Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X25
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X25 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 25mm 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 TACE32X25
Built as a double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact cylinder, the TACE32X25 pairs a 32 mm bore with a 25 mm stroke in a 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 fixture 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 figures rise to 563 N and 483.8 N, with a theoretical 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
For real work, plan on about 241 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa - roughly 60% of the rating - which is a vertical lift of about 20 kg with a 2:1 margin, enough for a 15 kg fixture plate with headroom. The 12 mm S45C hard-chrome rod carries a female M8x1.25 thread, ports are 1/8" PT, and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Speed runs 30-500 mm/s across 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). No magnet is fitted on this code; order TACE32X25S to enable CMSE or DMSE switches.

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 TACE32X25 Is Used
Gripper actuation on a CNC tending cell
A 25 mm stroke sets a three-jaw gripper square on the twin guide rods while 402.1 N at 0.5 MPa holds aluminium housings up to about 20 kg for unloading.
Clamp arm for sheet-metal welding fixtures
The short 25 mm throw swings a clamp onto a bracket before the robot welder fires; 563 N at 0.7 MPa keeps the joint square with no external guide needed.
Part ejection beside an assembly conveyor
A quick 25 mm kick clears pressed bushings off a fixture plate into a chute, and the non-rotating yoke keeps the push square so parts do not skew.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X25 the Right Cylinder?
Need less force? The bore 25 TACE25X25 delivers 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa; need more, the bore 40 TACE40X25 reaches 628.3 N at the same pressure. Remember the TACE32X25 drifts the moment air is lost - it is not a lock, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. Mount it FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC to suit the jig, and if position feedback matters order the -S variant so CMSE / DMSE switches can ride the body slots.
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 TACE32X25 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 563 N and pulls 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Supply air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C.
The ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits tight guards and gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. Sensing requires the optional -S magnet code - without it no CMSE or DMSE switch can be fitted. Rod thread is female M8x1.25; port is 1/8" PT.
