Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED25X30B
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED25X30B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 30mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED25X30B
The ACED25X30B is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format. A 10 mm hardened rod exits BOTH covers, so the 25 mm bore delivers an identical 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa in each direction - both strokes work on the rod-side area, with 288.6 N available at 0.7 MPa. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to your tooling, and the PT port takes M5x0.8 fittings.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore and S45C hard-chrome rod shrugs off wear in high-cycle jigs, and the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder - ideal where a full-length body simply will not fit. In practice, plan for roughly 123 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which means this unit lifts about 10 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.

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 (Ø25mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 42 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 ACED25X30B Is Used
Symmetric clamp fixture
The male-threaded rod on both ends lets one cylinder clamp a machined housing from two sides with equal 206.2 N force, halving fixture count on a CNC pallet.
Product pusher on a packaging line
Equal force in both directions suits a reciprocating pusher that diverts cartons between conveyor lanes at 30-500 mm/s without a direction-dependent speed change.
Guide-rod slide alternative
The second rod resists rotation and side load, so it can carry a sensor flag or guide a light slide on an electronics assembly station - add the -S magnet code to read position with CMSE or DMSE switches.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED25X30B the Right Cylinder?
At 206.2 N per side, the 25 mm bore sits between the 20 mm (117.8 N) and 32 mm (345.6 N) classes - step down for lighter pick-and-place arms, up if your fixture needs more push. The 30 mm stroke is well inside the 150 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. Remember the through-rod does not hold position when air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check for a suspended load. Mounting brackets (FA/FB flange, LB foot, FTC) plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the ISO 21287 face. This code has no magnet - order the -S variant if you need CMSE / DMSE switch sensing.
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 ACED25X30B FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design means both strokes use the rod-side area, so output is equal both ways: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 42.0 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 port is M5x0.8 (PT).
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose short hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with fixed TPU bumpers at both ends and FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC mounting on the standard face. Sensing is not included in this code: order the -S variant to get the optional magnet, then fit CMSE or DMSE switches in the body slots.
