Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X60S
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X60S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 60mm 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 ACED50X60S
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED50X60S pushes a 16 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on the extend and retract strokes: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa. The 50 mm bore sits in a short hard-anodized aluminium body that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight jigs, guarding and gantry frames. A fixed TPU bumper at each end takes the end-of-stroke shock, and the through-rod resists rotation and light side load.
Because the magnet is fitted under the -S code, CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots for end-of-stroke or mid-stroke signalling. Practical sizing: at 0.5 MPa plan on roughly 529 N of real work (about 60% of the rating), and the rod will lift about 45 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The female M10x1.5 rod thread on both ends accepts standard rod knuckles, and the 1/8" port keeps plumbing simple. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s over 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

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 ACED50X60S Is Used
Symmetric press fixture
The equal 881.2 N thrust in both directions lets one ACED50X60S clamp a machined aluminium housing from either side of a CNC jig with identical pressure.
Counterweight-style lift slide
A rod on each cover balances the tooling plate on a packaging machine lift, raising about 45 kg with a 2:1 margin at 0.5 MPa.
Position-flagged transfer unit
With the -S magnet fitted, CMSE switches track piston position while the rear rod carries a sensor flag on a conveyor gating station.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X60S the Right Cylinder?
At 881.2 N per direction this bore covers mid-duty clamping and lifting; step down to the 40 mm bore (571.8 N at 0.5 MPa) for lighter tooling, or up to the 63 mm bore (1458.1 N) when the load grows. The 60 mm stroke is well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a catalogue item. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder will drift if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. FA/FB flanges, LB feet, FTC brackets and I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and the fitted -S magnet means CMSE/DMSE switches work out of the box.
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 ACED50X60S FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design exposes the rod-side area on both strokes, so output is equal each way: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa, with a peak of 179.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Never size it on a larger push figure; there is a rod on each side of the piston.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end to absorb end-of-stroke energy. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches clip into the body slots; FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC mounting all bolt to the standard face.
