The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X45S 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.
The TACE50X45S is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 50 mm bore with a 45 mm stroke in a hard-anodized aluminium body whose short profile saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or press 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 rise to 1374.4 N and 1233.7 N, with a theoretical maximum of 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
For real work, plan on roughly 590 N (about 60% of the push figure) at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 50 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, the 16 mm rod carries a female M10x1.5 thread, and the 1/8" port is set by the bore. The fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches for end-of-stroke sensing. Operating window is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C.

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.

| 0.5 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.

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.
Short-strike pressing of bushings into aluminium control-arm brackets on an automotive subassembly line, where the twin-guide yoke keeps the punch square over the 45 mm stroke.
Tucking flaps on a carton sealing head at up to 500 mm/s, with the 981.7 N push handling stiff board and a CMSE switch confirming each cycle through the fitted magnet.
Locating clamp on a machine-tool fixture inside a cramped guard, using the compact body that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
At 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa, the 50 mm bore sits between the 32 mm (402.1 N) and 63 mm (1558.6 N) sizes: step down for light clamping, step up for heavier press or lift work. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - it is not a lock - so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay held. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC; this model already carries the -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be fitted straight away.
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. Running pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed spans 30-500 mm/s.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body, an S45C hard-chrome rod and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends; its mounting length runs about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted; FB, CA, CB, CR and FTC mountings are available and the rod end is female M10x1.5.
