Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X300
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X300 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 300mm 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.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X300
A double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED100X300 pushes a 100 mm piston through a 300 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers. Because both strokes work on the rod-side area, output is identical in each direction: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, equal push and pull. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and its rear end doubles as a mounting point for a sensor flag or a second tool.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated rod runs at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. At 300 mm the stroke sits exactly at the bore's maximum standard length, so no made-to-order build is needed. For vertical work, the 0.5 MPa force equals about 384 kgf, so plan on lifting roughly 192 kg 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 ACED100X300 Is Used
Reciprocating press fixture
The equal 3769.9 N output both ways suits a stamping or riveting head that must strike with the same force on the return pass, with the 300 mm stroke clearing the die between cycles.
Pallet lift-and-lower column
With about 192 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the through-rod can carry the lift plate on one end and a guide or position flag on the other.
Bidirectional conveyor pusher
A rod on each cover lets one cylinder divert cartons from either side of a packaging line, replacing two single-rod units and halving the mounting length against an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X300 the Right Cylinder?
At this force class the ACED100X300 delivers 3769.9 N per direction at 0.5 MPa; a smaller ACED63X300 gives 1458.1 N and a larger ACED125X300 reaches 5890.5 N, so size by part weight plus friction. Remember the piston will drift if air pressure is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay held. Mount with FA/FB flanges, LB foot brackets or FTC feet, and add I or Y rod knuckles on both ends. If you need end-of-stroke switching, order the -S variant so CMSE / DMSE switches can ride the body; this model without -S carries no magnet.
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 ACED100X300 FAQ
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, 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of about 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, on air filtered to 40 um.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so a 300 mm stroke fits gantries and guards that a full-length cylinder cannot. A fixed TPU bumper at each cover absorbs end-of-stroke impact but does not hold or brake a load - use a rod lock or pilot check for that. Mounting bolts to the standard ISO 21287 face via FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches.
