Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X60
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X60 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 60mm 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 TACE32X60
The AirTAC TACE32X60 is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format, with a 32 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, a 12 mm S45C hard-chrome rod and a 1/8" PT port. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or press 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 push rises to 563 N, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium 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.
For real-world sizing, plan on roughly 241 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 of the rated push force) rather than the full 402.1 N. In lift terms, the 402.1 N push equals about 41 kg, so with a 2:1 margin it comfortably lifts about 20 kg vertically. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, speed spans 30-500 mm/s, and pressure runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Position sensing needs the optional -S magnet code; without it no magnet is fitted, so no CMSE or DMSE switch can be mounted.

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 TACE32X60 Is Used
Gripper actuation on electronics assembly cells
The twin-guide yoke keeps a small pick-and-place gripper square over its 60 mm travel while handling aluminium connector housings, with 402.1 N of push force in reserve at 0.5 MPa.
Snap-fit pressing in a compact test fixture
At 0.7 MPa the 563 N push force presses connectors and clips into plastic enclosures, and the short ISO 21287 body fits inside guarding where a full-length profile cylinder cannot.
Indexing stop on a tight conveyor line
Mounted through an FTC foot bracket, the non-rotating rod raises a stop plate squarely to divert cartons on a packaging conveyor, with the 60 mm stroke clearing the belt edge.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X60 the Right Cylinder?
At 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, the 32 mm bore sits between the 25 mm bore (245.4 N push) and the 40 mm bore (628.3 N push). Step down to 25 mm for lighter gripper duty, or up to 40 mm if your load margin is thin. The 60 mm stroke is within the standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost: for a held load, add a rod lock or pilot check valve. Choose FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC mounting to suit the machine frame, and order the -S code only if you need CMSE / DMSE switch sensing.
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 TACE32X60 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the 32 mm bore pushes 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa push is 563 N and pull is 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the rod is 12 mm with an M8x1.25 female thread on a 1/8" PT port.
The ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it suits tight jigs and guarded stations. A fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code, which allows CMSE or DMSE switches; without -S no magnet is fitted.
