The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED63X175SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 175mm 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 ACED63X175SB pushes a 16 mm hard-chrome rod out of BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on every stroke: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa, whichever way the piston moves. The 63 mm bore delivers up to 297.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa, and the through-rod resists rotation and side load while the free back-end rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tool. Male rod thread (B code) and PT ports on this variant.
The short hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight gantries and guarding where a full-length bore-63 cylinder simply will not fit. This S-coded unit carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, and as a planning figure the rod-side thrust supports roughly 875 N of real work at 0.5 MPa - about 74 kg lifted vertically 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).

| ×175 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSE / DMSE sensors (omit for no magnet). |

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 through-rod gives equal 1458.1 N thrust on extend and retract, so a pallet shuttle between two CNC stations accelerates the same both ways at 30-500 mm/s.
With about 74 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the back-end rod can counter-guide a fixture plate rising inside a compact machine frame.
A 175 mm stroke clears a carton lane in one shot, and the fitted -S magnet with a DMSE switch confirms home position before the next case indexes.
At 1458.1 N per direction, bore 63 sits between bore 50 (881.2 N at 0.5 MPa) and bore 80 (2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa), so choose 63 when 50 is marginal and 80 is oversized for the fixture. The 175 mm stroke is well inside the 250 mm standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report position without extra tooling.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double-rod design means both strokes use the rod-side area, so force is equal either way: 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), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 1/8" port size applies because this is a 63 mm bore.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets bolt straight to its face. The S in ACED63X175SB means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches sense position in the body slots; models ordered without -S carry no magnet. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy.
