Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X30
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X30 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 30mm 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 TACE50X30
Double acting and non-rotating, the TACE50X30 pairs a 50 mm bore with a 30 mm stroke, a 16 mm hard-chrome S45C rod and a 1/8" PT port in an ISO 21287 compact body. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or press plate stays square without any 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 ceiling of 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
In practice, plan on roughly 590 N of real work at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 of the push rating), which lifts about 50 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. 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 a full-length cylinder cannot. A fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy, the hard-anodized aluminium barrel has threaded covers for easy service, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches - without that code 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.
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 TACE50X30 Is Used
Connector staking press
A 30 mm stroke at roughly 590 N of usable force stakes terminals on automotive harness connectors, with the twin-guide yoke keeping the punch square over the die.
Carton clamp on a case packer
The non-rotating twin rods hold the clamp plate flat across a carton flap, and the short body tucks under a low machine guard where a longer cylinder will not fit.
Conveyor product stopper
Paired pop-up stops on a bottling line index PET bottles; the 50 mm bore resists line push and the fixed TPU bumper quiets every stop.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X30 the Right Cylinder?
If 981.7 N at 0.5 MPa is more than the job needs, the bore 40 TACE40X30 delivers 628.3 N in the same short envelope; if the load demands more, step up to bore 63 for 1558.6 N. Like every double-acting cylinder it drifts when air is lost, so fit a rod lock or pilot check valve wherever a load must stay put. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, and the optional -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report rod position.
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 TACE50X30 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 981.7 N and pulls 881.2 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 1374.4 N and pull to 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), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed runs 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um.
The ISO 21287 body is hard-anodized aluminium with threaded covers, a 16 mm hard-chrome rod, a 1/8" PT port and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends; it saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Mounting options are FB, CA, CB, CR and FTC. The -S code adds the optional magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches - order it if you need sensing, because without it no magnet is fitted.
