, and the 3769.9 N both-ways force stamps batch codes identically on the advance and return legs.
The symmetric through-rod carries a lift frame from both ends, raising battery trays of about 190 kg vertically at 0.5 MPa with a 2:1 margin.
Mounted on LB feet beside a conveyor, the rear rod drives a flag for end-of-stroke confirmation while the front rod squares 25 kg cases at up to 500 mm/s.
At this force class the nearest smaller step is the 80 mm bore at 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa; if your load needs more than about 2262 N of usable work (0.6 of this bore's rating), the 100 mm is the right pick, and the 125 mm bore at 5890.5 N covers heavier presses. The 200 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a standard build. Remember this is not a position holder: if the load must stay put on air loss, add a rod lock or pilot check valve. Choose FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles, and order the -S code only if you need the optional magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double-rod design means both strokes use the rod-side area, so output is equal either 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) with proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 1/4" port suits this 100 mm bore.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose hard-anodized aluminium body cuts mounting length by about 50% versus an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with an S45C hard-chrome-plated 20 mm rod and female M12x1.75 thread. Fixed TPU bumpers at each end absorb end-of-stroke shock. FA/FB flanges, LB foot and FTC brackets bolt to the standard face, and the magnet is the optional -S code - without it no CMSE or DMSE switch can be fitted.
