Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X60S
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X60S 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 TACE25X60S
Built on the ISO 21287 compact platform, the AirTAC TACE25X60S is a double acting, non-rotating cylinder: a 25 mm bore with a 60 mm stroke, a 10 mm hard-chrome S45C rod on a female M6x1.0 thread, 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 and 288.6 N, with a theoretical maximum of 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and rod speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
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 guarded cells where a full-length body will not fit. Plan for roughly 147 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, or size a vertical lift at about 12 kg with a 2:1 margin (the raw 245.4 N converts to about 25 kgf). Because the piston drifts when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches mount directly in the body slots, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock.

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 TACE25X60S Is Used
Pick-and-place on a compact gantry
Moves connector housings between PCB test nests on a short Z-axis where a full-length body would not clear the frame; the twin-guide yoke keeps the vacuum cup square without an external guide.
Blister tray indexing
Pushes 12-pillow blister trays into a carton lane at 30-500 mm/s; the 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa clears lane friction with margin, and the -S magnet feeds a CMSE switch for cycle counting.
Gripper plate on a welding jig
Clamps an aluminium bracket against a hard stop during fixture loading; side load from skewed parts is carried by the guide rods, and the 60 mm stroke leaves the load station clear for the operator.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X60S the Right Cylinder?
Compare before you buy: the 20 mm bore pushes 157.1 N at 0.5 MPa and the 32 mm bore pushes 402.1 N, so this 25 mm sits squarely between them at 245.4 N. If your part weighs more than about 12 kg and hangs vertically, step up to the 32 mm bore instead of running the 25 mm at full pressure. The 60 mm stroke sits well inside the 150 mm standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed. Mount with an FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC feet, and since the -S magnet is fitted on this model, snap a CMSE or DMSE switch into the body slots for end-of-stroke signals.
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 TACE25X60S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the 25 mm bore 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. The rod is 10 mm with a female M6x1.0 thread, the port is M5x0.8 (PT), operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 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 energy. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC. Because the S code is ordered on this model, the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount in the body slots; models ordered without the S code carry no magnet. If a load must stay put when air drops, add a rod lock or pilot check valve - the cylinder itself will drift.
