Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED63X120B
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED63X120B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 120mm 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 ACED63X120B
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED63X120B pushes a 63 mm piston through a 120 mm stroke with a 16 mm rod exiting BOTH covers. Because each side of the piston sees the rod-side area, output force is identical in both directions: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to your tooling, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight press fixtures and gantries. In practice, plan for roughly 875 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which is about 89 kg of vertical thrust with a sensible margin. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with speed from 30-500 mm/s.

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 (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1458 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2041 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 297 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 ACED63X120B Is Used
Press fixture clamping
The 1458.1 N symmetric force clamps aluminium die-cast housings from either side of a machining centre jig, with the male thread taking a custom clamp arm.
Reciprocating transfer beam
A rod at each end lets the 120 mm stroke push and pull a conveyor cross-transfer beam with equal force, no re-orientation needed between stations.
Pallet elevator platen
The through-rod keeps a 60 kg pallet platen level on small side loads, lifting about 74 kg vertically at 0.5 MPa with a 2:1 margin.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED63X120B the Right Cylinder?
At 63 mm bore this sits between the 50 mm size (881.2 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 80 mm size (2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa); pick down for lighter clamping, up for heavier press work. The 120 mm stroke is well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a catalogue item. Remember 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 and CA clevis brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches if you need position feedback.
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 ACED63X120B FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal in both directions: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 297.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed range 30-500 mm/s.
This model has no magnet fitted; order the -S code to get the optional magnet that works with CMSE or DMSE switches. The ISO 21287 body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with FA/FB flange and LB foot brackets available, a fixed TPU bumper at each stroke end, and a 1/8" PT air port.
