The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X300SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 300mm 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 compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED80X300SB drives a 20 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on the extend and retract strokes - 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa either way. The male-threaded rod ends (B code) accept standard rod knuckles, and the through-rod resists rotation and side load while the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. Fixed TPU bumpers at each end absorb end-of-stroke shock, and travel runs 30-500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so this 300 mm stroke unit fits gantries and sliding guards that cannot house a full-length body. The hard-anodized aluminium bore with an S45C hard-chrome rod stands up to continuous cycling. At 0.5 MPa, plan on roughly 1414 N (about 144 kg of push) for real work, which means this bore lifts about 120 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report end positions directly on the body.

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. |
| ×300 | 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 pushes and pulls the agitator rack with identical 2356.2 N force in each direction, so mix speed stays constant on both strokes.
Symmetric rod-side force grips cartons evenly from both sides, and the 300 mm stroke clears the full pallet height inside a tight guard.
The fitted magnet plus CMSE / DMSE switches confirms full advance and retract of the fixture slide, while the rear rod drives a second flag for mid-stroke verification.
Size down to ACED63X300 (1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa) if the load is lighter, or step up to ACED100X300 (3769.9 N) for heavier tooling - both share the same compact footprint logic. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the 300 mm stroke must hold a suspended load. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and the magnet is already fitted on this -S version for CMSE / DMSE switching.
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 each direction; at 0.7 MPa, 3298.7 N either way. The maximum rating is 480.5 kgf (about 4713 N) at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
The ISO 21287 short body cuts mounting length by roughly half compared with an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so the 300 mm stroke fits shallow machines. Fixed TPU bumpers at both rod ends absorb end-of-stroke impact; they are not adjustable. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC mounts bolt to the standard face, and the -S magnet on this model accepts CMSE / DMSE switches.
