Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X50
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X50 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 50mm 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 TACE25X50
The TACE25X50 is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 25 mm bore and 50 mm stroke in a short hard-anodized aluminium body that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or plate stays square without an external guide. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N; air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
In practice, plan on roughly 147 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa rather than the full 245.4 N rating, which means this unit lifts about 12 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin - enough for small aluminium housings, plastic covers or light fixture clamps. The S45C hard-chrome rod ends in a female M6x1.0 thread, the port is M5x0.8, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. The optional -S code adds the magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches; without it no sensor 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.
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 TACE25X50 Is Used
Small-part pick and place
On an electronics assembly cell, the twin-guide yoke lifts aluminium connector housings weighing under 10 kg from a tray to a PCB fixture without the part spinning, at 30-500 mm/s.
Leak-test fixture clamping
In a lab leak-test rig, the 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa presses a plastic cap onto a test port, and the 50 mm stroke clears the load for fast loading between cycles.
Carton side pusher
On a packaging line, the cylinder squares small cartons against a stop before taping; the compact body fits inside the machine guard where a full-length ISO 15552 profile cylinder would not.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X50 the Right Cylinder?
Compare by push force at 0.5 MPa: the smaller TACE20X50 delivers 157.1 N, while the larger TACE32X50 reaches 402.1 N - pick the 25 mm bore when your load sits between roughly 150 and 240 N. The 50 mm stroke is well inside the 150 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a catalogue item. It does not hold position when air is lost - the piston drifts - so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. Mount it FB, CA, CB, CR or FTC, and order the -S version if CMSE / DMSE position sensing is needed.
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 TACE25X50 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. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 50.1 kgf. Working pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and the rod is a 10 mm S45C hard-chrome shaft with a female M6x1.0 thread.
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, with a fixed TPU bumper at both ends and FB, CA, CB, CR or FTC mounting. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code; only with -S ordered can CMSE or DMSE switches be mounted on the body slots. For outline dimensions, confirm from datasheet.
