Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X30SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X30SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 30mm 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 ACED100X30SB
A double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACED100X30SB delivers 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa in either direction because both strokes use the rod-side area. The 100 mm bore turns 0.7 MPa into 5277.9 N, with a peak of 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into presses and gantries where a full-length body cannot.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tooling plate. This -S version carries the optional magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly on the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod runs 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 2270 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa - about 115 kg of vertical lift 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 ACED100X30SB Is Used
Pneumatic press head
The 3769.9 N both-ways force at 0.5 MPa drives a short-strike press or staking head in a 30 mm stroke cycle, with the TPU bumper softening each end stop.
Reciprocating conveyor pusher
Equal force in both directions makes the through-rod ideal for a push-pull transfer on a bottling line, switching parts between lanes at 30-500 mm/s.
Position-flagged die clamp
With the -S magnet fitted, CMSE or DMSE switches confirm clamp and unclamp on a stamping die fixture, while the rear rod carries a second flag.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X30SB the Right Cylinder?
At 3769.9 N per direction, the 100 mm bore sits between the 80 mm (2356.2 N) and the 125 mm (5890.5 N) sizes; step down for lighter clamping, up for heavy die work. The male rod thread (B code) suits clevis-mounted tooling, and FA/FB flanges or LB feet bolt to the ISO 21287 face. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder will not hold position if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for a suspended load.
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 ACED100X30SB FAQ
No - it is a double-rod cylinder, so force is equal in both directions: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa on either stroke, peaking at 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with air filtered to 40 um, proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed 30-500 mm/s.
The compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, freeing space in tight fixtures, and FA/FB flanges, LB feet or FTC brackets bolt straight to its face. The S in ACED100X30SB means the optional magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be clamped into the body slots for end-position sensing.
