Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X80
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X80 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 80mm 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.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X80
The ACED80X80 is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format. A 20 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod exits BOTH covers, so the 80 mm bore delivers an identical 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa (3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke - push and pull are the same because both sides work on the rod-side area. The through-rod also resists rotation and side load, and the free back-end rod is a handy place to carry a sensor flag.
The hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so this 80 mm bore fits deep into presses, weld fixtures and gantries where a full-length body cannot reach. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 1414 N (about 144 kg) of real work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating, or about 120 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø80mm)
| 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).

Where the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X80 Is Used
Press-fit and staking stations
The symmetric 2356.2 N output at 0.5 MPa presses bushings or bearings into housings from either side, and the 80 mm stroke suits shallow press depths on automotive sub-assembly benches.
Reciprocating conveyor pushers
Equal force both directions makes the ACED80X80 ideal for push-pull transfer arms that index cartons across packaging lines, with the TPU bumpers absorbing each end-of-stroke stop at up to 500 mm/s.
Weld fixture clamping gantries
The short ISO 21287 body tucks inside tight weld-cell framing, while the back-end rod carries a flag for CMSE / DMSE switches when the optional -S magnet is ordered.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X80 the Right Cylinder?
At 2356.2 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 80 mm bore sits between the 63 mm (1458.1 N) and 100 mm (3769.9 N) sizes - step down for lighter clamping, up when you need 3.7 kN. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. FA/FB flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and the optional -S magnet (this model has none fitted) enables CMSE / DMSE switches. Female M12x1.75 rod thread, 1/4" PT ports.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short stroke fits the compact body
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S if you need the magnet for sensors
- ✓ Rod type (female / male B) & mount (FA/LB/CA)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Compact body: keep the stroke short and avoid side load on the rod.
- check Do not dismantle the threaded front/back covers.
- check Keep speed within the rated range; the TPU bumper absorbs stroke-end energy.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X80 FAQ
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 every stroke, peaking at 480.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, air filtered to 40 um, speed 30-500 mm/s and -20 to +70 C.
The ACED80X80 uses the ISO 21287 short-body format, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. FA/FB flanges, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I/Y rod knuckles mount on the standard face, the fixed TPU bumpers handle end-of-stroke energy, and the optional -S magnet allows CMSE / DMSE switch sensing (no magnet is fitted without it).
