The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X275 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 275mm 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 ACED100X275 pushes a 100 mm bore through a 275 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers. Because both strokes work 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 each direction - no push/pull mismatch to design around. The through-rod also resists rotation and carries a rear sensor flag or second tooling point.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated rod saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into long-stroke gantries and press frames where space is tight. Fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke shock at both covers, speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). For sizing, plan on about 2260 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 115 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.
| 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 matched 3769.9 N stroke in both directions lets one ACED100X275 eject a formed steel bracket on the forward stroke and retract the die plate with identical force, all inside a frame shortened by the compact ISO 21287 body.
Paired rods give a symmetric lift column for a 200 kg pallet fixture; with a 2:1 margin the usable vertical load is about 115 kg per cylinder, so two units share the duty comfortably at 0.5 MPa.
A 275 mm stroke sweeps full shrink-wrap bundles across a conveyor lane, and the rear rod mounts a flag for position feedback when the optional -S magnet and a DMSE switch are ordered.
At 3769.9 N per side at 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore suits heavy clamping and lifting; step down to the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N) for lighter loads or up to the 125 mm bore (5890.5 N) when force margin matters. The 275 mm stroke sits inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a catalog item. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for held loads. Female M12x1.75 rod thread, 1/4" PT ports, and FA/LB/FTC mounting bolt onto standard ISO 21287 fixtures; order the -S code if you need the optional magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double-rod design exposes the rod-side area on both strokes, so output is equal each way: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum 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, freeing space in long-stroke gantries. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke impact but are not adjustable and never hold a load - use a rod lock or pilot check where position must be kept. Mounting is via FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets with I/Y rod knuckles, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches.
