Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X10
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X10 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 10mm 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. Twin guide rods keep the tooling from rotating.

About the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X10
Packing 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa into a 10 mm stroke, the AirTAC TACE100X10 is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder with a 100 mm bore. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a heavy gripper plate stays square without an external guide. The 20 mm S45C rod is hard-chrome plated and carries a female M12x1.75 thread, and the air ports are 1/4" PT. At 0.7 MPa the same bore reaches 5497.8 N push and 5277.9 N pull, with a theoretical peak of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so this big-bore thruster fits tight press frames and fixture plates where a full-length cylinder will not. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the roller-burnished, hard-anodized aluminium body resists wear. For position feedback order the optional -S magnet, which enables CMSE / DMSE switches - without -S there is no magnet. In practice, plan for about 2360 N (roughly 240 kgf) of real work at 0.5 MPa, and expect about 400 kg of vertical lift at the rod - halve that to 200 kg for 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; guide rods: stainless steel (Ø12-40) / S45C (larger). 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 (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3770 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | 5278 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin. Twin guide rods stop the tooling rotating.

Where the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X10 Is Used
Heavy fixture clamping on a CNC line
A 10 mm throw is enough to clamp a cast-iron gearbox housing against hardened stops; at 3927 N push the TACE100X10 holds the part square while the cutter works, and the twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp pad from twisting under side load.
Short-stroke staking and press-fit station
Pressing a bushing into an aluminium pump housing needs force, not travel - the 100 mm bore delivers 5497.8 N at 0.7 MPa over just 10 mm, and the compact body drops into a bench-top press frame where a longer cylinder cannot fit.
Locking pin on a heavy weld-cell gate
A 10 mm shot drives an oversized locking pin into a robot-cell gate latch; the non-rotating twin guide rods keep the pin aligned with the latch bore, and a -S magnet with a DMSE switch confirms the locked position to the cell PLC.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X10 the Right Cylinder?
At 100 mm bore this is the top of the ACE range; the next size down, the 80 mm bore, pushes 2513.3 N at 0.5 MPa - step down only if your working load sits under roughly 1500 N. Note that the piston drifts when air is lost, so a load that must stay put calls for a rod lock or a pilot check valve in the circuit. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, and the optional -S magnet pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches when end-of-stroke sensing is needed. The 10 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a catalogue item.
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 TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X10 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the 100 mm bore pushes 3927 N and pulls 3769.9 N. At 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 5497.8 N push and 5277.9 N pull. The theoretical maximum is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For sizing, treat about 2360 N at 0.5 MPa as the usable working force, which corresponds to lifting roughly 200 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
The ISO 21287 body is hard-anodized aluminium with an S45C hard-chrome rod, a fixed TPU bumper at both ends, and mounting options FB, CA, CB, CR and FTC. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code - order it and CMSE / DMSE switches mount in the body slots; without -S there is no magnet. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s, with air filtered to 40 um.
