The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X35SB 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.
The ACED40X35SB is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format. A 12 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod exits both covers, so the 40 mm bore delivers 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 800.5 N at 0.7 MPa in BOTH directions - the same rod-side area works each way. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to external tooling, and the fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report piston position.
The hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures and guarded cells. Fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke shock at both covers, and the through-rod resists rotation while the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. At 0.5 MPa, plan on roughly 343 N (about 35 kg) of usable vertical work rather than the full rating. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s over 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.
| 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. |
| ×35 | 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 through-rod pushes and pulls with identical 571.8 N force at 0.5 MPa, ideal for a pick-and-place gantry that must grip and release a machined housing with the same clamp energy each way.
With about 35 kg of practical vertical capacity at 0.5 MPa, the 35 mm stroke suits light staking or marking of aluminium connector shells on a compact assembly bench.
The fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches at both ends, so a packaging line can confirm full advance and retraction of a carton ejector within the 30-500 mm/s speed band.
For a 35 mm stroke with equal push and pull, this 40 mm double-rod unit gives 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa each way; step down to the 32 mm bore (345.6 N) for lighter clamping or up to the 50 mm bore (881.2 N) for heavier press-fit work. Remember the piston will drift if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay held. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets mount on the standard ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the male thread.
Quick checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area, so force is equal in each direction: 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) and proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The ISO 21287 short body cuts mounting length by about 50% versus an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and the 35 mm stroke keeps the envelope small. This version carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped to the body slots; fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the piston at each end.
