Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X45SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X45SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 45mm 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 ACED100X45SB
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED100X45SB pushes a 100 mm piston through a 45 mm stroke with a rod leaving BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on the extend and retract strokes: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, equal in both directions. The hard-anodized aluminium body pairs with a 20 mm S45C hard-chrome rod, and the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
Because the through-rod resists rotation and side load, the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tooling plate while the front rod does the work. Plan on roughly 2262 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa, which is about 192 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin - enough to raise a 190 kg pallet clamp head. The S in the code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE switches mount directly in the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, ports are 1/4", and the B code gives a male rod thread.

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 ACED100X45SB Is Used
Press-fit station on an automotive bracket line
The equal 3769.9 N thrust in both directions lets one cylinder press a bushing home on the extend stroke and eject the finished bracket on the return, with the 45 mm stroke matching a shallow die set.
Vertical lift on a packaging machine guard
With about 192 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin, the through-rod raises and lowers a heavy interlock gate symmetrically, and the short body fits inside the guard frame where a full-length profile cylinder will not.
Indexing table with position feedback
The fitted -S magnet and CMSE / DMSE switches confirm each 45 mm index of a rotary indexing fixture, while the back-end rod drives a cam flag that trips a second sensor for redundancy.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X45SB the Right Cylinder?
At this force class the 100 mm bore delivers 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa in either direction; step down to a 63 mm bore for 1458.1 N or up to a 125 mm bore for 5890.5 N if the load changes. Remember the piston will drift if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a held position matters. The male rod thread (B) suits clevis-style tooling, FA/FB flange or LB foot brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report end positions. Standard strokes for this bore run to 300 mm, so 45 mm is a standard build.
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 ACED100X45SB FAQ
Yes - a rod exits both covers, so both strokes use the rod-side area of the 100 mm bore. Output is 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, equal extend and retract, with a maximum of 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, and the male rod thread is 20 mm diameter.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and gantries. The S means the optional -S magnet is fitted on this model, allowing CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches in the body slots; without the S code there is no magnet. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and FA/FB flange or LB foot brackets bolt straight to the standard face.
