Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X100SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X100SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X100SB
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED125X100SB pushes a 125 mm piston through a 100 mm stroke with a rod leaving BOTH covers. Because each side sees the rod-side area, output is identical in either direction: 5890.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 8246.7 N at 0.7 MPa, the strongest bore in the ACED range. 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.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated rod runs at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into heavy presses and gantries where a full-length body will not fit. As a rough sizing rule, treat roughly 3534 N (about 300 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin) as the practical working load at 0.5 MPa. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be mounted for end-of-stroke detection.

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 ACED125X100SB Is Used
Heavy stamping die clamping
The 5890.5 N symmetric force clamps large die sets from both sides on a press line, with the 100 mm stroke clearing die changes quickly at up to 500 mm/s.
Pallet lift-and-lower column
A rod on each cover gives a symmetric mast mount; the through-rod resists rotation as about 300 kg is lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin at 0.5 MPa.
Baler ram positioning
In a recycling baler, the rear rod carries a sensor flag while CMSE switches on the -S magnet confirm ram home and extended positions.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X100SB the Right Cylinder?
At 5890.5 N per direction at 0.5 MPa, bore 125 is the top of the ACED line - step down to bore 100 (3769.9 N) for lighter clamping or up from bore 80 (2356.2 N) when 100 mm of stroke and symmetric tooling are needed. The 100 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a catalogue item. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder will drift if air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. Pair it with FA/FB flange or LB foot brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles on the ISO 21287 face, and keep the -S magnet on this code if CMSE / DMSE switching is planned.
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 ACED125X100SB FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design means both strokes use the rod-side area, so force is equal either way: 5890.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 8246.7 N at 0.7 MPa (22-145 psi working, 1.5 MPa / 215 psi proof). At 1.0 MPa the peak rating is 1201.3 kgf. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s and the rod is 25 mm with a male thread (B code).
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, freeing space in tight machines. A fixed TPU bumper at each cover decelerates the piston at the ends of travel. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE reed or DMSE solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots for position feedback.
