Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X45S
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X45S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 45mm 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 ACED50X45S
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED50X45S pushes a 16 mm 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. The 50 mm bore sits in the mid-force band, and the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight packaging guards and indexing fixtures.
The through-rod resists rotation and light side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag on a rotary table or lift arm. This -S model carries the optional magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots. Plan on roughly 529 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 45 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Ports are 1/8" PT, the rod thread is female M10x1.5, and a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end.

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 ACED50X45S Is Used
Bottling line pusher arms
The equal 881.2 N thrust in both directions gives identical push and return on a case pusher, and the 45 mm stroke matches a typical lane-to-lane transfer pitch.
Rotary indexing fixture clamp
The rear rod carries a sensor flag while the front rod clamps a machined housing, with CMSE switches reading both end positions on the -S magnet.
Small pallet lift station
About 45 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin suits raising loaded pallet plates at an assembly cell, with the through-rod keeping the platen level.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X45S the Right Cylinder?
At 881.2 N per direction, this bore covers mid-size clamping and lifting; step down to the 40 mm bore (571.8 N) for lighter tooling or up to the 63 mm bore (1458.1 N) when the load grows. Strokes to 250 mm are standard for this bore, so 45 mm is a stock length. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and I or Y rod knuckles suit the through-rod. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put.
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 ACED50X45S FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa, equal in each direction. At 1.0 MPa the ceiling is 179.7 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, running at 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, freeing space in guarded machines. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE switches mount in the body slots for end-position feedback. A fixed TPU bumper decelerates the piston at each end, and FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC mounting bolts straight to the standard face.
