Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X100
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X100 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/8" 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 TACE32X100
A double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder to ISO 21287, the TACE32X100 combines a 32 mm bore and 100 mm stroke with twin guide rods on a yoke that 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 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa the push rises to 563 N and the pull to 483.8 N, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight jigs, guards and gantries where a full-length cylinder will not fit. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod, and fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke energy at both ends. For sizing, plan on roughly 241 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 of the push figure), enough to lift about 20 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

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 (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 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 TACE32X100 Is Used
CNC fixture clamping
The 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa clamps aluminum brackets in a milling jig, and the twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp plate square to the part without a separate guide rail.
Pick-and-place on packaging lines
With about 20 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the TACE32X100 lowers lids onto cartons at up to 500 mm/s, and the 100 mm stroke clears the transfer height in one move.
Small staking and pressing stations
At 0.7 MPa the 563 N push stakes terminals and presses bushings into plastic housings, while the short ISO 21287 body fits inside the bench-top press frame.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X100 the Right Cylinder?
Compare both directions before you commit: the 25 mm bore pushes 245.4 N at 0.5 MPa, while the 40 mm bore reaches 628.3 N, so the 32 mm sits mid-range for clamping and lifting jobs around 240 N of working force. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost - it never holds or brakes a load - so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a position must be kept. Mount with FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC, and order the optional -S magnet if you want CMSE or DMSE switches fitted; without -S no magnet is present.
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 TACE32X100 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the 32 mm bore pushes 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa the push is 563 N and the pull 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. 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 on air filtered to 40 um.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod, female M8x1.25 rod thread and a 1/8" PT port. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke energy. Mounting options are FB, CA, CB, CR and FTC. Position switches (CMSE or DMSE) work only when you order the optional -S magnet code; the base model has no magnet.
