Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X60
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X60 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 60mm 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 TACE50X60
The TACE50X60 is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 50 mm bore with a 60 mm stroke, a 16 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod and a hard-anodized aluminium body whose short profile 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, with a theoretical peak of 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
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. In practice, plan for roughly 589 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 50 kg vertically once a 2:1 margin is applied. A fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy at both ends, the 1/8" port is threaded PT, and the optional -S magnet is what enables CMSE / DMSE switches - without it no sensor can be 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 TACE50X60 Is Used
Carton push-off on a packaging conveyor
The 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa kicks a loaded carton off the belt, the 60 mm stroke clears the transfer plate, and the twin-guide yoke keeps the pusher pad square to the product stream.
Fixture clamping on a CNC machining centre
About 589 N of usable clamp force at 0.5 MPa holds aluminium workpieces in a drill jig, and the short ISO 21287 body fits inside the fixture base where a longer profile cylinder will not.
Vertical lift in a benchtop assembly station
With a 2:1 margin the cylinder lifts about 50 kg vertically, and the female M10x1.5 rod thread accepts standard tooling studs without adapters.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X60 the Right Cylinder?
For sizing context, the 40 mm bore pushes 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa while the 63 mm bore reaches 1558.6 N, so this 50 mm unit sits in the mid-force band for jigs and small presses. 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. The female M10x1.5 rod thread, 1/8" PT port and FB, CA, CB, CR or FTC mountings cover most fixture builds; order the optional -S magnet if CMSE or DMSE position switches are planned. The 60 mm stroke sits well inside the 250 mm standard range for this bore.
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 TACE50X60 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 spans 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
Only with the optional -S magnet code - the standard TACE50X60 carries no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches cannot detect position without it. The barrel is a hard-anodized ISO 21287 compact aluminium body with a fixed TPU bumper at each end, and FB, CA, CB, CR and FTC mountings are available.
