Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X30SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X30SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 30mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X30SB
This ACED50X30SB is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format. A 16 mm piston rod passes through both covers, so the 50 mm bore delivers an identical 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa (1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke - no push-versus-pull mismatch. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to tooling, and the through-rod resists rotation while the rear rod end can carry a sensor flag. The -S magnet is fitted on this model, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore and S45C hard-chrome rod shrinks the mounting length by roughly 50% compared with an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight clamping fixtures and guarded machines. Fixed TPU bumpers at each end absorb end-of-stroke shock, and the 30 mm stroke runs at 30-500 mm/s on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered air.

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 ACED50X30SB Is Used
Clamp-and-index press fixture
The symmetric 881.2 N output lets one ACED50X30SB clamp a machined aluminium housing from either side of a drilling jig, with the 30 mm stroke clearing chip-sweep in under a second at 500 mm/s.
Bidirectional gate pusher on a packaging line
Equal force in both directions means the same cylinder rejects a passing carton left or right without recalibrating, and the fitted -S magnet drives a DMSE switch to confirm end positions.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X30SB the Right Cylinder?
At 881.2 N per direction, the 50 mm bore sits mid-range: step down to the 40 mm ACED (571.8 N at 0.5 MPa) for lighter pick-and-place arms, or up to the 63 mm bore (1458.1 N) when pressing or lifting heavier tooling. The 30 mm stroke is well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a catalogue item. Choose the male-thread rod (this B version) for direct nut fixing to grippers or jigs, or order the female-thread code where rod accessories do the joining. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the standard ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the male thread. If the load must stay put on air loss, pair the cylinder with a rod lock - the bumper never brakes a load.
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 ACED50X30SB FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design exposes the rod-side area on both strokes, so force is equal either way: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 179.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range 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, and temperature -20 to +70 C. For sizing, treat about 529 N (roughly 54 kg) as the practical working force, and note the cylinder drifts if air is lost - use a rod lock or pilot check to hold a load.
The short-body format saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so the 50 mm bore fits shallow gantries and guarded stations where a full-length body will not. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches clip into the body slots for end-position feedback without extra brackets. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends soften end-of-stroke impact, FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets mount on the standard face, and the male rod thread (B code) takes I/Y knuckles directly. Outline dimensions: confirm from datasheet.
