The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X80B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 80mm 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.
The ACED32X80B is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format. A 12 mm rod exits both covers, so the 32 mm bore delivers the same 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke, and the through-rod resists rotation and light side load while the rear rod end can carry a sensor flag. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to tooling, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock at speeds of 30-500 mm/s.
Because the hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, this 80 mm stroke model slots into tight fixtures, guarding and gantries. Run it on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), from -20 to +70 C. For real work, plan on roughly 207 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 21 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note the magnet is not fitted: order the -S code to enable CMSE / DMSE switches.

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).

| 32 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×80 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSE / DMSE sensors (omit for no magnet). |
| B | Rod type: B = male thread; blank = female thread. |
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 equal 345.6 N force in both directions lets one ACED32X80B clamp and release a CNC fixture with identical force, the through-rod keeping the tooling plate square.
An 80 mm stroke at 30-500 mm/s diverts cartons between lanes, with the TPU bumpers absorbing the end-of-stroke shock at each divert.
With the -S magnet ordered, CMSE / DMSE switches read both rod ends, so a rotary indexing table gets home and end signals from one compact body.
At 345.6 N per side, the 32 mm bore sits between the 25 mm (206.2 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 40 mm (571.8 N at 0.5 MPa); step up if your clamp or press needs more margin. This 80 mm stroke is well inside the 200 mm standard limit for bore 32, so no made-to-order build is required. The B code gives a male M8x1.25-class rod thread on both ends - confirm the exact thread from the datasheet - and FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the ISO 21287 face. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost, so use a rod lock or pilot check where a load must be held, and add the -S magnet only if you need CMSE / DMSE position sensing.
Quick checklist
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 and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range 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.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the standard face, and the B code gives a male rod thread. Position sensing needs the optional -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches; this model ships without a magnet.
