The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE32X70 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 70mm 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.
The TACE32X70 is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 32 mm bore with a 70 mm stroke in a hard-anodized aluminium body whose roller-burnished bore and S45C hard-chrome rod stand up to continuous cycling. Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it drops into tight jigs, guards and gantries where a full-length body will not fit. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, keeping a gripper or plate square without an external guide.
At 0.5 MPa this bore pushes 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 563 N push and 483.8 N pull, with a theoretical 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Plan on roughly 241 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, and with a 2:1 margin the rod lifts about 20 kg vertically, so you can match a fixture or part weight straight off the datasheet. The rod ends in a female M8x1.25 thread, air ports are 1/8" PT, speed runs 30-500 mm/s between 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. The magnet is the optional -S code; without it 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.

|---|---|---|
| 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.

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.
The 70 mm stroke carries a vacuum plate down to the test nest while the twin-guide yoke keeps the plate square over the connectors, delivering 402.1 N of push at 0.5 MPa for consistent contact.
Side thrust from an offset clamp arm is taken by the guide rods, not the rod seal; plan on about 241 N of usable clamp force at 0.5 MPa on this 32 mm bore.
With a 2:1 margin the rod lifts about 20 kg vertically, so a light casting carrier can be raised the full 70 mm and returned by air alone at 30-500 mm/s.
Size by force: the 25 mm bore gives 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 40 mm bore reaches 628.3 N - if your clamp or lift needs more than the TACE32X70's 402.1 N, step up. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost, so for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. Mount with FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC; order the -S code if you want the optional magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches, since the base unit carries no magnet.
Quick checklist
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. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and the 32 mm bore breathes through 1/8" PT ports.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder - about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder - with a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb end-of-stroke shock. Mount it with an FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC foot. Position switches (CMSE / DMSE) work only when you order the optional -S magnet; the standard TACE32X70 has no magnet fitted.
