The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X90 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 90mm 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 ACED80X90 pushes a 20 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on every stroke: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, equal in both directions because both sides of the piston see the rod-side area. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a roller-burnished bore, the S45C rod is hard-chrome plated, and a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end to soften the stroke ends.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this 80 mm bore fits guarded gantries and press fixtures where a full-length body cannot. In practice, plan on roughly 1414 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, and for vertical duty the rod side lifts about 120 kg with a 2:1 margin. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag; add the optional -S magnet if you want CMSE or DMSE switches, since without -S no magnet is fitted.

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).

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 at 0.5 MPa clamps steel brackets in welding fixtures with equal force on clamp and release, and the 90 mm stroke clears part loading.
With about 120 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin, the double rod guides a small pallet elevator between two stations without a separate guide post.
A rod on each cover lets one cylinder push a sliding conveyor stopper forward and pull it back with identical force, keeping cycle timing symmetric at 30-500 mm/s.
Step down to ACED63X90 (1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa) for lighter clamping, or step up to ACED100X90 (3769.9 N) when the load demands more. Remember this is not a position holder: if air is lost the piston drifts, so specify a rod lock or pilot check for held loads. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the 20 mm rod; order the -S code only if CMSE/DMSE sensing is needed.
Quick checklist
Output is equal in both directions because a rod exits both covers: 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. As a rule of thumb, count on about 1414 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting roughly 120 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and FA/FB flanges, LB feet or FTC brackets bolt straight to its face. The end-of-stroke deceleration comes from a fixed TPU bumper at each cover. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code: only then can CMSE or DMSE switches be mounted in the body slots. This unit has no magnet fitted, and it does not hold position if air is lost - use a rod lock or pilot check for that.
