The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X50B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 50mm 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 ACED80X50B pushes a 20 mm hard-chrome rod out of BOTH covers, so the 80 mm bore delivers an identical 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa on every stroke - no push/pull imbalance to design around. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tool. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, media air filtered to 40 um.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this size fits tight press fixtures and gantry clamps. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a roller-burnished bore, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. At 0.5 MPa the usable push is roughly 1414 N, which lifts about 120 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin - enough for heavy die carts or pallet clamps. Rod end is male thread (B code) with PT ports; the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches.

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).

| ×50 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSE / DMSE sensors (omit for no magnet). |

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 force in both directions suits a press head that must retract a heavy die holder as firmly as it advances, and the 50 mm stroke matches typical insert-press travel.
With about 120 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the double rod holds a clamp bar level on both sides of a pallet while the through-rod resists the twisting of off-center loads.
A rear rod can carry a flag for the optional -S magnet and CMSE / DMSE switches, so the gate position is confirmed while the 30-500 mm/s speed range keeps divert cycles fast but controlled.
At 2356.2 N per direction this 80 mm bore sits between a 63 mm ACED (1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa) and a 100 mm ACED (3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa) - step down if your clamp force is under 1400 N, step up above 2300 N. Remember the piston will drift if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held vertical load. Foot (LB), flange (FA/FB) and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face; order the -S code if you need CMSE / DMSE position sensing, and note the 50 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm standard range for bore 80.
Quick checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal both ways (rod-side area on every stroke): 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 pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, and the 1/4" PT ports depend on the 80 mm bore.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder - the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder - with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome plated 20 mm rods and a fixed TPU bumper at each end. Mounting brackets (FA/FB flange, LB foot, FTC) bolt to the standard face. The magnet is the optional -S code: order ACED80X50BSB if you want CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S no magnet is fitted.
