The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED63X30SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 30mm 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 ACED63X30SB pushes a 63 mm bore through a 30 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers. Because each side works on the rod-side area, output is identical in either direction: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa. The male rod thread (B code) and PT ports suit direct screw-on tooling. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight gantries and fixtures.
The through-rod resists rotation and modest side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tool. This S-code model 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.

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. |
| ×30 | 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 (double rod, 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 equal 1458.1 N output in both directions lets one ACED63X30SB load and eject aluminium die-cast housings on a machining cell fixture without recalibrating for stroke direction.
A rod on each cover drives a pick-and-place beam between two tool plates, with the rear rod doubling as a mount for a CMSE switch flag to confirm home position.
At 1458.1 N per direction, the 63 mm bore sits between the 50 mm (881.2 N at 0.5 MPa) and 80 mm (2356.2 N) classes - step down for lighter clamping, up for heavy press-fit work. 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 flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the 30 mm stroke is well inside the 250 mm standard range for this bore.
Quick checklist
It is a double-rod, double-acting cylinder, so force is equal both ways: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa in each direction, 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 port is 1/8" (PT).
The ISO 21287 short body cuts mounting length by roughly half compared with an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and the hard-anodized aluminium body carries a hard-chrome S45C rod with fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. Because this is the S version, the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling.
