About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X30
The ACED80X30 is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format: an 80 mm bore with a 30 mm stroke and a 20 mm piston rod leaving both covers, so thrust is identical on the extend and retract strokes. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 2356.2 N in either direction, rising to 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, with a peak of 480.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries M5-free 1/4" ports and a female M12x1.75 rod thread.
In practice that 2356.2 N means the rod can be trusted with roughly 1414 N of continuous work (about 60% of rating), and on a vertical axis it lifts a part of about 120 kg with a 2:1 margin. The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, while the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, the body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches when ordered.

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 ACED80X30 Is Used
Die spotting on a stamping press
The 80 mm bore holds a die shut with 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa on both strokes, and the 30 mm stroke suits quick spot-and-release cycles between press setups.
Symmetric workpiece clamping
A rod on each cover lets one cylinder clamp from both sides of a machining fixture, with the female M12x1.75 threads taking standard tooling studs.
Vertical lift-and-lower gantry
With about 120 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the through-rod keeps the carrier from rotating while the fixed TPU bumpers absorb the ends of each 30 mm move.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X30 the Right Cylinder?
Choose the ACED80X30 when a press or clamp station needs equal force on both strokes: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, identical extend and retract. Step down to the ACED63X30 (1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa) for lighter tooling, or up to the ACED100X30 (3769.9 N) where heavier dies are involved. The 30 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalogue item, not a special. 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, FTC brackets and I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and the -S code adds the magnet for CMSE / DMSE sensing.
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 ACED80X30 FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design exposes the rod-side area on both strokes, so output is equal either way: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa, 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 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 -20 to +70 C temperature.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow fixtures and guarded cells. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code - without it no magnet is fitted and no switch can be read; with -S, CMSE or DMSE switches ride the body slots. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC mounting plus I/Y rod knuckles attach directly.
