The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X25S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 25mm stroke, 1/4" 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, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED80X25S pushes and pulls with the same 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa (3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa) because a rod exits both covers and each stroke works on the rod-side area. The 80 mm bore carries a 20 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod, and the short hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight gantries and machine frames.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, while the rear rod can carry a sensor flag on packaging or assembly machinery. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and because the -S magnet is fitted you can bolt CMSE or DMSE switches straight onto the body slots. At 0.5 MPa the usable work force is roughly 1414 N (about 60% of rating), which lifts around 72 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin - enough to match real part weights before you order.

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 | 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).
| ACED | ISO 21287 compact cylinder (double-rod). |
|---|---|
| 80 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×25 | 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 gives equal 2356.2 N force on extend and retract, so a pick-and-place arm on an electronics assembly line cycles at the same speed and power in both directions between 30 and 500 mm/s.
With the -S magnet fitted, CMSE or DMSE switches read end-of-stroke on a 25 mm short-stake staking or riveting station where the compact body must fit inside a machine guard.
The rear rod of the double-rod design carries a counterweight or sensor flag on a lift column, while the 80 mm bore handles about 72 kg of vertical load with a 2:1 margin at 0.5 MPa.
Size both ways: if 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa is more than your job needs, the ACED63 delivers 1458.1 N at the same pressure; if you need more, step up to the ACED100 for 3769.9 N. Both neighbors share the same compact ISO 21287 footprint family, so re-sizing rarely forces a fixture redesign.
This model ships with the optional -S magnet already fitted, so CMSE / DMSE switches work out of the box. Mounting: FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the ISO 21287 face. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. Air supply: 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), filtered to 40 um; speed range 30-500 mm/s.
Quick checklist
Yes - because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area. At 0.5 MPa you get 2356.2 N in either direction, at 0.7 MPa you get 3298.7 N both ways, and the maximum rating at 1.0 MPa is 480.5 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and the speed range is 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it fits tight guards and gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots; without the -S code there is no magnet. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot, FTC and I/Y rod knuckles.
