Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X10
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X10 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 10mm 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 ACED125X10
A double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACED125X10 delivers 5890.5 N in either direction at 0.5 MPa because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The 125 mm bore is the largest in the ACED range, and the 10 mm stroke suits short clamp-and-release or eject steps where a long body would never fit. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into heavy jigs, press fixtures and gantry heads with room to spare.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag on a mating part. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated 25 mm rod stands up to continuous industrial duty. As a planning figure, about 3534 N (roughly 360 kg of push) is a realistic working load at 0.5 MPa, and with a 2:1 margin the rod lifts about 300 kg vertically. Note that the piston drifts if air is lost, so pair it with a rod lock or pilot check for held loads.

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 (Ø125mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 5890 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 8247 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1201 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 ACED125X10 Is Used
Heavy press fixture clamping
The 10 mm stroke is enough to swing a clamp arm over a cast-iron housing, and 5890.5 N at 0.5 MPa holds it through the machining cut from either side of the fixture.
Pallet-stacker load pusher
A short eject stroke on a warehouse transfer cart nudges pallets square to the stop; the through-rod mount keeps the push face square under off-center loads.
Steel coil edge squaring
On a coil-processing line, dual rods push and retract a squaring shoe with equal 8246.7 N force at 0.7 MPa, and the rear rod carries a position flag for the line PLC when the -S magnet is ordered.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X10 the Right Cylinder?
At 125 mm bore this is the top force class of the ACED line: 5890.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 8246.7 N at 0.7 MPa, equal both ways. If your load needs under 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa, the ACED100 saves space and air; if you need a non-rotating rod instead of a through-rod, look at the TACED. The 10 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. Mounting brackets such as FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC feet bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the 25 mm rod. This code has no magnet; add the optional -S code if you want CMSE / DMSE switch detection. Air supply should be filtered to 40 um, 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with rod thread M16x2.0 female and 1/4" ports.
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 ACED125X10 FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, output is equal in both directions: 5890.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 8246.7 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 1201.3 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed range 30-500 mm/s. Plan on roughly 3534 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, or about 300 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.
The compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters most at this bore size where full-length cylinders become very long. The fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy without adjustment. FA/FB flanges, LB and FTC feet and I/Y knuckles bolt to the standard ISO 21287 face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S no magnet is fitted.
