Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X45
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X45 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 45mm 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 TACE50X45
Double acting and non-rotating, the AirTAC TACE50X45 is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 50 mm bore, a 45 mm stroke and twin guide rods on a yoke that stop the tooling rotating and carry side load. 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 maximum of 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The body is hard-anodized aluminium with a roller-burnished bore, matched to an S45C carbon-steel piston rod, 16 mm dia, hard-chrome plated.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it drops into tight jigs, guards and gantries where a full-length cylinder will not fit. Because the twin-guide yoke keeps a gripper or plate square without an external guide, you save the cost of a separate linear rail on many fixtures. For sizing, plan on roughly 589 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 100 kg vertically, or about 50 kg with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy; the port is 1/8" PT, the female rod thread is M10x1.5, speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

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 TACE50X45 Is Used
Bearing press fixture
Pressing ball bearings into electric motor end bells on a 45 mm stroke, with the twin-guide yoke keeping the arbor square under the 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa.
Bottling line pusher
Diverting shrink-wrapped bottle packs between conveyor lanes; the short ISO 21287 body fits the tight transfer deck where a full-length cylinder cannot.
Case packer hold-down
Clamping flap-closing arms on a carton sealing machine, where the 45 mm stroke and about 50 kg vertical lift class suit small carton hold-downs.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X45 the Right Cylinder?
Step down to the bore 40 TACE (628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa) for lighter clamps, or step up to the bore 63 (1558.6 N push) for heavier pressing work; the 50 mm bore sits in the middle with 981.7 N. Remember this cylinder does not hold position when air is lost, so a suspended or clamped load needs a rod lock or pilot check valve. Mount it FB flange, CA or CB clevis, CR or FTC, and order the optional -S magnet only if you need CMSE / DMSE switch sensing.
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 TACE50X45 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the 50 mm bore 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, inside the 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) operating range with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
The ISO 21287 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. Mountings are FB, CA, CB, CR and FTC on the 1/8" PT port. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code; with it, CMSE / DMSE switches mount in the body slots, and without it no magnet is fitted.
