Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X30S
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X30S is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 30mm 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 TACE32X30S
The TACE32X30S is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, pairing a 32 mm bore with a 30 mm stroke in a hard-anodized aluminium body that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures climb to 563 N and 483.8 N, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or mounting plate stays square without any external guide.
In practice, plan for roughly 241 N of real work at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 of the push rating), which lifts about 20 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots for end-of-stroke sensing. Run clean air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. The S45C hard-chrome rod carries an M8x1.25 female thread and the port is 1/8" PT.

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 TACE32X30S Is Used
PCB fixture lift on a test gantry
A 30 mm stroke is enough to raise a loaded PCB test fixture of about 20 kg vertically, and the twin-guide yoke keeps the fixture level so connector pins mate without skewing.
Carton clamp on a filling line
With 402.1 N of push at 0.5 MPa, the cylinder clamps cartons against a backstop while the guide rods absorb the side load of off-center boxes; the fitted -S magnet signals clamp confirmation via a CMSE switch.
Stopper gate on a roller conveyor
The short ISO 21287 body drops under a low conveyor frame where a longer cylinder will not fit, extending a stop blade 30 mm into the product path at speeds up to 500 mm/s.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X30S the Right Cylinder?
Size by force first: if your load needs less than about 245 N at 0.5 MPa, the bore 25 TACE (245.4 N push) shortens the body further; if you need more than 402 N, step up to bore 40 (628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa). Keep the 30 mm stroke inside the standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order build is required. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost, so a held load calls for a rod lock or pilot check valve. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC; the fitted -S magnet lets you add CMSE / DMSE switches without any rework.
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 TACE32X30S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it 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. For sizing, treat about 241 N (roughly 0.6 of the push figure) as the usable working force at 0.5 MPa, enough to lift about 20 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb end-of-stroke energy. Because this model carries the -S magnet, CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots. Mounting options include FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, and the rod ends in an M8x1.25 female thread with a 1/8" PT air port.
