The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED63X250B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 250mm 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 with a rod leaving both covers, the ACED63X250B delivers the same 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa in either direction because both strokes work on the rod-side area of the 63 mm bore. The through-rod fights rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mounting face, while the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag on gantry or clamp tooling. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures a full-length body cannot reach.
At 0.7 MPa the same bore pushes and pulls 2041.3 N, and the ceiling at 1.0 MPa is 297.4 kgf. In practice, plan on roughly 875 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which is about 89 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s, a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, and the S45C hard-chrome rod runs in a roller-burnished, hard-anodized bore for long seal life.

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. |
| ×250 | 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 through-rod carries a pusher pad on the front rod and a position flag on the rear rod, moving cartons between lanes at up to 500 mm/s with equal 1458.1 N force in both travel directions.
On CNC tending gantries, the symmetric double-rod mount resists the side load of ejecting machined housings, and the short ISO 21287 body fits inside the Z-slide envelope.
Warehouse safety gates and pallet stops use the 250 mm stroke and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa to swing or lift barriers, with the rear rod driving a limit-switch flag when the -S magnet is ordered.
If 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa is more than the job needs, the 50 mm double-rod version gives 881.2 N; if you need more, step up to the 80 mm bore at 2356.2 N. This model has a male rod thread (B code) and a PT port thread; the 250 mm stroke is the maximum standard stroke for the 63 mm bore, so no made-to-order length is involved. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - for a held load, pair it with a rod lock or pilot check. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches if position feedback is needed.
Quick checklist
Yes - because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area of the 63 mm bore. Force is 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa, identical push and pull, 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 port is 1/8" PT with a male rod thread on this B-coded model.
The hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles mount on the standard ISO 21287 face. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code - this model has no magnet fitted, so order ACED63X250BS to use CMSE / DMSE switches.
