The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X70S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 70mm 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.
The ACED100X70S is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 100 mm bore with a 70 mm stroke and a 20 mm rod leaving both covers, so output force is equal in both directions at 3769.9 N per stroke at 0.5 MPa (5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa). Because the body is a short ISO 21287 design, it saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is what lets it slot into heavy presses and gantries where a full-length body will not fit. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a roller-burnished bore, and the S45C hard-chrome-plated rod resists wear on both ends.
This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clamped into the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling. A fixed TPU bumper at each cover absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the through-rod resists rotation and side load while giving a symmetric mount - the rear rod can even carry a sensor flag. Practical sizing: plan on roughly 2262 N (about 231 kg) of usable work at 0.5 MPa, and with a 2:1 margin the rod lifts about 192 kg vertically. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed range 30-500 mm/s, ports 1/4" PT, female rod thread M12x1.75.

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.

|---|---|
| 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).

ACE-family variants: ACE (double acting), ASE / ATE (single acting push / pull), ACED (double rod), ACEJ (adjustable stroke), TACE / TACED (non-rotating twin-guide yoke). Mounting accessories: FA / FB flange, LB foot, CA / CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, FTC; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G.
The equal 3769.9 N force in both directions lets one ACED100X70S both compact and retract a platen in a small scrap or packaging baler, with the 70 mm stroke matching shallow compaction bins.
A through-rod clamps from one end while the rear rod synchronizes a mirror arm on pallet transfer carts, and the short ISO 21287 body fits the low cart deck.
With the fitted -S magnet and CMSE switches, the cylinder signals up/down position as it raises a pop-up stop between conveyor rollers, the 20 mm rod handling side load from passing totes.
At 3769.9 N per stroke at 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore sits well above the 63 mm size (1458.1 N) and below the 125 mm size (5890.5 N), so choose it when a 63 mm unit is under-rated but a 125 mm body is too large. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - for a held vertical load, add a rod lock or pilot check valve. The 70 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, and FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face. The fitted -S magnet means CMSE / DMSE switches work out of the box.
Quick checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, 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 maximum of 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, ports 1/4" PT and female rod thread M12x1.75.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches mount in the body slots; FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y knuckles bolt to the standard face.
