The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X60S 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.
The TACE50X60S is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 50 mm bore with 60 mm stroke, a 16 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod and 1/8" ports. 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. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 981.7 N and pulls 881.2 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 1374.4 N push and 1233.7 N pull, with a theoretical maximum of 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs, guards and gantries where a full-length cylinder will not. Plan for roughly 590 N of real work at 0.5 MPa (about 60% of the push rating), which lifts about 50 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The -S magnet this model carries lets CMSE or DMSE switches report position, and fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke energy at both ends. Operating range 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.
A 50 mm bore pushing 981.7 N at 0.5 MPa clamps an aluminium gearbox housing in a machining fixture, while the twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the datum face over the 60 mm stroke.
On a food-line carton closing station the compact body fits under a low guard, and the twin guide rods press the lid straight without a separate guide rail.
A bottle stopper gate on a bottling conveyor uses the 60 mm stroke to rise and block the lane; the non-rotating yoke keeps the gate plate from twisting under side load.
For this 60 mm duty, a 32 mm TACE gives 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa while a 63 mm bore reaches 1558.6 N, so the 50 mm sits squarely in the middle for loads near 100 kg. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - it holds nothing on its own, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. Mount with an FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC bracket; the rod ends in a female M10x1.5 thread and the PT ports can be ordered as G. This unit already carries the optional -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switch mounting.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 981.7 N and pulls 881.2 N. At 0.7 MPa the figures rise to 1374.4 N push and 1233.7 N pull. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 200.2 kgf. In practice, plan on about 590 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa, enough to lift roughly 50 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke energy at both ends. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. Because this model carries the -S magnet, CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clamped into the body slots; on units ordered without -S no magnet is fitted.
