The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X200B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 200mm 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.
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED32X200B pushes a 12 mm hard-chrome rod out of BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on every stroke: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, whichever way the piston moves. The male rod thread (B code) on each end bolts straight to tooling, and the fixed TPU bumper at each cover absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters on a 200 mm stroke where every millimetre of envelope counts in a jig or gantry. With 345.6 N available, plan roughly 207 N (about 21 kg) of real work at 0.5 MPa, or match it to a vertical lift of around 17 kg with a 2:1 margin. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets mount on the standard face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches - without -S there is no magnet fitted.

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).

| ×200 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSE / DMSE sensors (omit for no magnet). |

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 through-rod lets a clamp arm ride on the front rod while the rear rod carries a position flag, with 345.6 N holding force identical on clamp and release strokes.
Equal force both ways makes this unit ideal for sliding pallets or trays between two stations on a small automation line at up to 500 mm/s.
Around 21 kg of usable thrust at 0.5 MPa ejects finished bushings or pins from a shallow die, with the 200 mm stroke clearing the part fully.
At 345.6 N per direction this bore 32 unit suits clamping and transfer tasks in the 20-30 kg class; step down to ACED25X200B (206.2 N) for lighter fixtures or up to ACED40X200B (571.8 N) when the load grows. Because it is double acting with no lock, a rod lock or pilot check valve is needed if the load must hold when air is lost. Choose the B male thread for direct tooling attachment, PT ports as standard (G on request), and add the -S code if CMSE / DMSE position sensing is planned.
Quick checklist
Yes - because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area, so force is equal either way: 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) and proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet ordered with the cylinder; only then can CMSE or DMSE switches be clipped to the body slots.
