Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X40S
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X40S is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 40mm 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 TACE25X40S
Double acting and non-rotating, the AirTAC TACE25X40S drives a 25 mm bore through a 40 mm stroke with twin guide rods on a yoke that stop tooling spin and carry side load. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures climb to 343.6 N and 288.6 N, with a theoretical peak of 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it drops into tight jigs, guards and gantries where a full-length body will not fit.
For real work, plan on roughly 147 N of usable thrust at 0.5 MPa, about 0.6 of the rated push, which lifts about 12 kg vertically once a 2:1 margin is applied. The -S magnet this model carries lets CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches read end positions straight off the body slots. A hard-anodized aluminium barrel with a roller-burnished bore runs an S45C hard-chrome plated 10 mm rod ending in an M6x1.0 female thread, and fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke shock 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 (Ø25mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 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.

Where the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X40S Is Used
Bearing bush insertion
On a small-engine assembly cell, the twin-guide yoke presses a sintered bush into an aluminium housing without twisting, the 40 mm stroke matching the press-in depth in one hit.
Carton kick-off pusher
Mounted across a packaging conveyor, the 25 mm bore pushes misaligned cartons onto a reject chute; 245.4 N at 0.5 MPa clears a 3 kg carton with margin to spare.
Leak-test clamp
On a bench leak-test rig the non-rotating rod clamps a brass fitting into the test fixture, holding it square against 147 N of usable force while the gauge cycles.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X40S the Right Cylinder?
Sizing check: a TACE20X40S pushes 157.1 N at 0.5 MPa, so step up to this 25 mm bore when your load needs more than about 150 N of working force; if the job exceeds roughly 147 N of real thrust, move to TACE32X40S at 402.1 N. Note the piston drifts when air is lost - it is not a lock - so add a rod lock or pilot check valve wherever a load must stay held.
Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, and because the -S magnet is fitted, CMSE or DMSE switches can be clipped on at any point along the body for position feedback.
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 TACE25X40S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 343.6 N and pulls 288.6 N; theoretical maximum is 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature -20 to +70 C, rod speed 30-500 mm/s. The rod is 10 mm with an M6x1.0 female thread and the port is M5x0.8.
The ISO 21287 compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it suits cramped fixtures. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs the end-of-stroke shock. Mount it with FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC hardware. Because this model carries the optional -S magnet, CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be fitted anywhere along the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling.
