The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE63X25 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 25mm 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.
A 63 mm piston in the ISO 21287 compact format makes the TACE63X25 a double acting, non-rotating cylinder: air extends and retracts the 16 mm hard-chrome rod, while 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. The hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this bore fits tight jigs, guards and gantries. 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 and 2041.3 N, with a theoretical maximum of 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
For real work, plan on roughly 935 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 of the rated force), which lifts a 79 kg part vertically with a 2:1 margin. The rod ends in a female M10x1.5 thread, air supply is via 1/8" PT ports, speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, -20 to +70 C, on air filtered to 40 um. No magnet is fitted as supplied; order the optional -S code to enable CMSE / DMSE switches.

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.
Pressing small bearings or bushings into pump and gearbox housings on an assembly line; the 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa covers light interference fits and the 25 mm stroke keeps the press head travel short.
Clamping aluminium gear housings on a machining-center fixture; the twin-guide yoke holds the clamp plate square over the part, and the short ISO 21287 body fits inside the fixture envelope where a longer cylinder will not.
Kicking finished cartons or blisters out of a conveyor nest; about 935 N of usable push clears the part quickly at 30-500 mm/s, and the female M10x1.5 rod thread takes a pusher plate directly.
Size by force: the 50 mm bore pushes 981.7 N at 0.5 MPa if your press or clamp needs less, while the 80 mm bore delivers 2513.3 N for heavier pressing. The 25 mm stroke suits short-travel work like pressing, clamping and ejection. If the load must stay put when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check valve, because the piston drifts without air. Mount with FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC; add the optional -S magnet in the order code if you want CMSE / DMSE switch feedback.
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. It runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air (proof 1.5 MPa / 215 psi) at 30-500 mm/s, with a 63 mm bore, 25 mm stroke, 16 mm rod and 1/8" PT ports.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end and FB, CA, CB, CR or FTC mounting options. Sensors are possible only with the optional -S magnet code, which allows CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S no magnet is fitted, so confirm your sensing needs before ordering.
