Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE40X10S
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE40X10S is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 10mm 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 TACE40X10S
A 40 mm bore in a short ISO 21287 body, the TACE40X10S is double acting with twin guide rods on a yoke that 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 628.3 N and pulls 571.8 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 879.6 N and 800.5 N, with a theoretical peak of 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it drops into tight jigs and guarded stations where a full-length cylinder will not fit.
For real work, plan on roughly 377 N at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. This -S model carries the optional magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be fitted in the body slots for end-of-stroke sensing. Air is filtered to 40 um, pressure runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with proof at 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed spans 30-500 mm/s, and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy. The rod end is female M8x1.25 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 (Ø40mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 572 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | 800 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 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 TACE40X10S Is Used
Welding fixture clamping
The 10 mm stroke and 628.3 N push clamp an aluminium bracket against locating pins in an automotive welding jig, while the twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the part.
Carton kick-off on a packing line
Short, punchy ejection of a misaligned carton on a food packaging conveyor; the compact body slots into the machine guard where a longer profile cylinder would not fit.
Bench press dowel insertion
Pressing a dowel or small bearing into a pump housing on a bench assembly station; about 377 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa suits light interference fits.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE40X10S the Right Cylinder?
If 628.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa is more than the job needs, the bore 32 TACE delivers 402.1 N; if the load is heavier, step up to the bore 50 model at 981.7 N. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost, so fit a rod lock or pilot check valve wherever a load must stay held. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, and because this is the -S version the magnet is already fitted for CMSE / DMSE switches.
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 TACE40X10S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 628.3 N and pulls 571.8 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 879.6 N with pull at 800.5 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 128.1 kgf. Operating pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Mounting options include the FB flange and CA/CB clevis. As an -S model the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted directly in the body slots.
