Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X175B
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X175B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 175mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X175B
The ACED50X175B is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 16 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod exits BOTH covers, so the 50 mm bore delivers 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa (1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa) in each direction, since both strokes work on the rod-side area. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to your tooling, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed range 30-500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so this 175 mm stroke unit fits tight gantries, lift stations and guarded cells. Because a rod sticks out the rear cover too, the back rod can carry a sensor flag or a counter-guide, and the through-rod resists rotation and side load better than a single-rod design. The hard-anodized, roller-burnished aluminium bore and threaded aluminium covers keep it serviceable for years.

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 ACED50X175B Is Used
Symmetric lift column
The through-rod pushes and pulls with the same 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa, ideal for raising and lowering a packaging-machine crossbar where up-force and down-force must match.
Reciprocating fixture clamp
Male-threaded 16 mm rod on both ends lets a machining cell clamp a workpiece from one side and drive a position flag from the other, inside the 175 mm stroke.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X175B the Right Cylinder?
Size check: if 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa is more than your job needs, the ACED40X... class gives 571.8 N on the same rod-side logic; if you need more, step up to the 63 mm bore for 1458.1 N. This 175 mm stroke sits inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 50, so it ships as a catalogue item, not a made-to-order build.
This unit has no magnet fitted - order the -S code instead if you want CMSE / DMSE switches to read position. Mount with FA/FB flanges, LB feet or FTC brackets on the ISO 21287 face, and use I or Y rod knuckles on the male-threaded rod. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put.
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 ACED50X175B FAQ
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so force is equal both ways because both strokes use the rod-side area of the 50 mm piston. Figures: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa, 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 179.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and fixed TPU bumpers handle end-of-stroke deceleration. Sensors are not included as standard: this model has no magnet, so order the optional -S version to enable CMSE / DMSE switch mounting in the body slots.
