Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED16X75
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED16X75 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 75mm stroke, M5×0.8 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 ACED16X75
The ACED16X75 is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a piston rod leaves both covers, so the 16 mm bore delivers the same 75.4 N at 0.5 MPa (105.6 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke because both sides work on the rod-side area. The through-rod resists rotation and light side load, and the free back-end rod is handy for carrying a sensor flag or a symmetric tooling plate. Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures where a full-length body will not fit.
In practice the 75.4 N rating should be derated: plan on roughly 45 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 3.8 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin - enough for small covers, chutes or test fixtures. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a roller-burnished bore, the S45C rod is hard-chrome plated, and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke shock. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s over 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

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 (Ø16mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 75 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 106 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 15 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 ACED16X75 Is Used
Lab test fixture cycling
The equal 75.4 N push and pull at 0.5 MPa lets a small test rig load and unload a specimen at the same force, with the 75 mm stroke covering short-travel press-and-release cycles at up to 500 mm/s.
Pushing small parts off a chute
A derated 45 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa reliably nudges plastic caps or brackets off a conveyor edge, and the through-rod keeps the pusher square without an anti-rotation guide.
Gated inspection station
With the optional -S magnet ordered, CMSE or DMSE switches on the body report extend and retract positions of a vision-check gate that must fit in the compact 50%-shorter envelope.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED16X75 the Right Cylinder?
At 75.4 N per side this bore sits between the 12 mm ACED (42.4 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 20 mm ACED (117.8 N at 0.5 MPa); step up to 20 mm if your part weight approaches the 3.8 kg vertical-lift equivalent. The 75 mm stroke is the maximum standard stroke for bore 16, so no made-to-order build is needed. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. Order the -S code if you want the optional magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches; without it no sensor can be fitted. Female M4x0.7 rod thread, PT ports, with FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets bolting straight to the ISO 21287 face.
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 ACED16X75 FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design means a rod exits both covers, so both strokes use the rod-side area. Output is 75.4 N at 0.5 MPa and 105.6 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction, with a maximum of 15.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 75 mm stroke is the maximum standard stroke for the 16 mm bore.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body, hard-chrome plated S45C rod, threaded aluminium covers and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends to soften end-of-stroke impact. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code - without it there is no magnet and no switch can be mounted. With -S, CMSE or DMSE switches clip into the body slots. Mounting is via FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets on the standard ISO 21287 face.
