Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X60SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X60SB 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 ACED100X60SB
A double acting compact cylinder with a piston rod leaving BOTH covers, the ACED100X60SB delivers 3769.9 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa because both strokes work on the rod-side area of the 100 mm bore. The 60 mm stroke suits short-travel clamping and pressing where a full-length body would never fit: the ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a 20 mm S45C hard-chrome-plated rod at each end, so the through-rod resists rotation and side load and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. This -S model carries the optional magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches mount directly in the body slots. At 0.5 MPa the usable push is roughly 2262 N (about 60% of rating), which lifts around 192 kg vertically 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 ACED100X60SB Is Used
Press-fit of bushings into pump housings
The 3769.9 N per-direction thrust at 0.5 MPa presses small bushings and bearings into aluminium pump housings, and the 60 mm stroke matches short press dies on a compact bench frame.
Symmetric clamping of machined castings
With a rod on each cover, one rod clamps a gearbox casting against a fixture while the opposite rod carries an alignment pin - equal force both ways keeps the part square.
Position-flagged lift station on a packaging line
The rear rod drives a flag past a CMSE switch (enabled by the fitted -S magnet) to confirm each 60 mm lift of a carton stack, at cycle speeds up to 500 mm/s.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X60SB the Right Cylinder?
At 3769.9 N per side at 0.5 MPa this 100 mm bore sits between the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N) and the 125 mm bore (5890.5 N); step down if your press force is under 2300 N, step up above 3800 N. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. The male rod thread (B code) suits clevis or knuckle joints, and FA flange or LB foot brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face; the fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report end positions out of the box.
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 ACED100X60SB FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design puts a 20 mm rod on both covers, so both strokes use the rod-side area. At 0.5 MPa you get 3769.9 N each way; at 0.7 MPa, 5277.9 N each way; the maximum at 1.0 MPa is 768.8 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed spans 30-500 mm/s.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits tight gantries and guards. Each end carries a fixed TPU bumper that softens the piston arrival only - it does not adjust and it never holds a load when air is lost. This unit carries the -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be clipped into the body slots, and FA flange or LB foot brackets mount on the standard ISO 21287 face.
