Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X25S
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X25S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 25mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X25S
A double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED100X25S pushes a 100 mm bore through a 25 mm stroke and delivers 3769.9 N in BOTH directions at 0.5 MPa, because a rod exits each cover and both strokes use the rod-side area. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tooling plate. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating, running 30-500 mm/s.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight presses and gantries. Fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke shock at both ends. This S-code model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be fitted for end-position sensing. As a rule of thumb, plan on about 2262 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 192 kg vertically 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.
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 ACED100X25S Is Used
Short-stroke press station
A 25 mm stroke with 3769.9 N both ways at 0.5 MPa suits a compact benchtop press that crimps terminals or stakes inserts in electronics assembly.
Symmetric lift column
The through-rod gives identical mounting top and bottom, so a packaging machine can raise and lower a 190 kg tray platform with equal force either way.
Position-monitored clamp
With the fitted -S magnet, CMSE or DMSE switches confirm full clamp and release on a robotic weld fixture, wired to the PLC end-of-stroke inputs.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X25S the Right Cylinder?
At 3769.9 N per stroke at 0.5 MPa, the 100 mm bore sits well above the 63 mm size (1458.1 N) when you need real clamping or lifting muscle; if the load is lighter, the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N) may be enough. The 25 mm stroke suits short-travel press, locate and clamp duties. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the 20 mm rod.
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 ACED100X25S FAQ
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, output is equal on both strokes: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, both directions, from the rod-side area. At 1.0 MPa the peak rating is 768.8 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed spans 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short-body design saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. This S-code unit carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount in the body slots for end-position detection.
