About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X50B
The ACED32X50B is a double acting, double-rod ISO 21287 compact cylinder from AirTAC with a 32 mm bore and 50 mm stroke. A 12 mm piston rod exits BOTH covers, so the output force is equal in both directions: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, on every stroke. The male rod thread (the B code) bolts straight to your tooling, and the 1/8" port feeds air on each end.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it drops into tight jigs and gantries. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries an S45C hard-chrome rod, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. In practice, plan on roughly 207 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 17 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The through-rod also resists rotation and side load, and the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s. Note: this unit has no magnet fitted - order the -S code if you need CMSE / DMSE switch positions.

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 ACED32X50B Is Used
Symmetric clamp fixtures
The through-rod clamps a machined aluminium housing from both sides of a CNC jig with equal 345.6 N force, so the part seats square without a second cylinder.
Pusher on a packaging line
A 50 mm stroke kicks cartons sideways off a conveyor at 30-500 mm/s, and the back-end rod carries a flag for the optional -S magnet and CMSE switch.
Lab press slide
The male rod thread drives a small test slide with about 17 kg of vertical lift capability at a 2:1 margin, inside a frame too short for a full-length profile cylinder.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X50B the Right Cylinder?
At 345.6 N (0.5 MPa) the 32 mm bore suits clamping and pressing fixtures in the 20-30 kg class; step down to the 25 mm bore (206.2 N) for lighter gates, or up to the 40 mm bore (571.8 N) when the load grows. The 50 mm stroke sits well inside the 200 mm max standard stroke for this bore. Mount with FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles on the ISO 21287 face. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must be held. If you need position sensing, order the -S variant to enable CMSE / DMSE switches.
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 ACED32X50B 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 on each stroke (rod-side area). Peak output is 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, -20 to +70 C.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end and FA/FB, LB or FTC mounting on the standard face. Switches are NOT possible on this exact code: it has no magnet. Order the -S version (optional -S magnet) to run CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches.
