Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X45
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X45 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 45mm 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 TACE100X45
Double acting and non-rotating, the AirTAC TACE100X45 pairs a 100 mm bore with a 45 mm stroke in an ISO 21287 compact body. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3769.9 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 5497.8 N, with a theoretical peak of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a heavy press plate or clamp stays square without an external guide.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters when a 100 mm bore must fit inside a welding fixture or press gantry. For real work, plan on roughly 2356 N (about 240 kgf) of usable push at 0.5 MPa; vertically that is a 400 kgf rating, so halve it and the rod lifts about 200 kg with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke shock at both ends, the S45C hard-chrome rod runs in a hard-anodized aluminium body, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches when ordered.

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 TACE100X45 Is Used
Bush staking on aluminium housings
A 45 mm stroke is enough for staking or clinching bushings into automotive housings, and the 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa does the work without a full-length cylinder in the fixture.
Weld fixture hold-down on a gantry
Twin guide rods on the yoke keep the clamp plate square over steel weldments, so the fixture does not rotate or rack under the 3927 N clamp force.
Heavy stopper gate on a pallet line
The non-rotating twin-guide yoke swings a steel stopper gate square into the pallet path, and the short ISO 21287 body fits between conveyor frames where space is tight.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X45 the Right Cylinder?
If your clamp or press needs more than the 2513.3 N push of a bore 80 unit at 0.5 MPa, step up to this 100 mm bore and its 3927 N push at the same pressure; the 45 mm stroke suits short clinch, stake and hold-down moves. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost, so fit a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, ports are 1/4" PT, the rod carries a female M12x1.75 thread, and adding the -S code brings the magnet that CMSE / DMSE switches need.
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 TACE100X45 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the 100 mm bore pushes 3927 N and pulls 3769.9 N; at 0.7 MPa push is 5497.8 N and pull is 5277.9 N. The theoretical maximum is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed is 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so a 100 mm bore fits shallow fixtures and gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC; ports are 1/4" PT and the rod ends in a female M12x1.75 thread. Position switches need the optional -S magnet, which lets CMSE / DMSE switches read position; without -S there is no magnet.
