Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X80B
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X80B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 80mm 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 ACED125X80B
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED125X80B drives a 25 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so the 125 mm bore delivers an identical 5890.5 N at 0.5 MPa in each direction - both strokes work on the rod-side area. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to your tooling. At 0.7 MPa the same bore reaches 8246.7 N either way, with a peak of 1201.3 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters when a 125 mm bore has to fit inside a press frame or clamp fixture. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 3534 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, and expect the rod to lift about 300 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs stroke-end shock, and the through-rod resists rotation and side load while giving you a rear rod for a sensor flag.

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 ACED125X80B Is Used
Press-frame clamping
The 5890.5 N bidirectional thrust and 80 mm stroke suit stamping and forming fixtures where the short ISO 21287 body must fit between platens.
Heavy pallet push-pull
Equal force both ways lets one cylinder eject and retract loaded pallets on a warehouse transfer cart, lifting about 300 kg vertically with margin.
Gantry lift-and-lower
A rod at each cover gives a symmetric mount on vertical gantries, with the rear rod carrying a position flag for the machine controller.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED125X80B the Right Cylinder?
For this force class the neighbours are bore 100 (3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa) if you need less thrust, or nothing larger - 125 mm is the top of the ACED range at 5890.5 N. Stroke 80 mm sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a catalogue item. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the port is 1/4" PT. This unit has no magnet: if you later need CMSE or DMSE switches, order the -S version instead. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads.
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 ACED125X80B FAQ
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so a 25 mm 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, identical push and pull, with a maximum of 1201.3 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is an ISO 21287 compact design, roughly 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke impact. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the standard face, and the B code gives a male rod thread. This version has no magnet - order the -S code if you want CMSE or DMSE switch capability.
