The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X275B 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 ACED100X275B pushes a 100 mm bore through a 275 mm stroke with a rod leaving BOTH covers. Because each side sees the rod-side area, output is identical in both directions: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, peaking at 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tooling plate.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so this 275 mm stroke fits deep slides and gantries where a full-length body will not. A hard-anodized aluminium body runs on an S45C hard-chrome rod, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. As a working rule, plan on roughly 2262 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which is about 192 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s.

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 275 mm stroke ejects a full layer from a pallet stack in a warehouse depalletizer, with 3769.9 N available in both directions so the return stroke clears the lane just as hard.
An automotive subassembly line uses the through-rod to press axle bushings home from one side while the rear rod drives an ejector pin, replacing two separate cylinders.
In a forklift battery swap station, the symmetric double rod pushes a 190 kg tray onto the charger cradle and retracts it with equal force, guided by the rotation-resistant through-rod.
At 3769.9 N per direction, bore 100 sits between bore 80 (2356.2 N) and bore 125 (5890.5 N) at 0.5 MPa. If your load is under about 2262 N of real work, bore 80 saves air and space; if you need more than 3800 N, step up to 125. The B code gives a male M12x1.75 rod thread on both ends. This unit ships without a magnet - order the -S code instead if you want CMSE / DMSE switch positions. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for held loads. FA/FB flange and LB foot brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double-rod design means both strokes use the rod-side area, so force is equal both ways: 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. It runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air filtered to 40 um, at 30-500 mm/s and -20 to +70 C, with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
The B code gives a male M12x1.75 thread on both rod ends, on a 20 mm hard-chrome S45C rod, with a 1/4" PT port and fixed TPU bumpers at each end. Sensing is not fitted as standard: order the -S variant to get the optional magnet that lets CMSE or DMSE switches read position along the body slots.
