Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X60B
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X60B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 60mm 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 ACED100X60B
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED100X60B pushes a 20 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so the 100 mm bore delivers an identical 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa in each direction - both strokes work on the rod-side area. At 0.7 MPa that rises to 5277.9 N either way, with a peak of 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to your tooling.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this bore size fits presses and fixtures where a full-length body will not. A practical sizing check: plan on roughly 2262 N (about 60% of rating) for real work at 0.5 MPa, and for vertical duty the rod lifts about 192 kg with a 2:1 margin. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a fixed TPU bumper at each end, and the through-rod resists rotation and side load while the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s.

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 ACED100X60B Is Used
Compact stamping press
The 3769.9 N bidirectional force at 0.5 MPa punches and ejects aluminium terminal blanks in a 60 mm stroke, and the short body slots into a press frame too tight for a full-length profile cylinder.
Reciprocating transfer arm
With a rod at each cover, the arm clamps on the forward stroke and retracts with equal 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, while the rear rod drives a flag past a position sensor on a conveyor gantry.
Pallet lift-and-lower station
The through-rod keeps a lift plate square under side load and raises about 192 kg of packaged goods vertically with a 2:1 margin, the male threaded rod making fixture attachment simple.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X60B the Right Cylinder?
At this force class the neighbours matter: the 80 mm bore ACED gives 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to 125 mm reaches 5890.5 N - so pick the 100 mm when your press or clamp needs between 2400 and 5800 N. The 60 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm max standard stroke for this bore. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the male threaded rod. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. This code has no magnet; order the -S version if you want CMSE / DMSE switch positions.
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 ACED100X60B FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, output is equal both ways (rod-side area): 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, peaking at 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, air filtered to 40 um, speed 30-500 mm/s and -20 to +70 C temperature range.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome-plated 20 mm rod, about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Switches need the optional -S magnet code - this version has no magnet, so order ACED100X60BS to run CMSE or DMSE sensors.
