Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X300B
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X300B 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 ACED100X300B
A double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED100X300B pushes a 100 mm bore through a 300 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers. Because each side works on the rod-side area, output is a matched 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa in either direction - no push-pull imbalance to design around. At 0.7 MPa that rises to 5277.9 N, and the bore tops out near 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod keeps the package short: mounting length drops about 50% versus an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into presses and gantries where a full-length body will not fit. As a working rule, size real work to roughly 2260 N at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting about 190 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The through-rod at the rear can carry a sensor flag, and the fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s over 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.
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 ACED100X300B Is Used
Baler ram return
The rear rod balances the front ram on a small scrap baler, so the 3769.9 N return stroke at 0.5 MPa retracts the platen as firmly as it advances - no separate return cylinder needed.
Pallet stacker lift
With about 190 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the 300 mm stroke raises stacked cartons between conveyor levels, and the through-rod resists the side load of an off-center pallet.
Twin-sided gate drive
A sliding furnace door driven from both rod ends gets equal 5277.9 N force at 0.7 MPa in open and close directions, with the fixed TPU bumpers taking the slam at each stop.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X300B the Right Cylinder?
For this force class, the 80 mm bore delivers 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa while stepping up to 125 mm gives 5890.5 N - the 100 mm sits squarely between them at 3769.9 N. The 300 mm stroke matches the maximum standard stroke for this bore, so no made-to-order length is needed. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. Male rod thread (B code) on a 20 mm rod, PT ports, and FA/FB flange or LB foot brackets bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face. If you need CMSE or DMSE switches, order the -S variant - this code 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 ACED100X300B FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, force is identical in both directions: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, both measured on the rod-side area. At the full 1.0 MPa rating the 100 mm bore reaches about 768.8 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters on a 300 mm stroke where every millimetre counts. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt directly to the standard face, and the B code gives a male M12x1.25-class rod thread on the 20 mm rod - confirm the exact thread from the datasheet. The fixed TPU bumper at each end only decelerates the piston; it never holds a load. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet with CMSE or DMSE switches - this unit has no magnet fitted.
