Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X160SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X160SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 160mm 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.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X160SB
This is a double acting AirTAC ACED80X160SB, an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a piston rod leaving BOTH covers. Because each stroke works on the rod-side area, output is identical either way: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, with a 480.5 kgf ceiling at 1.0 MPa. The 80 mm bore drives a 20 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod through a 160 mm stroke at 30-500 mm/s, on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into press fixtures and gantries where a full-length body cannot. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag while the front rod does the work. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, and since this model carries the S code the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be mounted anywhere along the body slots.

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 (Ø80mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2356 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3299 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 481 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 ACED80X160SB Is Used
Two-sided press fixture
The 2356.2 N thrust available in both directions lets one ACED80X160SB clamp a steel bracket from the front while the rear rod ejects the finished part, halving the station footprint.
Position-verified weld gantry
The fitted -S magnet plus CMSE or DMSE switches report both end positions of the 160 mm travel, and the rear rod can drive a separate flag plate for a second sensing point.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X160SB the Right Cylinder?
At 80 mm bore you sit between the 63 mm size (1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 100 mm size (3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa), so pick this model when a 63 mm unit is under-rated but 100 mm is oversized for the fixture. The 160 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a catalogue item. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. Mounting bolts straight to the ISO 21287 face: FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets, with I and Y rod knuckles on the male-threaded (B code) rod end. Ports are 1/8" PT on both covers.
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 ACED80X160SB FAQ
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both strokes work on the rod-side area of the 80 mm bore, so force is equal either way: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, peaking at 480.5 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, and the 160 mm stroke sits within the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body, threaded aluminium covers, an S45C hard-chrome-plated 20 mm rod and a fixed TPU bumper at each end that only decelerates the piston at stroke ends. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots for end-of-stroke or mid-stroke detection. Mounting uses FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets on the ISO 21287 face, and the rod end is male threaded (B code) with 1/8" PT ports.
