About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X10B
The ACED125X10B is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format. A 25 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod exits BOTH covers, so the 125 mm bore delivers an identical 5890.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 8246.7 N at 0.7 MPa in each direction - both strokes work on the rod-side area, so there is no push-versus-pull difference. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to your tooling.
Because the through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, this 10 mm stroke unit suits short-throw clamping and pressing where alignment matters. The hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and the fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 3534 N (about 60% of rating) of real work at 0.5 MPa - that is a vertical lift of around 180 kg with a 2:1 margin. Air supply: 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C.

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 ACED125X10B Is Used
Short-stroke press stamping
A 10 mm throw with 5890.5 N at 0.5 MPa marks or stamps batch codes on aluminium extrusions without a full-length cylinder hanging off the frame.
Clamp fixture on a CNC fixture plate
The male-threaded 25 mm rod and symmetric through-rod mount clamp heavy castings from either side with equal force, inside tight fixture envelopes.
Gate indexing on a foundry line
Equal force both directions seats a heavy sand-gate either way at 30-500 mm/s, with the back-end rod carrying a position flag on the fixture.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X10B the Right Cylinder?
At 5890.5 N @0.5 MPa this is the top of the ACED range - step down to the 100 mm bore (3769.9 N) for lighter presses, or note that 125 mm is already the largest standard bore. The 10 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a standard build. If the load must stay put when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check - a plain double-rod cylinder will drift. Mounting: FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the ISO 21287 face. This code has no magnet; order the -S version if you need CMSE / DMSE switch positions.
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 ACED125X10B FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, force is EQUAL in both directions: 5890.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 8246.7 N at 0.7 MPa (rod-side area on every stroke). At the 1.0 MPa maximum that reaches about 1201.3 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s. For real work, budget roughly 3534 N at 0.5 MPa - about 180 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.
The hard-anodized aluminium body follows the ISO 21287 short format, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end to soften end-of-stroke impact. The 1/4" ports (PT thread) suit the 125 mm bore, and FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC mounting bolts to the standard face. The magnet is the optional -S code - this unit has none, so add -S if you want CMSE / DMSE switches.
