Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE16X75
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE16X75 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 75mm stroke, M5×0.8 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 TACE16X75
Double acting and non-rotating, the TACE16X75 is a genuine AirTAC ISO 21287 compact cylinder: 16 mm bore, 75 mm stroke, an 8 mm S45C rod with hard-chrome plating and an M5x0.8 air port. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a small gripper or clamp plate stays square without an external guide. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 75.4 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 140.7 N push and 105.6 N pull, with a theoretical maximum of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs, guards and gantries where a full-length cylinder will not. Plan for about 60 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, roughly 0.6 of the push force, which lifts about 5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy at both ends, and the optional -S magnet lets CMSE or DMSE switches report position - without the -S code no magnet is fitted.

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 (Ø16mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 101 N | 75 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 141 N | 106 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 21 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 TACE16X75 Is Used
Connector press-fit on PCB assemblies
The twin-guide yoke keeps a small press head square over a 75 mm stroke while 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa seats connectors without an external guide.
Sample slide clamp in compact lab fixtures
The short ISO 21287 body fits inside tight instrument guards, and the fixed TPU bumper quiets each end of the 75 mm travel.
Push-off of finished vials on a packaging line
About 60 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa nudges lightweight products off a conveyor, with the optional -S magnet feeding a DMSE switch for cycle counting.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE16X75 the Right Cylinder?
At 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa this 16 mm bore suits light clamping and small-part handling; step down to the 12 mm bore (56.5 N push) for lighter loads or up to the 20 mm bore (157.1 N push) when you need more margin. The 75 mm stroke is the maximum standard stroke for this bore, so longer travels become made-to-order items. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, and the female M4x0.7 rod thread takes standard tooling directly. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve - and order the optional -S magnet if CMSE / DMSE position switches are 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 TACE16X75 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the 16 mm bore pushes 100.5 N and pulls 75.4 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 140.7 N and pulls 105.6 N. The theoretical maximum is 20.5 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, air filtered to 40 um, and speed from 30-500 mm/s. In practice plan on about 60 N of real work, which lifts roughly 5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow jigs and gantries. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the load rotating and carry side load, and a fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy at both ends. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches - without the -S code no magnet is fitted.
