The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE63X55S 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.
Built as a double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact cylinder, the TACE63X55S delivers 1558.6 N push and 1458.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 2182.1 N push and 2041.3 N pull at 0.7 MPa, from a 63 mm bore with a 55 mm stroke. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a 16 mm S45C rod with hard-chrome plating, the air port is 1/8" and the rod end is a female M10x1.5 thread.
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits tight jigs, guards and gantries. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, keeping a gripper or plate square without an external guide. For sizing, plan on roughly 935 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 79 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The -S magnet is fitted on this model, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted in the body slots, and a fixed TPU bumper absorbs energy at both ends of travel.

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.
| 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.

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 935 N usable push at 0.5 MPa clamps steel brackets firmly, and the twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the fixture without a separate guide rail.
A 55 mm stroke suits diverting cartons between adjacent lanes, the 30-500 mm/s speed band matches line rates, and the short body slots under guarding.
With a 2:1 margin this cylinder lifts about 79 kg vertically, and the fitted -S magnet feeds CMSE / DMSE switches to confirm the gate is fully open.
This 63 mm bore sits mid-range: step down to a bore 50 TACE for 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa, or step up to a bore 80 for 2513.3 N. At 0.7 MPa this model reaches 2182.1 N push, enough for clamping and light press work on a 55 mm stroke. It runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered air at 30-500 mm/s. It does not hold position when air is lost - the piston drifts - so fit a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, with no rod-thread code on the yoke; the -S magnet is already ordered on this model for CMSE / DMSE sensing.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it 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. 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 speed spans 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which helps in cramped jigs and guarding. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. The -S magnet is fitted on this model, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots. The 55 mm stroke is within the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 63, and mounting choices include FB, CA, CB, CR and FTC.
