The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X75S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 75mm 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.
This double acting ACED100X75S carries a 100 mm bore and a 75 mm stroke on a through-rod: a 20 mm piston rod leaves both covers, so thrust is identical on the extend and return strokes - 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction. The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into press frames and welding fixtures where a full-length body cannot. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped straight onto the body.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore runs against an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Because the rod exits the rear cover too, the back rod can carry a sensor flag or a symmetric fixture plate while resisting rotation and side load. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s across 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 2260 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, and expect the rod to lift about 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.
| 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).

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 3769.9 N both-ways force at 0.5 MPa suits a light staking or marking press on aluminium brackets, with the 75 mm stroke clearing the part by hand between cycles.
A through-rod clamps a steel tube assembly from both sides of a rotary welding jig, and the fitted magnet feeds rod-position signals to the PLC via CMSE switches.
Swing or lift gates on a warehouse conveyor line use the symmetric double-rod mount, with the short ISO 21287 body fitting inside the guard channel.
At 3769.9 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 100 mm bore sits between the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N) and the 125 mm bore (5890.5 N); drop to 80 mm if your load is under about 1400 N of real work, step up to 125 mm only if the 100 mm bore stalls. The 75 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder will drift when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the 20 mm rod; the fitted magnet pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches for end-of-stroke signalling.
Quick checklist
It is a double-rod cylinder, so force is equal both ways: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa on both the extend and return strokes, since both sides work on the rod-side area. Peak output at 1.0 MPa is 768.8 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The S means the optional magnet is fitted on this unit, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots for position feedback. Mechanically it is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder: hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome-plated 20 mm rod exiting both covers, 1/4" PT ports, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end that only decelerates the piston at stroke ends - it never holds or brakes a load, so use a rod lock or pilot check where position must be kept.
