Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X15SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X15SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 15mm 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 ACED50X15SB
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED50X15SB pushes a 16 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on every stroke: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa, equal in both directions because each side works on the rod-side area. The male rod thread (B code) suits external nuts and tooling plates, and the 15 mm stroke keeps the whole unit inside a 15 mm working window.
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 guarding and small jigs. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, the hard-anodized aluminium body runs on an S45C hard-chrome rod, and because this model carries the -S magnet, CMSE / DMSE switches can be clipped straight onto the body.

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 (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 881 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1234 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 180 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 ACED50X15SB Is Used
Short-stroke jig clamping
The 15 mm stroke and 881.2 N of force in both directions make this a natural fit for clamp-and-release fixtures on CNC machining fixtures where space is tight.
Balanced push-pull transfer
With a rod at each end and equal force both ways, one ACED50X15SB can push a pallet forward and retract it with the same 881.2 N, replacing two single-rod cylinders in a compact assembly station.
Position-monitored ejector
The fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches confirm extend and retract on a small ejection or kick-off module, with the rear rod available to carry a sensor flag or tooling.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X15SB the Right Cylinder?
At 881.2 N per direction, this bore sits between the 40 mm size (571.8 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 63 mm size (1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa) - step down if your load is under 500 N, step up if you need over 1200 N of working force. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. Bolt it on with FA/FB flanges, LB feet or FTC brackets, add I or Y rod knuckles at the male thread, and keep the -S magnet in mind when position feedback via CMSE / DMSE switches is needed.
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 ACED50X15SB FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area, so force is equal in both directions: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa. At the full 1.0 MPa rating the maximum output is 179.7 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed range is 30-500 mm/s.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. This model includes the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly on the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, and FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the standard ISO 21287 face. Port size is 1/8".
