Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X175B
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X175B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 175mm 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 ACED125X175B
A heavy-duty double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED125X175B pushes a 25 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on every stroke: 5890.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 8246.7 N at 0.7 MPa, whichever end you work from. The 125 mm bore sits at the top of the range, and the male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to your tooling. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and the fixed TPU bumper at each end takes the end-of-stroke shock.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters when a 175 mm stroke has to live inside a press frame or a guarded gantry. The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives you a symmetric fixture mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. At 0.5 MPa plan on roughly 3534 N of real work, and the rod will lift about 300 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note this cylinder drifts if air is lost - fit a rod lock or pilot check where a load must be held.

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 ACED125X175B Is Used
Heavy press and forming fixtures
5890.5 N at 0.5 MPa both ways gives a 125 mm bore the muscle for stamping, coining and crimping stations, and the 175 mm stroke clears the part for manual loading.
Pallet lift-and-lower stations
The through-rod lifts about 300 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin at 0.5 MPa, and the rear rod can carry a flag for a DMSE switch when the -S magnet is ordered.
Steel and aluminium handling gates
A symmetric double-rod mount resists side load on sliding gates and clamp arms in metalworking cells, with the fixed TPU bumper absorbing each end of travel.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X175B the Right Cylinder?
Size up or down by force: the 100 mm bore ACED delivers 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa, while this 125 mm bore gives 5890.5 N - a real step up for heavy clamping or lifting. If 175 mm is more travel than the job needs, the same bore is stocked to 300 mm standard stroke. Choose the B male rod thread for direct tooling attachment, or the blank female thread (M16x2.0) if your rod accessories screw on. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the through-rod. Add the -S code if you later want CMSE / DMSE switches - this unit ships without a 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 ACED125X175B FAQ
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so a rod exits both covers and every stroke uses the rod-side area. Output is 5890.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 8246.7 N at 0.7 MPa in EITHER direction, with a maximum of 1201.3 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, on air filtered to 40 um.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is an ISO 21287 compact design, about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with an S45C hard-chrome-plated 25 mm rod. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the standard face, and the B code gives a male rod thread. Position sensing needs the optional -S magnet code - this model has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches cannot be fitted unless you order -S.
