About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X90B
A heavy-duty double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED100X90B pushes a 100 mm bore through a 90 mm stroke with a 20 mm rod exiting BOTH covers. Because each side of the piston sees the rod-side area, output force is identical in both directions: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, peaking at 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to your tooling, and the through-rod resists rotation and side load while the rear rod can carry a sensor flag or a symmetric fixture.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore and an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod shrugs off wear in high-cycle service, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so this 90 mm stroke unit slots into presses and gantries where a full-length body will not fit. In practice, plan on roughly 2262 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, and it will lift about 192 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s over 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

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 ACED100X90B Is Used
Baling and compaction press
The symmetric 3769.9 N thrust in both directions suits a scrap or packaging compaction head on a 90 mm stroke, with the TPU bumper damping the return seat.
Pallet pusher on a transfer car
Equal force forward and back lets one cylinder square a loaded pallet either way, and the through-rod keeps the pusher plate from rotating under offset loads.
Lift-assist column in an appliance line
Lifts about 192 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin, ideal for raising washer drums or oven doors between stations at 30-500 mm/s.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED100X90B the Right Cylinder?
At 3769.9 N per direction, the 100 mm bore sits two steps above the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N) and one below the 125 mm bore (5890.5 N), so pick it when an 80 mm unit is marginal on force. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - for a held vertical load, pair it with a rod lock or pilot check valve. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and if you need position feedback, order the -S variant to enable CMSE / DMSE switches; this non-S code carries no magnet.
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 ACED100X90B FAQ
It is a double-rod, double-acting cylinder, so force is EQUAL both ways: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa in each direction, 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, and the bore is 100 mm with a 90 mm stroke and a 20 mm rod on both ends.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits tight machine frames. Air ports are 1/4" (PT thread) and the rod end is male thread (B code). Switches are not possible on this code as ordered: the magnet is the optional -S suffix, so order ACED100X90BS if you want CMSE or DMSE sensors on the body slots.
