The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE63X100 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 100mm 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 TACE63X100 is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 63 mm bore and 100 mm stroke on a hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated 16 mm rod. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or mounting plate stays square without an external guide. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 2182.1 N push and 2041.3 N pull, with a theoretical peak of 317.9 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 gantries, guards and fixtures where a full-length cylinder will not fit. Plan for about 935 N of real work at 0.5 MPa - roughly 0.6 of the push force - which with a 2:1 margin lifts about 79 kg vertically. A fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy at both ends, speed spans 30-500 mm/s, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; without it no sensor can be mounted.

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.

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.
The 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa presses sealed bearings into aluminium motor housings, and the twin-guide yoke keeps the press plunger square to the bore without a separate guide frame.
With about 79 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin, the cylinder raises and lowers steel weld fixtures between stations, and the 100 mm stroke clears the robot envelope.
Mounted under the line, it pushes 40 kg cartons sideways into a transfer lane; the compact body fits the 100 mm gap under the conveyor where a profile cylinder would not.
Size against neighbours: the 50 mm bore pushes 981.7 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to 80 mm gives 2513.3 N - the 63 mm TACE63X100 sits between them at 1558.6 N push and 1458.1 N pull, a good match for mid-heavy clamping and pressing in a 100 mm stroke. If the load must stay put when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check valve, because the piston drifts once pressure drops. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC; the rod end carries a female M10x1.5 thread and the air port is 1/8" PT. Order the -S code only if you need the magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 2182.1 N and pulls 2041.3 N. The theoretical maximum is 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi), running on air filtered to 40 um at 30-500 mm/s.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end to absorb end-of-stroke energy. Mountings are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, the rod end has a female M10x1.5 thread, and the port is 1/8" PT. The -S magnet is optional: only when it is ordered can CMSE / DMSE switches be mounted; the standard code has no magnet.
