The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED25X80B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 80mm 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.
This ACED25X80B is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 25 mm bore with an 80 mm stroke and a 10 mm rod leaving both covers, so thrust is identical on each stroke - 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa, with a peak of 42 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to tooling, and the M5x0.8 port suits small air lines. Air filtered to 40 um, 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) operating range, speed 30-500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarding. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, and the hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod resists wear. For sizing, treat roughly 124 N as the practical working force at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting about 10 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note the through-rod does not hold position if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load.

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.
| 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).

ACE-family variants: ACE (double acting), ASE / ATE (single acting push / pull), ACED (double rod), ACEJ (adjustable stroke), TACE / TACED (non-rotating twin-guide yoke). Mounting accessories: FA / FB flange, LB foot, CA / CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, FTC; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G.
The symmetric through-rod gives a stable, rotation-resistant mount for grippers moving 10 kg-class parts between nests, with equal 206.2 N force on extend and retract.
The 80 mm stroke advances a workpiece into a drilling or tapping station, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag when the optional -S magnet is ordered.
M5x0.8 ports and 30-500 mm/s speed control suit compact dispensing heads where the same push and pull force in both directions keeps motion repeatable.
At 206.2 N per direction this 25 mm bore sits between the 20 mm size (117.8 N) and the 32 mm size (345.6 N) at 0.5 MPa - step up if your tooling mass exceeds about 10 kg of vertical lift. The 80 mm stroke is well inside the 150 mm standard maximum for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed. Choose the B male rod thread for direct fixture attachment, add FA/FB flange or LB foot brackets from the ISO 21287 mounting family, and remember the optional -S code is what enables CMSE / DMSE switch sensing - without it there is no magnet.
Quick checklist
Yes - because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area. Output is 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction, with a maximum of 42 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, air filtered to 40 um, temperature -20 to +70 C.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with FA/FB flange, LB foot and I/Y rod knuckles bolting to the standard face. A fixed TPU bumper at each end decelerates the piston at end of stroke; it is not adjustable and never holds a load - use a rod lock or pilot check for that. Position sensing needs the optional -S magnet code, which allows CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S no magnet is fitted.
