The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X60SB 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 ACED80X60SB pushes a 20 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so the 80 mm bore delivers the same 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa (3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke - no push/pull imbalance to design around. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to external tooling, and the back-end rod gives you a free, symmetric mounting point or a sensor-flag carrier.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight presses, lifters and gantries where a full-length body will not fit. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, and because the S code is in this model, the magnet is already fitted - just add CMSE or DMSE switches for end-position sensing. Running 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s, it lifts about 120 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin (240 kgf theoretical at 0.5 MPa).

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).

| ×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.
The through-rod raises a scissor link from both sides with equal 2356.2 N force at 0.5 MPa, and the 60 mm stroke matches a standard pallet-transfer height change.
A male-threaded rod on each end lets a machining cell clamp an aluminium housing from two directions at once with identical force, halving cycle time.
With the fitted magnet and CMSE switches on both the front and rear rod ends, an assembly gantry confirms extend and retract electronically in a 60 mm window.
At 2356.2 N per side at 0.5 MPa, this 80 mm bore suits clamping and lifting in the 140 kgf working class; step down to the 63 mm bore (1458.1 N) for lighter tooling or up to the 100 mm bore (3769.9 N) for heavier dies. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check where a load must stay put. FA/FB flanges, LB feet, CA/CB clevises and I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches out of the box.
Quick checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, output is equal in both directions: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa on every stroke, with a peak of 480.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s over 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air pressure, proof tested to 1.5 MPa (215 psi), from -20 to +70 C.
The ISO 21287 short-body design saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow machine frames. The fixed TPU bumpers at each end absorb end-of-stroke shock, and since this unit carries the -S code the magnet is already installed - mount CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches directly on the body slots.
