Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X25B
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X25B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 25mm 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.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X25B
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACED32X25B pushes and pulls with identical 345.6 N output at 0.5 MPa because both strokes work on the rod-side area of the 32 mm bore. The male rod thread (B code) on each end bolts straight to tooling, and the through-rod resists rotation and side load while the free back-end rod can carry a sensor flag or a second fixture. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s over an operating pressure of 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so this 25 mm stroke unit slots into tight jigs and guarding where a full-length body will not fit. A hard-anodized aluminium body carries an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. For real-world sizing, keep working demand near 207 N at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting roughly 17 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that the piston drifts if air is lost - use a rod lock or pilot check where a load must be held.

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 (Ø32mm)
| 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).

Where the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X25B Is Used
Pick-and-place gripper actuation
The male-threaded through-rod drives a two-finger gripper on a small assembly robot, delivering 345.6 N of clamping force in both closing directions at 0.5 MPa.
Push-pull slide on a packaging line
A 25 mm stroke slides cartons between lanes; the symmetric double rod keeps the carrier square while the compact body fits under the guarding.
Fixture clamp with rear sensor flag
The back-end rod carries a flag for a switch (order the -S magnet code for CMSE/DMSE feedback) while the front rod clamps a machined housing in a drilling jig.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X25B the Right Cylinder?
At 345.6 N per direction this bore 32 unit sits between the 25 mm size (206.2 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 40 mm size (571.8 N at 0.5 MPa), so step up if your tooling mass approaches the 17 kg vertical-lift figure. The 25 mm stroke is well inside the 200 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, and longer travels are made to order. Choose FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles on the ISO 21287 face. This code has no magnet - add the optional -S to the ordering code if you need CMSE or DMSE switch position feedback.
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 ACED32X25B FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal both ways: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, both on the rod-side area of the 32 mm bore. At the 1.0 MPa maximum the rating reaches 70.5 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it suits cramped fixtures. The B code gives a male thread on each rod end; air ports are 1/8" PT. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets bolt to the standard face. A fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches.
