The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X70SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 70mm 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 ACED32X70SB pushes a 32 mm bore through a 70 mm stroke with a piston rod leaving BOTH covers. Because each side works on the rod-side area, output is identical in either direction: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa. The male rod thread (B code) and the fitted -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches come as ordered, and the through-rod resists rotation while the rear rod can carry a sensor flag.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with a hard-chrome-plated S45C rod runs at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbing stroke-end shock. Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and gantries. In practice, plan on roughly 200 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which is about 20 kg of vertical lift 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.
| 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).

| ×70 | 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 the rear rod kick a finished aluminium bracket off the jig while the front rod retracts a stop, both strokes delivering the same 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa.
A rod on each cover means one cylinder can push cartons from either side of a transfer point with equal 483.8 N force at 0.7 MPa, and the fitted magnet feeds CMSE switch signals to the PLC.
The non-rotating through-rod drives a small linear slide for electronics assembly, while the back-end rod mounts a flag read by a DMSE switch at both stroke ends.
At 345.6 N per direction at 0.5 MPa, this bore sits between the 25 mm size (206.2 N) and the 40 mm size (571.8 N), so pick 25 mm for lighter clamps and 40 mm when you need roughly 65% more force. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder will drift if air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the male-threaded rod ends. The 70 mm stroke is well inside the 200 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 32, and the fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report position.
Quick checklist
Output is equal in both directions because a rod exits each cover and both strokes use the rod-side area: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um, operating pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature -20 to +70 C. The 1/8" port matches the 32 mm bore, the rod is 12 mm with male thread, and the 70 mm stroke is within the 200 mm standard maximum.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, freeing space in guarded machines and tight fixtures. This ACED32X70SB carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE reed or DMSE solid-state switches clamp into the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling; models ordered without the S code have no magnet. A fixed TPU bumper at each cover absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and remember the piston will drift if air pressure is lost.
