About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED63X20S
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED63X20S runs a 63 mm bore with a 20 mm stroke and a 16 mm piston rod that exits BOTH covers. Because both strokes work on the rod-side area, output is identical in each direction: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa, with a peak of 297.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod end doubles as a mount for a sensor flag or a symmetric fixture.
In practice, plan on roughly 875 N (about 89 kg of push) as the usable working force at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting around 74 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight gantries and guarding. A hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod, fixed TPU bumpers at both ends and the fitted -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches round out the package.

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 ACED63X20S Is Used
Clamping on a CNC fixture
The 1458.1 N symmetric clamp force holds a machined housing from both sides of the jig, and the 20 mm stroke clears chip trays in a tight fixture plate.
Pusher on a bottling line
Equal force in both directions lets one cylinder divert and return cartons at the same rating, while the rear rod carries a flag for a CMSE switch to confirm position.
Press-fit of bushings
About 74 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin suits seating small bushings in automotive sub-assemblies, with the TPU bumper absorbing the end-of-stroke shock.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED63X20S the Right Cylinder?
At 63 mm bore this model delivers 1458.1 N per direction at 0.5 MPa. Step down to a 50 mm bore (881.2 N) if the load is lighter, or move to 80 mm (2356.2 N) for heavier tooling. The 20 mm stroke sits well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalogue item with no made-to-order surcharge. Ports are 1/8" on both covers, the rod end carries a female M10x1.5 thread, and FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder will drift if air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check where a load must stay put.
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 ACED63X20S FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design means both strokes use the rod-side area, so output is equal each way: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa, 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa, and up to 297.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end.
The S in the code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots. The 1/8" ports, female M10x1.5 rod thread and ISO 21287 mounting face accept FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets, and the short body saves about 50% of the length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
