Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X100S
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X100S is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 100mm 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 TACE50X100S
The TACE50X100S is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, pairing a 50 mm bore and 100 mm stroke with a hard-anodized aluminium body and an S45C hard-chrome plated 16 mm rod. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or clamping plate stays square without an external guide. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 981.7 N and pulls 881.2 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures climb to 1374.4 N and 1233.7 N, with a theoretical 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits tight jigs, guards and gantries where a full-length cylinder will not. For sizing, plan on roughly 589 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 of the push force), which corresponds to lifting a part of about 50 kg vertically on a 2:1 margin - the theoretical lift is near 100 kg. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped straight into the magnet slots around the body.

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 (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 881 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | 1234 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 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 TACE50X100S Is Used
Die-cast housing pick-up on a machining line
The twin-guide yoke keeps a gripper square over an aluminium die-cast housing, while the 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa clamps the part against the fixture through the 100 mm approach stroke.
Bottling line conveyor pusher
Mounted on an FTC foot bracket, the 50 mm bore kicks off-spec bottles sideways at up to 500 mm/s, and the -S magnet lets a DMSE switch confirm full retract between batches.
Bearing press-fit station
With about 589 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa, the cylinder seats small bearings into housings on an electronics assembly bench, the TPU bumper softening each end of the 100 mm stroke.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X100S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 50 mm bore when your load needs more than a 32 mm bore can give - the 32 mm pushes 402.1 N at 0.5 MPa - but a 63 mm bore (1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa) would be oversized. The 100 mm stroke sits well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so no made-to-order barrel is needed. Note that the piston drifts if air is lost; it never locks or brakes, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a held load matters.
The 1/8" port, PT thread and female M10x1.5 rod thread suit standard fittings, with FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC mounting to bolt into your fixture. Because the -S magnet is already fitted on this model, CMSE or DMSE switches can be added at any point in the 30-500 mm/s travel without reordering the cylinder.
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 TACE50X100S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder pushes 981.7 N and pulls 881.2 N. At 0.7 MPa the push rises to 1374.4 N and the pull to 1233.7 N, and the theoretical maximum is 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi), piston speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and the working temperature range is -20 to +70 C on air filtered to 40 um.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with threaded aluminium covers and a fixed TPU bumper at each end that only decelerates the piston - it never holds a load, so use a rod lock or pilot check valve for that. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be seated in the slots around the body.
