The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X35B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 35mm 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 ACED50X35B pushes a 16 mm hard-chrome rod out of BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on every stroke: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa, whichever way the piston travels. The 50 mm bore runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) of 40 um filtered air at 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbing stop energy.
The short hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight fixtures and guarded machines. Because the through-rod exits both ends, it resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount - the rear rod can even carry a sensor flag. Planning a lift? At 0.5 MPa the rod-side area equates to roughly 90 kg of vertical pull, so size real work around 529 N (about 54 kg) to keep a healthy margin. Rod end is male thread (B code) and the port is 1/8".

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).

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 881.2 N equal-thrust through-rod clamps machined aluminium housings from a single body, letting one fixture face do both hold-down and support without a second cylinder.
A 35 mm stroke diverts cartons between lanes at up to 500 mm/s, and the rear rod carries a flag so the line PLC reads gate position once the optional -S magnet is ordered.
With about 90 kg of vertical force equivalent at 0.5 MPa, the 50 mm bore suits bench-top sample presses where the compact body must fit under a fixed guard frame.
At 881.2 N per direction, the 50 mm bore sits between the 40 mm (571.8 N) and 63 mm (1458.1 N) options - step down for lighter clamping, up when the load needs more than about 90 kg of pull. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check where a load must stay put. Mount with FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles on the ISO 21287 face. This version has no magnet: order the -S code if you want CMSE / DMSE switch position sensing.
Quick checklist
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so a rod exits both covers and both strokes use the rod-side area. Output is 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa in EITHER direction, 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, and the 1/8" port suits the 50 mm bore.
It follows ISO 21287, so the hard-anodized aluminium body is roughly 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder - ideal where space is tight. A fixed TPU bumper at each end decelerates the piston at the stops. Mounting uses FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets with I/Y rod knuckles, and position sensing via CMSE / DMSE switches is possible only when you order the optional -S magnet code; this version ships without a magnet.
