The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED40X75S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 75mm 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.
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED40X75S pushes a 12 mm 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 - no push/pull imbalance to design around. The through-rod resists rotation and modest side load, and its rear end doubles as a handy carrier for a sensor flag or a second tooling plate.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 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. A hard-anodized aluminium body runs on an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbing end-of-stroke shock. Because this model carries the -S magnet code, CMSE or DMSE switches can be clipped onto the body slot for end-of-stroke signalling. At 0.5 MPa plan on roughly 343 N (about 35 kgf) of usable work force, or lift roughly 29 kg vertically 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.
| 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).

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 gives an identical 571.8 N push on either end, so one cylinder can eject a machined aluminium housing off the fixture and return a stop pin with the same force profile.
On a beverage conveyor, the rear rod carries a flag plate while the fitted -S magnet drives CMSE switches, confirming each 75 mm push of a 29 kg crate stack at 0.5 MPa.
A compact analytical press uses the back-end rod to mount a counter-face anvil, keeping the 40 mm bore's 800.5 N at 0.7 MPa balanced across both tools in a short 75 mm envelope.
At 571.8 N per direction, this bore sits between the 32 mm size (345.6 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 50 mm size (881.2 N at 0.5 MPa) - step down for lighter clamping, up for heavier presses. The 75 mm stroke is well inside the 200 mm standard limit for bore 40, so it ships as a catalogue item. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost: for a held vertical load, pair it with 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, and the fitted -S magnet means CMSE / DMSE switches work out of the box. Air supply: 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), filtered to 40 um; speed range 30-500 mm/s.
Quick checklist
Yes - because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use 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 pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C on air filtered to 40 um.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so the 75 mm stroke fits shallow slides and guarded cells. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slot for end-of-stroke detection. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and FA/FB flange, LB foot, FTC or I/Y knuckle hardware bolts straight to the standard face.
