The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE20X75 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm 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.
The AirTAC TACE20X75 is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 20 mm bore with a 75 mm stroke in a hard-anodized aluminium body that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits tight jigs, guards and gantries. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, keeping a gripper or plate 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 and 164.9 N.
Plan on roughly 94 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 of the rated force), which lifts about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin - enough to match a real part weight before you order. A fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the 10 mm rod carries a female M6x1.0 thread. The magnet is optional: only the -S code enables CMSE / DMSE switches. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s, with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.

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.

| 0.7 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.

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.
On an SMT assembly line, the twin-guide yoke keeps a vacuum plate square over 75 mm of travel while the 157.1 N push seats small PCB carriers into test nests.
A bench fixture pressing M12 connectors into plastic housings uses the 94 N usable push at 0.5 MPa, with the short ISO 21287 body fitting inside a guarding frame.
A packaging line gate extends and retracts over 75 mm at up to 500 mm/s, and the twin guide rods stop the gate plate twisting under side load.
For a 75 mm stroke in this force class, step down to a 16 mm bore (100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa) if the load is lighter, or up to a 25 mm bore (245.4 N push) when you need more muscle. The piston does not hold position when air is lost - it drifts - so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. Mount with FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC, and order the optional -S magnet if CMSE / DMSE switches must track position in the body slots.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 157.1 N and pulls 117.8 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 219.9 N and pulls 164.9 N. The theoretical maximum is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. In practice, plan on about 94 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, roughly 8 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.
The ISO 21287 short body is hard-anodized aluminium with an S45C hard-chrome rod, a fixed TPU bumper at each end, and mounting choices of FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC. The magnet is optional: order the -S code to run CMSE or DMSE switches in the body slots; without -S there is no magnet.
