The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED63X150SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 150mm 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 ACED63X150SB pushes a 16 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on the extend and retract strokes: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction. The male rod thread (B code) suits external rod accessories, and the fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with speeds of 30-500 mm/s.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with roller-burnished bore and S45C hard-chrome plated rod shrinks the mounting length by roughly 50% versus an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight gantries and guarding. This -S variant carries the magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be clipped onto the body for end-of-stroke signalling. As a working rule, plan on about 875 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which is roughly 44 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.

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 | 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).

|---|---|
| 63 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×150 | 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.
Equal 1458.1 N force on both strokes lets a machining cell clamp and eject with one cylinder, the male rod thread taking a pressure foot on each end.
The through-rod resists rotation on a vertical pick-and-place slide lifting about 44 kg with margin, while the rear rod carries a position flag.
On a packaging line, identical push and pull at 0.5 MPa moves cartons across a conveyor in either direction at up to 500 mm/s.
At 63 mm bore this unit delivers 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa; step down to the 50 mm bore (881.2 N) for lighter clamping or up to the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N) when the load grows. The 150 mm stroke sits inside the 250 mm standard limit for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed. Choose FA/FB flange or LB foot brackets on the ISO 21287 face, and remember the through-rod does not hold position if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double-rod design exposes the rod-side area on both strokes, so force is equal extending and retracting: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa, 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 297.4 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 150 mm stroke is within the 250 mm standard stroke for the 63 mm bore.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a hard-anodized aluminium barrel, S45C hard-chrome rod and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. As an -S model it carries the optional magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches mount directly on the body slots; FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the standard face.
