The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X175S 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. Its short compact envelope saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
A double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACED50X175S pushes with the same 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa in either direction because both strokes work on the rod-side area. At 0.7 MPa that rises to 1233.7 N each way, and the bore tops out at 179.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the free back-end rod is a handy place to carry a sensor flag or a second tooling plate.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod runs at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. Its short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight packaging gantries. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 529 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 54 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 | 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).

|---|---|
| 50 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×175 | 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 881.2 N symmetric stroke squares and holds carton flaps from either side of the former, and the short body fits the cramped headspace above the sealing head.
A rod at each cover lets one cylinder push a machined housing off a fixture and return a flag on the rear rod, with equal 881.2 N force in both directions at 0.5 MPa.
With the fitted magnet and CMSE / DMSE switches, the 175 mm stroke reports mid-travel and end positions on an electronics assembly press running at 30-500 mm/s.
At 50 mm bore this unit delivers 881.2 N both ways at 0.5 MPa; step down to the 40 mm bore (571.8 N) for lighter clamping or up to the 63 mm bore (1458.1 N) when the load grows. The 175 mm stroke sits inside the 250 mm standard limit for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and this -S model carries the magnet for CMSE / DMSE switch mounting.
Quick checklist
Yes - because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area, so force is equal both ways: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa. The maximum output for this 50 mm bore is 179.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating, and speed range is 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod and a fixed TPU bumper at each end that decelerates the piston at stroke ends. The S in ACED50X175S means the optional magnet is fitted, so CMSE reed or DMSE solid-state switches can be clamped into the body slots for position feedback. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC mounting hardware plus I/Y rod knuckles attach directly to the standard face.
