Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X30
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X30 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 30mm 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 TACE100X30
A double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder, the TACE100X30 pairs a 100 mm bore with a 30 mm stroke in an ISO 21287 short body that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3769.9 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 5497.8 N. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a heavy plate or gripper stays square without an external guide. In practice, plan for about 2356 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 200 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a 20 mm S45C hard-chrome-plated rod ending in a female M12x1.75 thread, fed through 1/4" PT ports. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the two-way piston seal stores grease for long service intervals. The magnet is the optional -S code: order TACE100X30S to enable CMSE / DMSE switches, otherwise no magnet is fitted. 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, temperature -20 to +70 C.

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 TACE100X30 Is Used
Bearing press into gearbox housings
The 30 mm stroke suits pressing ball bearings into cast aluminium gearbox housings on a small automated press; 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa covers typical interference fits without a hydraulic unit.
EV battery module transfer
On an EV assembly line, the cylinder lifts about 200 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin, while the twin-guide yoke keeps the module pick-up plate square over short 30 mm lower strokes.
Heat-sink fin crimping station
An electronics line crimping aluminium heat-sink fins to power modules uses the short body inside a tight guard; the guide rods carry the side load of an offset crimp die.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X30 the Right Cylinder?
For jobs beyond the 2513.3 N push of a bore 80 at 0.5 MPa, the 100 mm bore delivers 3927 N - the largest in the ACE range, so there is no step up within it. The 30 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, making it a catalog item rather than a made-to-order build. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. Mount via FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC, and order the -S code if CMSE / DMSE switching is planned.
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 TACE100X30 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3769.9 N. At 0.7 MPa push reaches 5497.8 N with pull at 5277.9 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 800.9 kgf. For real work, figure about 2356 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, roughly a 200 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits tight guards and gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. The optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; without it no magnet is fitted. Port is 1/4" PT and the rod ends in a female M12x1.75 thread.
