The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X60B is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 60mm 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 ACED80X60B pushes a 20 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so the 80 mm bore delivers 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa in each direction - both strokes work on the rod-side area, with no push/pull imbalance. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to your tooling on either end, and a fixed TPU bumper at each cover absorbs end-of-stroke shock.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this bore class fits tight press fixtures and gantry clamps. Hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome plated rod, 1/4" ports, speed 30-500 mm/s and 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) operating range. As a working figure, plan on roughly 1414 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, and the rod will lift about 120 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. No magnet is fitted on this version; order the -S code if you later need CMSE / DMSE switch position sensing.

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. |
| ×60 | 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.
1414 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa over a 60 mm stroke suits staking, riveting and light pressing of aluminium housings and bushings in a compact press head.
Equal 2356.2 N thrust on both strokes keeps part push-off symmetric on a packaging line, while the back rod carries a tooling plate or flag without a second cylinder.
The through-rod resists rotation on a vertical Z-axis, and with a 2:1 margin it lifts about 120 kg - enough for fixture pallets and small weldments in machine tending cells.
At 2356.2 N per direction this 80 mm double-rod sits between the 63 mm ACED (1458.1 N) and the 100 mm ACED (3769.9 N) at 0.5 MPa - step down when the load is under 1400 N, step up past 2300 N. The 60 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm standard for bore 80, so it ships as a catalogue item. Remember the through-rod does not hold position if air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check for a suspended load. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and I/Y rod knuckles mount on the ISO 21287 face, and the male rod thread suits directly driven tooling.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double-rod design means both strokes use the rod-side area, so output is equal both ways: 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, and the 60 mm stroke sits inside the 300 mm standard for bore 80.
The B code gives a male thread on both rod ends for direct tooling attachment; without it the rods are female threaded. This version has no magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches cannot be read - order the -S variant of the same cylinder to get the optional -S magnet that enables those switches. Mounting is via FA/FB flanges, LB feet or FTC brackets on the ISO 21287 face, and the fixed TPU bumpers at each end only soften end-of-stroke impact; they never hold or brake a load.
