Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE20X35S
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE20X35S is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 35mm 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 TACE20X35S
A short-body ISO 21287 unit built for tight jigs, the TACE20X35S is double acting and non-rotating: twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or clamping plate stays square without an external guide. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 157.1 N and pulls 117.8 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 219.9 N push and 164.9 N pull, with a theoretical 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated 10 mm rod saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into confined guarding and gantries. In practice plan for roughly 94 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. This -S model carries the magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots. Air filtered to 40 um, 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, TPU bumper at both ends.

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 (Ø20mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 157 N | 118 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 220 N | 165 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 32 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 TACE20X35S Is Used
Small-part pick and place
On an electronics assembly cell, the 35 mm stroke lifts about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin - enough for aluminium connector housings - while the twin-guide yoke keeps the gripper square over the vacuum cups.
Blister pack reject pusher
A 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa kicks off-spec blister packs off a pharma packaging conveyor in 35 mm, and the short body fits inside the existing guard where a longer cylinder cannot.
PCB test fixture clamp
Clamping a circuit board into a test nest needs a square, non-rotating press: the twin guide rods carry the side load and the fitted magnet feeds a DMSE switch to confirm clamped position before the test starts.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE20X35S the Right Cylinder?
For this 35 mm stroke, bore 16 delivers 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa and bore 25 delivers 245.4 N, so the 20 mm bore at 157.1 N sits between them - step up only if part mass or friction exceeds the roughly 94 N usable figure. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). The piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a held position matters. FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC mountings suit this compact body, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches for end-of-stroke signalling.
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 TACE20X35S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 157.1 N and pulls 117.8 N; at 0.7 MPa push is 219.9 N and pull 164.9 N; the theoretical maximum is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 10 mm hard-chrome rod carries side load through the twin-guide yoke, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s across 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
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 end-of-stroke shock. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. Because this is the -S version, the magnet is fitted and CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots.
