The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED63X45SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 45mm 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 ACED63X45SB pushes a 63 mm bore through a 45 mm stroke with a piston rod leaving BOTH covers. Because each side sees 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, with a peak of 297.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to external tooling, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches for end-position sensing.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod runs at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and 30-500 mm/s, with fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 875 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 89 kg vertically - or about 74 kg 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).
| ACED | ISO 21287 compact cylinder (double-rod). |
|---|---|
| 63 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×45 | 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 drives a pallet shuttle from either cover with equal 1458.1 N thrust, and the rear rod carries a position flag past a DMSE switch.
Male rod thread grips a swing clamp arm while the back rod steadies the jig; the 45 mm stroke suits short clamp-and-release cycles on a machining line.
Symmetric rods on both ends balance a pivoting assembly on a packaging machine, with about 74 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin.
At 1458.1 N per direction, this bore sits between the 50 mm frame (881.2 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 80 mm frame (2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa), so pick down when the load is light and up when it is not. The 45 mm stroke is well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 63, so it ships as a catalogue item. 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 plus I/Y rod knuckles mount on the ISO 21287 face, and the fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches clip onto the body slots.
Quick checklist
Force is equal both ways because a rod exits both covers and both strokes use the rod-side area: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa, 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 297.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um.
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 to the standard face. The S code means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount in the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy but does not hold a load - use a rod lock or pilot check for that.
