Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X25
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X25 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 25mm 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 ACED50X25
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED50X25 pushes a 16 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so its 50 mm bore delivers 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa in each direction - the rod-side area works for both strokes. The short 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 fixture plates where a full-length body cannot go.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag on a transfer slide. A hard-anodized aluminium body pairs with an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. For planning: about 529 N of that 881.2 N is a realistic working force at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 45 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Speed range is 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 (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 ACED50X25 Is Used
Reciprocating transfer slide
The back-to-back rods let a 25 mm shuttle carry a fixture between two stations with equal 881.2 N force on the advance and return stroke at 0.5 MPa.
Clamp-and-present fixture
About 529 N of usable working force clamps an aluminium housing while the second rod end drives a part-present flag on the same body.
Pallet-stacker guide arm
Roughly 45 kg vertical-lift capacity with a 2:1 margin suits short-stroke guide or locate arms on warehouse handling equipment.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X25 the Right Cylinder?
At 50 mm bore this sits mid-range: a 40 mm ACED gives 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa, while a 63 mm ACED reaches 1458.1 N - step up if your part weight approaches the 45 kg vertical-lift figure. The 25 mm stroke is well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. Mounting: FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, with I and Y rod knuckles on the double rod. Rod end is female M10x1.5; add B for a male thread. Position is not held if air is lost - the piston drifts, so use a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. Sensors need the optional -S magnet code (CMSE / DMSE); this model without -S has no magnet fitted.
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 ACED50X25 FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal in both directions: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa, both ways. At 1.0 MPa the maximum is 179.7 kgf. 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, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end and FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC mounting. Sensors are not fitted as standard: order the optional -S magnet code to enable CMSE or DMSE switches on the body's magnet slots.
