The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X110B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 110mm 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.
Double acting with a double rod, the ACED40X110B pushes a piston rod out of BOTH covers of a 40 mm bore, so the output force is identical in each direction: 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 800.5 N at 0.7 MPa on either stroke. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag, while fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke energy at both ends. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The body is hard-anodized aluminium with an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod, built to the short ISO 21287 compact format that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder - handy inside tight machine guards. At 0.5 MPa the 571.8 N rating works out to roughly 343 N of practical work, which lifts about 17 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that no magnet is fitted on this code; the optional -S version accepts 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 | 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).

|---|---|
| 40 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×110 | 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 571.8 N output in both directions lets one ACED40X110B clamp a steel bracket from either side on a machining line, with the through-rod keeping the tool plate square under side load.
A rear rod on the ACED40X110B carries a flag for a proximity sensor while the front rod pushes cartons off a 600 mm belt at 30-500 mm/s, with TPU bumpers softening each end stop.
About 17 kg vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin suits raising a small die nest in a sheet-metal press station, where the 110 mm stroke fits the shallow ISO 21287 body under the bolster.
For 110 mm of stroke at this force class, bore 40 is a solid middle pick: 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa both ways. Step down to bore 32 (345.6 N) for lighter clamping, or up to bore 50 (881.2 N) when the part is heavier. The 110 mm stroke sits well inside the 200 mm standard maximum for this bore, so it ships as a standard build. Because a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. The B code gives a male M8x1.25 rod thread; pair it with FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets, and order -S if you need CMSE / DMSE position sensing.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double-rod design puts a 12 mm rod through both covers, so every stroke uses the rod-side area of the 40 mm bore. Output is 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 800.5 N at 0.7 MPa in EITHER direction, with a maximum of 116.6 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, temperature -20 to +70 C.
The ISO 21287 short body takes roughly half the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into cramped fixtures. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets bolt to the standard face, and the B code provides a male M8x1.25 rod thread on a 1/8" PT port. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code - this model has no magnet fitted, so order ACED40X110SB to run CMSE or DMSE switches.
