The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X10S is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm 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.
The TACE50X10S is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 50 mm bore in a short hard-anodized aluminium body that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it drops into tight jigs and guarded 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 clamp plate 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 rise to 1374.4 N and 1233.7 N, with a theoretical peak of 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Plan on about 589 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 50 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The 10 mm stroke suits short clamp and eject moves, the 1/8" PT port feeds both chambers, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches for end-of-stroke sensing. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the rod carries a female M10x1.5 thread.

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.

| 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.

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.
A 10 mm clamp stroke with about 589 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa secures an aluminium gearbox housing on a machining fixture, while the twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the part.
On a carton line, the 10 mm stroke kicks a filled sleeve off a conveyor stop, and the twin guide rods stop the pusher plate twisting under offset side loads.
A 50 mm bore pressing a bearing into a pump housing at 1374.4 N (0.7 MPa) gives a pass/fail force check, with CMSE / DMSE switches reporting rod position through the fitted -S magnet.
For lighter clamping, the 32 mm bore of this series gives 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa; if you need more, step up to the 63 mm bore at 1558.6 N. This 50 mm model sits between them with 981.7 N push and 881.2 N pull at 0.5 MPa over a 10 mm stroke. It does not hold position when air is lost - the piston drifts - so fit a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. FB, CA, CB, CR and FTC mountings suit the yoke, and the -S magnet on this model lets CMSE / DMSE switches report end of stroke.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it 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. The theoretical maximum is 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For sizing, treat about 589 N as the usable push at 0.5 MPa, roughly a 50 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and FB, CA, CB, CR and FTC mountings are available. Because this model carries the -S code, CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clamped into the body slots, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. When air is lost the piston drifts, so use a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put.
