Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE63X30
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE63X30 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 30mm 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 TACE63X30
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the TACE63X30 pairs a 63 mm bore with a 30 mm stroke and a 16 mm S45C rod finished in hard chrome. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N; at 0.7 MPa those climb to 2182.1 N and 2041.3 N, with a theoretical peak of 317.9 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 - a real edge over a plain compact cylinder.
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 body will not fit. For sizing, plan on roughly 935 N of real work at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 of the push figure), and note that halving the 158 kgf theoretical lift means this bore raises about 79 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy at both ends, the 1/8" PT port feeds it, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches - without -S there is no magnet.

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 (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1458 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | 2041 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 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 TACE63X30 Is Used
Clamping weld fixtures
On an automotive bracket weld jig, the 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa holds a locating plate against weld reaction, while the twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the fixture without a separate guide rail.
Carton squaring on a packing line
Mounted FTC on a cartoner infeed, the 30 mm stroke squares cases against a back stop at up to 500 mm/s, and the compact body fits the narrow gap beside the chain where a longer profile cylinder cannot.
Pick-and-place orientation
On an electronics assembly gantry, the non-rotating twin guide rods keep a vacuum plate from twisting as it lifts about 79 kg with a 2:1 margin, and the optional -S magnet feeds CMSE switch signals to the PLC.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE63X30 the Right Cylinder?
Stepping down, the 50 mm bore pushes 981.7 N at 0.5 MPa; stepping up, the 80 mm bore delivers 2513.3 N - pick the 63 mm when your clamp or press load sits between those. The TACE63X30 does not hold position when air is lost, so for a suspended load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. Mount it FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC; the female M10x1.5 rod thread suits standard rod accessories. The 30 mm stroke sits well inside the 250 mm standard range for this bore, and the -S code should be ordered at purchase if CMSE / DMSE position sensing is planned.
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 TACE63X30 FAQ
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 proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and rod speed runs 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um.
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 hard-chrome S45C rod, a fixed TPU bumper at each end, and FB, CA/CB, CR or FTC mounting. Sensors are possible only with the optional -S magnet code - order -S and CMSE / DMSE switches can be fitted; without -S there is no magnet.
