Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X35S
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X35S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 35mm 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 ACED40X35S
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED40X35S pushes a 12 mm hard-chromed rod out of BOTH covers, so the 40 mm bore delivers an identical 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa (800.5 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke. Because the through-rod is gripped at each end, it shrugs off rotation and light side loads and gives you a symmetric mounting face. The hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), from 30 to 500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287 body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight pick-and-place gantries and guarded cells. The S in the model code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches read position right off the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper at each end softens end-of-stroke contact, and the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tooling plate. For vertical work, treat about 343 N as the practical working force at 0.5 MPa - roughly 29 kg lifted 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 ACED40X35S Is Used
Symmetric push-pull stamping die clamp
The through-rod lets a fixture clamp a stamped bracket from both sides with one cylinder, since the 40 mm bore gives an equal 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa on the clamp and release stroke.
Pick-and-place transfer arm on a PCB line
A 35 mm stroke suits short shuttle moves between conveyor stops, and the fitted -S magnet feeds CMSE switches so the PLC confirms home and extend positions at up to 500 mm/s.
Bottle-lane gating on a filling machine
The back-end rod drives a gate flag while the front rod carries the gate blade, and the compact body fits the narrow guard space where an ISO 15552 profile cylinder will not.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X35S the Right Cylinder?
At 571.8 N per direction, this 40 mm bore sits between the 32 mm class (345.6 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 50 mm class (881.2 N at 0.5 MPa) - step down for lighter clamps, up if your part mass creeps past about 29 kg on vertical lifts. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. Bolt it on with FA/FB flanges, LB feet or FTC brackets, add I or Y rod knuckles, and the fitted -S magnet means CMSE / DMSE switches work out of the box. Female M8x1.25 rod thread, PT ports, 1/8".
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 ACED40X35S FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design exposes the rod-side area on both strokes, so output is identical either way: 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. In practice, plan on roughly 343 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa, which is about 29 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow machine frames and guarded cells. The S code means the optional -S magnet is fitted on this model, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount in the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke impact, and FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC mounts bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face.
