Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X50SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X50SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 50mm 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 ACED100X50SB
A double acting AirTAC compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED100X50SB pushes a 100 mm bore through a 50 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers. Because each side sees the rod-side area, output is a matched 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa in either direction, rising to 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa. The B code gives a male rod thread, and the S code means the magnet is already fitted for CMSE / DMSE switch mounting.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s, from -20 to +70 C. Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into wide clamping bridges and gantry presses where a full-length body will not fit. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, and the through-rod resists rotation while the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. At 0.5 MPa the thrust equals about 384 kgf, so halving for a 2:1 margin lets it lift about 115 kg vertically.

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 ACED100X50SB Is Used
Gantry press stations
The 3769.9 N symmetric thrust at 0.5 MPa suits a 50 mm-stroke stamping or riveting head on a gantry, where the short ISO 21287 body keeps the Z-axis envelope tight.
Twin-sided part ejectors
With rods exiting both covers, one cylinder can push a casting off a fixture and drive a stripper plate at the rear, both at 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa.
Pallet lift-and-lower posts
Paired double-rod units lift about 115 kg per cylinder vertically at a 2:1 margin, ideal for raising pallets or fixtures on automated assembly lines.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X50SB the Right Cylinder?
For this 50 mm stroke, the 100 mm bore delivers 3769.9 N both ways at 0.5 MPa; step down to the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N) for lighter press-fit work or up to the 125 mm bore (5890.5 N) for heavy forming. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for held loads. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the 20 mm male-threaded rods.
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 ACED100X50SB FAQ
It is double acting with a rod at both covers, so force is equal in both directions: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa on every stroke, with a peak 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), and speed 30-500 mm/s.
The S code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling. The male-threaded 20 mm rods take I or Y knuckles, while FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets attach to the standard ISO 21287 mounting face.
