The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X30SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 30mm 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 ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACED80X30SB delivers 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa in each direction, because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The 80 mm bore pushes 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa either way, so clamping and pressing forces stay identical on the extend and return stroke. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight into your knuckle or fixture.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome-plated 20 mm rod runs 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um, at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters inside presses and weld fixtures. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 1414 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, enough to lift about 72 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The through-rod also resists rotation and side load, and the free back-end rod can carry a sensor flag.

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).

|---|---|
| 80 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×30 | 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 symmetric 2356.2 N hold in both directions clamps a steel bracket from either side of a robotic weld cell, and the 30 mm stroke clears part loading quickly.
At 0.7 MPa the 3298.7 N through-rod presses bearings into housings on an assembly line, with the fixed TPU bumper absorbing the return impact at both ends.
With the -S magnet already fitted, CMSE switches confirm extend and retract on a gantry slide, while the rear rod drives a duplicate flag for the PLC.
Size between neighbors: a 63 mm bore gives 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa, while a 100 mm bore reaches 3769.9 N, so pick the 80 mm when your clamp or press needs the 2356.2 N class at 30 mm stroke. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. This unit ships with the -S magnet fitted, so CMSE / DMSE switches mount directly on the body slots, and FA/FB flanges, LB feet or FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face.
Quick checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal in both directions: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa on the rod-side area, with a maximum of 480.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 1/4" port depends only on the 80 mm bore.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits tight guards and fixtures. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches slide into the body slots for end-of-stroke detection. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets mount on the standard face, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs stroke-end energy.
