The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED50X70 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 70mm 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.
The ACED50X70 is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format. A 16 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod exits BOTH covers, so the 50 mm bore delivers an identical 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa (1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa) in either direction - there is no push/pull imbalance because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The through-rod also resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod end gives you a free spot to carry a sensor flag.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with roller-burnished bore and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends runs at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s and -20 to +70 C on air filtered to 40 um. Because the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it slots into tight clamping fixtures and gantries. In practice, plan on roughly 529 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 27 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note: this code has no magnet fitted - order the optional -S version if you need CMSE / DMSE switch positions.

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. |
| ×70 | 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 (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 push and pull at 0.5 MPa lets one ACED50X70 press a bearing into a housing and retract the arbor with equal force on an assembly bench.
A rod at both ends gives mirrored mount points and rotation resistance, so the 70 mm stroke can drive a carriage forward and back at 30-500 mm/s without an anti-rotation guide.
The rear rod carries a flag for a position check (with the optional -S magnet and a CMSE switch), while the front rod folds flaps with about 529 N of usable force.
At 881.2 N per direction at 0.5 MPa, the 50 mm bore sits mid-range: step down to the 40 mm ACED (571.8 N) for lighter clamps, or up to the 63 mm (1458.1 N) for heavier press-fit work. The 70 mm stroke is well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a catalogue item. If the machine must hold position when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check valve - the bare cylinder will drift. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and the female M10x1.5 rod thread takes standard I or Y knuckles. Remember the -S code if CMSE / DMSE sensing is planned.
Quick checklist
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so force is identical both ways: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa (rod-side area on both strokes). At the 1.0 MPa maximum that equals about 179.7 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, on air filtered to 40 um, at 30-500 mm/s and -20 to +70 C.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder - the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder - with a hard-anodized aluminium body and a fixed TPU bumper at each end that only decelerates the piston at stroke ends. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets mount on the standard face; the rod thread is female M10x1.5 and the port is 1/8" PT. This code has no magnet, so no switch can be read - order the optional -S version to enable CMSE / DMSE switches.
