The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE63X90S is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 90mm 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 TACE63X90S is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 63 mm bore and 90 mm stroke in 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 press 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 and 2041.3 N, with a theoretical ceiling 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 and guarding where a full-length cylinder will not fit. Plan on roughly 935 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, about 0.6 of the rating, which lifts about 79 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Air supply runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, the port is 1/8 inch PT, and the rod end carries a female M10x1.5 thread. This model carries the -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be mounted for end-of-stroke signals, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs stroke-end impact.

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.

| 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.
On an automotive subassembly line, the 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa seats light bushings, while the twin-guide yoke keeps the arbor square to the bore so parts are not skewed.
A 90 mm stroke clears the conveyor lane to push filled trays into a lane diverter, and the non-rotating pusher plate stays aligned run after run without an external guide.
Guide rods on the yoke carry the side load of a clamp arm on sheet-metal panels, holding the fixture square through spot-welding cycles at 30-500 mm/s.
Step down to the TACE50 when the job is lighter clamping: it pushes 981.7 N at 0.5 MPa. Step up to the TACE80, which delivers 2513.3 N at 0.5 MPa, once the load grows beyond what this 63 mm bore can cycle comfortably. The piston drifts if air is lost, so it is not a position lock - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must be held. FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC mountings suit this bore, and because the -S magnet is fitted on this model, CMSE / DMSE switches report stroke end without extra tooling.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N. At 0.7 MPa push rises to 2182.1 N with 2041.3 N on the pull stroke, and the theoretical maximum is 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For real work, plan on about 935 N, roughly 0.6 of the push rating, which lifts about 79 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
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 stroke end to absorb impact. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. Because this model carries the -S magnet, CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clamped to the body slots for end-of-stroke signals.
