Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X25S
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X25S 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 ACED32X25S
The ACED32X25S is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format. A piston rod leaves both covers, so the 32 mm bore delivers an identical 345.6 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa) because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The S in the code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped onto the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore carries an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod, and fixed TPU bumpers at each end absorb the impact of the 25 mm travel. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight jigs and guarding where a full-length body will not fit. In practice, plan on roughly 207 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which is about 21 kg of real working load, or around 17 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin.

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 ACED32X25S Is Used
Reciprocating test fixture
A through-rod on a 25 mm stroke pushes and pulls a connector test head with the same 345.6 N each way, while the rear rod carries a sensor flag for cycle counting.
Compact pick-and-place gantry
The short ISO 21287 body fits under a machine guard where an ISO 15552 profile cylinder would overhang, and the fitted magnet feeds a DMSE switch to the PLC.
Label press on packaging line
Equal force in both directions lets one cylinder press labels home and retract the pad at identical 345.6 N, with the TPU bumpers quieting each reversal.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X25S the Right Cylinder?
At 345.6 N per direction, the 32 mm bore sits between the 25 mm bore (206.2 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 40 mm bore (571.8 N at 0.5 MPa), so step up to 40 mm if your fixture needs more than about 200 N of working force. The 25 mm stroke is well inside the 200 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a catalogue item. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. FA/FB flanges, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and this model already carries the -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switching.
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 ACED32X25S FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, output is equal in both directions: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, on the rod-side area. The maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 70.5 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed range is 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 tight jigs and guarding. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots. The 1/8" port, female M8x1.25 rod thread and fixed TPU end bumpers round out the package; for exact outline dimensions, confirm from datasheet.
