The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X25 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 25mm 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.
Double acting and non-rotating, the TACE50X25 pairs a 50 mm bore with a 25 mm stroke in an ISO 21287 compact body that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. 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. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or plate stays square without an external guide.
For real-world sizing, plan on roughly 590 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa - about 60% of the rating - which lifts about 50 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a 16 mm S45C hard-chrome rod with a female M10x1.5 thread, fed through 1/8" PT ports. A fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy at both ends, speed spans 30-500 mm/s, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S no magnet is fitted.

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.

| 0.7 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.

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 25 mm stroke clamps aluminium housings in a dedicated fixture; with about 590 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, the twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the part.
Mounted beside a conveyor, the short ISO 21287 body fits where a full-length profile cylinder will not, kicking off-spec cartons at up to 500 mm/s.
A 1374.4 N push at 0.7 MPa seats small bushings into housings, while the non-rotating guide rods hold the tooling aligned through every cycle.
At 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa, the 50 mm bore sits between the 40 mm size (628.3 N) and the 63 mm size (1558.6 N); step down when the load is lighter, up when it is heavier. Air pressure runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), and the piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC mountings all suit this short body, and ordering the optional -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report position.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 981.7 N and pulls 881.2 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 1374.4 N and pulls 1233.7 N. The theoretical maximum is 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating, 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 absorbs end-of-stroke energy at both ends. FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC mountings are available. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code, which allows CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S there is no magnet fitted.
