Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE63X55
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE63X55 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 55mm 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 TACE63X55
AirTAC built the TACE63X55 as a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder to ISO 21287: a 63 mm bore with a 55 mm stroke, a 16 mm S45C hard-chrome-plated rod and a hard-anodized aluminium body with threaded aluminium covers. 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 the bore pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 2182.1 N push and 2041.3 N pull, with a theoretical 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs, guards and gantry frames. In practice, budget roughly 935 N of that push for real work at 0.5 MPa - about 79 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the two-way piston seal stores grease for long service. The magnet is the optional -S code: order TACE63X55S to run CMSE / DMSE switches, because without -S no sensor can be mounted. Running spec: air filtered to 40 um, 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), 30-500 mm/s, -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.
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 TACE63X55 Is Used
Weld jig clamping
Clamps a steel bracket against locating pins in an automotive weld fixture; the twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the part under 1558.6 N of push at 0.5 MPa.
Carton reject pusher
Kicks misprinted cartons off a food packaging conveyor at 30-500 mm/s; the 55 mm stroke clears the lane and the short body fits under the guard frame.
Press-fit lifting stage
Lifts about 79 kg of die-set tooling vertically in a compact electronics press station with a 2:1 margin, guided by the yoke rods instead of an external linear guide.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE63X55 the Right Cylinder?
For this force class, a 50 mm bore gives 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa and an 80 mm bore gives 2513.3 N - the 63 mm sits between at 1558.6 N, so size down when speed matters and up when force does. The 55 mm stroke is well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a standard catalog part. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost: it never holds or brakes a load, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a position must be kept. Mount it FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC; the rod ends in a female M10x1.5 thread and the ports are 1/8" PT.
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 TACE63X55 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder 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. A practical rule is to plan on about 935 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, roughly 79 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder: hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore, S45C hard-chrome rod, threaded aluminium covers and a fixed TPU bumper at each end. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC; the rod thread is female M10x1.5 and the ports are 1/8" PT. Position sensing needs the optional -S magnet - order TACE63X55S to fit CMSE or DMSE switches; without -S there is no magnet.
