Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X60
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X60 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 60mm 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 TACE25X60
The TACE25X60 is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 25 mm bore pushing 245.4 N (pull 206.2 N) at 0.5 MPa, rising to 343.6 N at 0.7 MPa, over a 60 mm stroke with a 10 mm hard-chrome S45C rod on a female M6x1.0 thread. 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 - a real edge over a plain compact cylinder.
The hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and gantries where a full-length body will not fit. Plan for about 147 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 12 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The magnet is optional: order the -S code to enable CMSE / DMSE switches. Speed runs 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with a fixed TPU bumper at each end.

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 TACE25X60 Is Used
Small-parts ejection in assembly fixtures
With 245.4 N of push at 0.5 MPa over a 60 mm stroke, it kicks finished bushings off a locating mandrel in an automotive sub-assembly jig, and the twin-guide yoke keeps the pusher square to the part.
Packaging line pusher
Mounted beside a carton conveyor, the 60 mm stroke diverts misaligned boxes at up to 500 mm/s, while the twin guide rods carry the side load of the pusher pad without a separate guide rail.
Gripper actuation on pick-and-place
The non-rotating yoke drives a two-jaw gripper on an electronics pick-and-place head, holding PCB connectors square through the full 60 mm travel; the roughly 12 kg vertical lift margin covers head and part weight.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X60 the Right Cylinder?
At 245.4 N push (206.2 N pull) at 0.5 MPa, the 25 mm bore sits between the 20 mm size (157.1 N) and the 32 mm size (402.1 N) in the same compact family - step down for lighter clamps, up if your tooling mass grows. The 60 mm stroke is well inside the 150 mm maximum for this bore, so it ships as a catalogue item. The piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. Mount with FB, CA, CB, CR or FTC, and specify the optional -S magnet if CMSE / DMSE switching is planned; ports are M5x0.8 with PT thread.
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 TACE25X60 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 343.6 N (pull 288.6 N). Theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 50.1 kgf. Air must be filtered to 40 um; operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end to absorb end-of-stroke shock. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. Position sensing needs the optional -S magnet code; with it, CMSE / DMSE switches mount in the body slots. Without -S there is no magnet.
