Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X80
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X80 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 80mm 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 TACE50X80
AirTAC built the TACE50X80 as a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder: a 50 mm bore drives a 16 mm hard-chrome rod over an 80 mm stroke. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 981.7 N and pulls 881.2 N; at 0.7 MPa output climbs to 1374.4 N push and 1233.7 N pull, 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 press plate stays square without any external guide.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight jigs, guards and gantry Z-axes a full-length body cannot serve. For sizing, treat roughly 589 N as the usable push at 0.5 MPa - about a 50 kg vertical lift once you keep a 2:1 margin - and match your part weight to that figure. The hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C rod and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends handle 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) duty at 30-500 mm/s, and the optional -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches read position.

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 TACE50X80 Is Used
Bearing press station
Staking bearings into pump housings on a small assembly press - 981.7 N at 0.5 MPa covers light pressing work, and the twin-guide yoke keeps the ram square to the die without an external guide.
Gantry Z-axis lift
Raising cast aluminium fixture plates of about 50 kg on a pick-and-place gantry; the 80 mm stroke and short ISO 21287 body fit a tight Z envelope where a longer cylinder will not.
Weld fixture clamping
Swinging a clamp shoe over steel brackets before welding on a fixture line - side load on the tooling is taken by the guide rods, not the piston rod itself.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE50X80 the Right Cylinder?
At 980 N-class push, bore 50 sits between the 40 (628.3 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 63 (1558.6 N at 0.5 MPa): step down if your duty needs under about 600 N, step up once working load passes roughly 590 N. The 80 mm stroke sits well inside the 250 mm maximum standard for this bore, so no made-to-order build is required. Supply air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature -20 to +70 C. Note the piston drifts if air is lost - it will not hold a suspended part - so fit a rod lock or pilot check valve where position must be kept. FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC mountings cover most fixtures, and the rod end carries a female M10x1.5 thread with a 1/8" PT port.
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 TACE50X80 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 on the 50 mm bore with its 16 mm rod. For practical sizing, plan on about 589 N of working force at 0.5 MPa, which is roughly a 50 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code: with it, CMSE or DMSE switches sit in the body slots; without -S there is no magnet and no sensing.
