The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X25S is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 25mm 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.
The TACE100X25S is a double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact cylinder: a 100 mm bore pushing 3927 N (pull 3769.9 N) at 0.5 MPa through a short 25 mm stroke. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a heavy press plate or gripper stays square with no external guide. At 0.7 MPa the push rises to 5497.8 N, with a theoretical ceiling of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this force class fits inside tight welding jigs and press gantries. Because this model carries the -S magnet, CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted directly on the body slots. Plan on roughly 2356 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, and expect it to lift about 200 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy.

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.

| 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.

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 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa presses bushings into aluminium housings on a 25 mm stroke, while the twin-guide yoke keeps the punch square over the part.
Clamps heavy steel fixture arms in a robotic weld cell; the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder inside crowded jigs.
Pushes cartons off a conveyor stop with 2356 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa; the -S magnet feeds CMSE switches for end-of-stroke confirmation to the PLC.
Step down to the 80 mm bore (2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa) if your load is under about 250 kgf; the 100 mm bore is the largest in the range, so nothing sits above it. Note the piston drifts if air is lost - it never holds or brakes a load - so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a suspended weight. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, and this -S version already includes the magnet for CMSE / DMSE switch mounting. Air must be filtered to 40 um; speed range is 30-500 mm/s.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3769.9 N; at 0.7 MPa the push reaches 5497.8 N (pull 5277.9 N). The theoretical maximum is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s. For real work, plan on about 2356 N - roughly 240 kgf - of usable push at 0.5 MPa.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends. The S in TACE100X25S means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount in the body slots; models ordered without -S carry no magnet. Rod thread is female M12x1.75, the port is 1/4" PT, and mounting choices are FB, CA, CB, CR and FTC.
