The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X10 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/8" 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.
The ACED32X10 is a double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287 with a rod leaving both covers, so the 32 mm bore delivers an identical 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke because both sides work on the rod-side area. The 10 mm stroke suits short indexing moves where a full-length body would never fit: the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Ports are 1/8" and the female rod thread is M8x1.25.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and its rear end can carry a sensor flag on a fixture. A hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore runs against an S45C hard-chrome plated rod, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbing end-of-stroke shock. At 0.5 MPa plan on roughly 207 N of usable push, which is about 21 kg of real work, and the rod will lift about 17 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. 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.
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 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 345.6 N clamp and release force from the through-rod holds a machined housing in a drill jig, and the 10 mm stroke keeps the clamp arm inside a tight fixture plate.
A 10 mm kick moves cartons between lanes at up to 500 mm/s, and the rear rod end carries a flag so a CMSE or DMSE switch confirms position when the -S magnet is ordered.
With about 17 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the double rod raises a small test head squarely and lowers it with equal force, guided by the rotation-resistant through-rod.
For this 32 mm class, 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa both ways covers small clamping and transfer heads; step down to the 25 mm bore (206.2 N) for lighter tooling or up to the 40 mm bore (571.8 N) when the load grows. The 10 mm stroke is well inside the 200 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check where a load must stay put. Mount with FA/FB flanges, LB feet or FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles, and if you need end-of-stroke sensing order the -S code, since without it no magnet is fitted and no CMSE or DMSE switch can be read.
Quick checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal in both directions: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 70.5 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 1/8" port depends only on the 32 mm bore.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it bolts into tight gantries and guards, with FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y knuckles. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Switching requires the optional -S magnet code; without it no magnet is present, so CMSE or DMSE switches cannot be mounted.
