The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE25X90S is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 90mm 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 TACE25X90S is a double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact cylinder: a 25 mm bore with a 90 mm stroke that pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa, rising to 343.6 N at 0.7 MPa. 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.
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. Plan on roughly 147 N of real work at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 of the push figure); with a 2:1 margin that lifts about 12.5 kg vertically, enough to match a real part weight. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount straight into the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy at both ends, and the cylinder runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s.

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.
Clamps a machined aluminium bracket in a milling fixture. The twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square under side load, and the usable force of about 147 N at 0.5 MPa holds the part through light cuts.
Pushes blister packs off a conveyor lane at end of cycle. The 90 mm stroke clears the full lane width, and the fitted magnet lets a CMSE switch confirm every extend stroke.
Drives a parallel gripper loading plastic connectors into trays. The non-rotating twin guide rods keep the jaws aligned without an external guide, and the short body fits the tight gantry cross-slide.
This 25 mm bore pushes 245.4 N at 0.5 MPa. If your load is lighter, the 20 mm bore delivers 157.1 N at the same pressure; if you need more, step up to the 32 mm bore at 402.1 N. The piston drifts when air is lost, so for a load that must stay put add a rod lock or pilot check valve. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, with no rod-thread code on the yoke; the rod end carries a female M6x1.0 thread. The 90 mm stroke sits inside the 150 mm standard range for bore 25, and the magnet is already fitted on this -S model, so CMSE / DMSE switching works out of the box.
Quick checklist
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 is 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The bore is 25 mm with a 10 mm hard-chrome S45C rod, the air port is M5x0.8 (PT thread), and the rod end carries a female M6x1.0 thread. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, speed 30-500 mm/s, and temperature -20 to +70 C.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it fits cramped jigs and gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. The optional -S magnet is fitted on this model, so CMSE / DMSE switches mount in the body slots for end-position sensing. Note the piston does not hold position when air is lost - use a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load.
