The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X45 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 45mm 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 ACED80X45 pushes a 20 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so the 80 mm bore delivers 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction - both strokes work on the rod-side area. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight press fixtures and guarded stations where a full-length body will not fit.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag on a reciprocating table. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, the hard-anodized aluminium body carries 1/4" ports, and the S45C hard-chrome rod runs at 30-500 mm/s. Plan on roughly 1414 N (about 144 kg) of real work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating, or about 120 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin. Position is not held when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load.

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. |
| ×45 | 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 2356.2 N both-ways force clamps steel housings in a machining jig, and the 45 mm stroke clears part loading in seconds.
A rod on each cover balances the slide and resists rotation, moving pallets 45 mm between two stations at up to 500 mm/s.
The back rod drives a divert flag while the front rod pushes cartons off a conveyor lane, one cylinder doing both jobs.
At 2356.2 N per direction this bore sits between the 63 mm (1458.1 N) and 100 mm (3769.9 N) frames - step down if your load is under 900 N of working force, step up for heavy clamping over 1500 N. The 45 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm standard range for bore 80. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the ISO 21287 face; the female M12x1.75 rod thread takes standard rod accessories. If you need CMSE or DMSE switches, order the -S code - without it no magnet is fitted and no sensor can be mounted.
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, 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, air filtered to 40 um, temperature -20 to +70 C.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end and FA/FB, LB or FTC mounting on the standard face. Sensing requires the optional -S magnet at order time; only then can CMSE or DMSE switches be clipped to the body.
