Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED16X75B
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED16X75B 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 ACED16X75B
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED16X75B pushes a piston rod out of BOTH covers, so the 16 mm bore delivers an identical 75.4 N at 0.5 MPa (105.6 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke, whichever end works. The male-threaded 8 mm rod (the B code) suits knuckle and tooling attachments, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with speed from 30 to 500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into slim slides and guarded stations. Because the through-rod resists rotation and carries a symmetric load, one cylinder can drive a workpiece on the front rod while the rear rod carries a sensor flag. For position sensing, order the optional -S code to add the magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches - without -S there is no magnet. As a rule of thumb, plan on about 45 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 3.8 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

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 ACED16X75B Is Used
Reciprocating parts transfer
The rear rod of the through-rod design can push a pallet back on the return stroke, matching the 75.4 N forward push at 0.5 MPa in a compact pick-and-place gantry.
Sensor-flag test station
Mount a flag on the back rod to trip a proximity sensor while the front rod presses a 3.8 kg component into a test fixture at 30-500 mm/s.
Small-parts press fit
With about 45 N of practical working force at 0.5 MPa, the male-threaded 8 mm rod drives bushings into small housings inside tight machine guards.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED16X75B the Right Cylinder?
At 75.4 N per direction, 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 if your clamp or eject needs more than about 45 N of working force. The 75 mm stroke is the maximum standard stroke for bore 16, so no made-to-order build is required. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switch mounting.
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 ACED16X75B FAQ
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so a rod exits both covers and both strokes use the rod-side area. Force is 75.4 N at 0.5 MPa and 105.6 N at 0.7 MPa in EACH direction, with a maximum of 15.4 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, port M5x0.8, rod 8 mm with male thread.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. Switches are possible only when you order the optional -S code, which adds the magnet for CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches; without -S there is no magnet in the piston.
