The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE100X60S is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 60mm 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.
A double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the TACE100X60S pairs a 100 mm bore with a 60 mm stroke and twin guide rods on a yoke that stop the tooling rotating while carrying side load. 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 maximum of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium body has a roller-burnished bore for wear resistance, and the S45C piston rod is hard-chrome plated with a female M12x1.75 thread.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so this 100 mm bore fits tight gantries, guards and press heads where a full-length body will not. Plan for roughly 2356 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 200 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The -S magnet this model carries accepts CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches in the body slots for end-of-stroke sensing, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs stroke-end energy. Air is filtered to 40 um, pressure runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and speed 30-500 mm/s.

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.

|---|---|---|
| 0.5 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.

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.
Clamps a cast-iron housing against hard stops on a machining line; the 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa holds the part square through roughing cuts while the twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp plate from twisting.
The 60 mm stroke suits short press work, and 5497.8 N of push at 0.7 MPa seats bronze bushings into pump housings on an assembly cell without a separate press frame.
Raises and lowers a heavy clamp gate on an automotive welding fixture; with about 200 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin, the 100 mm bore handles the gate weight with room to spare.
At 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa this 100 mm bore is the largest in the TACE range; if the load is lighter, the 80 mm bore delivers 2513.3 N under the same pressure. Air pressure alone holds the piston, so a suspended load will drift if supply is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a held position matters. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, and the fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report stroke end without extra hardware.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it 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. For real work, plan on 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, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs stroke-end energy. Mounting options include FB flange and CA/CB clevis. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches clamp into the body slots; without the -S code there is no magnet.
