Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X60SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X60SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 60mm 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 ACED32X60SB
The ACED32X60SB is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format. A 12 mm piston rod exits BOTH covers, so the 32 mm bore delivers 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa in EACH direction - both strokes work on the rod-side area, with no push-versus-pull difference. The B code gives a male M8x1.25 rod thread on each end, and the S code means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be mounted straight onto the body slots.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight jigs and gantries. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke shock. For planning: treat roughly 207 N as the usable working force at 0.5 MPa, which is about 17 kg held vertically with a 2:1 margin. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s.

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 ACED32X60SB Is Used
Reciprocating transfer slide
The through-rod gives an identical 345.6 N push and pull at 0.5 MPa, so a pick-and-place slide on a packaging line accelerates the same in both directions at up to 500 mm/s.
Gantry with end-position sensing
With the fitted magnet, CMSE or DMSE switches clip into the body slots to confirm extend and retract on a 60 mm stroke inside a compact gantry frame.
Symmetric clamping fixture
A machinist clamps and releases with equal force from either rod end, using the male M8x1.25 threads to bolt tooling plates on both sides of the fixture.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X60SB the Right Cylinder?
At 345.6 N per side, this bore sits between the 25 mm (206.2 N) and 40 mm (571.8 N) double-rod versions - step down if your load is under 200 N, step up if you need over 500 N. The 60 mm stroke is well inside the 200 mm standard range for bore 32. Because it is a plain double-rod cylinder, the piston will drift if air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the male threaded rod ends.
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 ACED32X60SB FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design exposes the rod-side area on both strokes, so force is equal either way: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating.
The ISO 21287 body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and the S code on this model means the magnet is already fitted - CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount in the body slots for position feedback. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke impact, and FA/FB flange or LB foot brackets bolt directly to the standard face.
