The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X25 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 25mm 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 TACE25X25 is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 25 mm bore with a 25 mm stroke, a 10 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod, and twin guide rods on a yoke that stop the tooling rotating and carry side load. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 343.6 N push and 288.6 N pull, with a theoretical peak of 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Its hard-anodized aluminium 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. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock across the 30-500 mm/s speed range. In practice, plan on roughly 147 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa - enough to lift about 12 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Position sensing needs the optional -S magnet code; without it, no CMSE or DMSE switch can be 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.

| 0.5 MPa | 245 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 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.
A 25 mm index on a camera-check station: the twin-guide yoke keeps the inspection plate square to the lens with no external guide, and the short body fits inside the machine guard.
245.4 N of push at 0.5 MPa holds a flap down while the glue sets, and the fixed TPU bumper quiets each 25 mm stroke at line speed.
The guide rods carry the side load of sweeping containers off the lane, while the 25 mm stroke clears the lane edge in a compact envelope.
This 25 mm bore delivers 245.4 N of push at 0.5 MPa, sitting between the 20 mm bore (157.1 N) and the 32 mm bore (402.1 N) - step down for light loads, up when you want more margin. The piston drifts if air is lost, so fit a rod lock or pilot check valve wherever a load must stay put. The yoke takes no rod-thread code: the rod ends in a female M6x1.0 thread and the port is M5x0.8. Choose FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC mounting, and add the optional -S code if CMSE or DMSE switches are planned.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N; at 0.7 MPa push is 343.6 N and pull is 288.6 N. The theoretical maximum is 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Supply air filtered to 40 um within 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi); proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 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. Sensing requires the optional -S magnet code, which enables CMSE or DMSE switches; the base TACE25X25 carries no magnet. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC.
