About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X10SB
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED40X10SB pushes a 12 mm hard-chrome S45C rod out of BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on each stroke: 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 800.5 N at 0.7 MPa. The 40 mm bore delivers up to 116.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa, and the 10 mm stroke suits short indexing moves. Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight jigs, guards and gantries.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag on a pick-and-place head. This S-code model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the hard-anodized aluminium body with threaded aluminium covers keeps service simple. Plan on roughly 343 N (about 35 kg) of usable work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating, or about 29 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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø40mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 572 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 800 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 117 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 ACED40X10SB Is Used
Fixture clamping on a CNC pallet
The 10 mm stroke clamps a machined blank against a hard stop, with 571.8 N holding force from each rod end at 0.5 MPa and the short body fitting under the fixture plate.
Product reject pusher
A rear-rod sensor flag with a CMSE switch confirms extend position as the cylinder kicks off-spec cartons from a packaging line conveyor.
Symmetric slide actuation
The through-rod drives both sides of a small linear slide in an electronics assembly gantry, giving equal 800.5 N thrust at 0.7 MPa in each direction.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X10SB the Right Cylinder?
At 571.8 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 40 mm bore sits between the 32 mm (345.6 N) and the 50 mm (881.2 N) classes - choose 32 mm for lighter clamps, 50 mm when the load creeps up. The 10 mm stroke is well inside the 200 mm max standard for this bore. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must be held. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and the male rod thread (B code) suits external rod couplings.
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 ACED40X10SB FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal in both directions (rod-side area): 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 800.5 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 116.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed range 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow machine frames. This model carries the optional -S magnet, letting CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches clip into the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and FA/FB flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the standard face.
