Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X45SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X45SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 45mm 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 ACED40X45SB
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED40X45SB pushes a 12 mm hard-chrome rod out of BOTH covers, so the 40 mm bore delivers an identical 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa in either direction - there is no weaker pull stroke. The male rod thread (B code) suits external nuts and knuckles, and the fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report end positions without any add-on bracket.
The short hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight guarding and slide fixtures. At 0.5 MPa the rod-side thrust of 571.8 N equals roughly 58 kg of pull, so plan on lifting about 29 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin, or count on around 343 N of usable work force. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs stroke-end shock, and speed spans 30-500 mm/s.

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 ACED40X45SB Is Used
Gantry pick-and-place
The through-rod gives a symmetric mount on a Z-axis gantry; with about 29 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin it handles small castings and fixture plates at 30-500 mm/s.
Reciprocating test slide
Equal 571.8 N thrust in both directions makes push-pull cycling of a test sled or burn-in rack symmetric, and the fitted -S magnet feeds CMSE switch signals to the PLC at each end.
Carton pusher on a packaging line
A 45 mm stroke clears a 40 mm carton lane; the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tool, while the fixed TPU bumpers soften each end-of-stroke stop.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X45SB 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) - choose down if your load is under 200 N, up if you need over 600 N. The 45 mm stroke is well inside the 200 mm standard limit for this bore, so it ships as a catalog item. Note that like any plain double-rod cylinder it will drift if air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the male rod thread takes I or Y knuckles directly.
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 ACED40X45SB FAQ
Yes - because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area. At 0.5 MPa you get 571.8 N each way, at 0.7 MPa 800.5 N each way, and the maximum at 1.0 MPa is 116.6 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped onto the body slot for end-of-stroke sensing. Ports are 1/8" PT and the rod end is male thread; for exact outline dimensions, confirm from datasheet.
