The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X25SB 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.
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED50X25SB pushes a 50 mm bore through a 25 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers, so thrust is identical on every stroke: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa. The male rod thread on each end (the B code) bolts straight to tooling, and the through-rod resists rotation and side load while the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with speeds of 30-500 mm/s.
The short hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight clamping stations and gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. The S in this model code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, ready for CMSE or DMSE switches.

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).
| ACED | ISO 21287 compact cylinder (double-rod). |
|---|---|
| 50 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×25 | 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 (double rod, 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 symmetric 881.2 N stroke at 0.5 MPa suits a 25 mm press station on an automotive bracket line, with the male thread picking up the press anvil directly.
A rod on each cover lets one cylinder drive a workpiece and a mirror fixture at once on an electronics assembly gantry, keeping forces balanced both ways.
With the fitted -S magnet, CMSE or DMSE switches confirm rod position on a 25 mm index slide feeding a packaging machine's sealing head.
At 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa, bore 50 sits between the 40 mm class (571.8 N) and the 63 mm class (1458.1 N) - step down for lighter clamps, up for heavier presses. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. This unit already carries the -S magnet and the B male rod thread; FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets mount on the ISO 21287 face, and PT ports take 1/8" fittings.
Quick checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal both ways: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa on every stroke (rod-side area). At 1.0 MPa the peak is 179.7 kgf. Running pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, temperature -20 to +70 C.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets bolt to the standard face. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke impact. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped onto the body slots right away.
