Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X175S
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X175S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 175mm 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 ACED40X175S
The ACED40X175S is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format: a piston rod leaves both covers, so the 40 mm bore delivers the same 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa (800.5 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke, whichever end you push from. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries magnet slots, and this model ships with the optional -S magnet already fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped on for end-of-stroke signalling. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs the impact of the 175 mm travel.
The through-rod does more than double the mounting faces: it resists rotation and side load, gives a symmetric fixture interface, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tool. In practice the 571.8 N rating translates to roughly 343 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, and the rod-side area lifts about 29 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Running speed spans 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

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 ACED40X175S Is Used
Symmetric press fixture
A 40 mm double-rod cylinder pushing 571.8 N from either face suits a benchtop staking or marking press where the tool must enter and exit through both sides of the jig.
Reciprocating gate drive
Equal force both directions makes the ACED40X175S a clean fit for a sliding machine guard or indexing gate on a packaging line, with the -S magnet and a DMSE switch confirming each end position.
Guided vertical lifter
With about 29 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the through-rod can raise a small pallet or tray stack in an assembly cell while resisting the rotation a single rod would allow.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X175S the Right Cylinder?
At 40 mm bore this sits between the 32 mm ACED (345.6 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 50 mm ACED (881.2 N at 0.5 MPa), so pick the 32 if your clamp force is under 350 N and step up to the 50 when you need near 900 N. The 175 mm stroke is inside the 200 mm standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed. Remember the piston will drift if air is lost - for a held vertical load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. FA/FB flanges, LB feet, FTC brackets and I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face; the female M8x1.25 rod thread takes standard tooling plates.
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 ACED40X175S FAQ
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area of the 40 mm bore: 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 800.5 N at 0.7 MPa, identical on extend and retract. At 1.0 MPa the peak is 116.6 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so the 175 mm stroke fits tight gantries and guarded cells. The S means the optional -S magnet is fitted on this model, enabling CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches in the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and mounting is via FA/FB flange, LB foot, FTC bracket or I/Y rod knuckles on the standard ISO 21287 face.
