The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE80X15 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 15mm stroke, 1/4" 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 double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder, the AirTAC TACE80X15 pairs an 80 mm bore with a short 15 mm stroke and pushes 2513.3 N at 0.5 MPa (2356.2 N on retraction). 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 0.7 MPa the same bore reaches 3518.6 N push and 3298.7 N pull, with a theoretical ceiling of 512.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight press fixtures and gantries where a full-length cylinder will not fit. Plan for roughly 1508 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa - about 154 kg of real work - or count on lifting about 128 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy, while the hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod take the wear.

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 | 2513 N | 2356 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3519 N | 3299 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 513 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.
| TACE | ISO 21287 compact cylinder (non-rotating (twin-guide yoke)). |

| S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSE / DMSE sensors (omit for no magnet). |
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.
Stamps batch codes into aluminium extrusions with 2513.3 N at 0.5 MPa; the 15 mm stroke and short ISO 21287 body fit inside a tight press head.
Clamps a cast housing on a machining fixture; the twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square and carries side load without an external guide.
Ejects finished brackets off the die face in one quick 15 mm hit; the fixed TPU bumper absorbs the end-of-stroke shock at up to 500 mm/s.
For a 15 mm stroke pushing near 2500 N, this 80 mm bore is the match; step down to a 63 mm bore (1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa) if the load is lighter, or up to a 100 mm bore (3927.0 N) for heavier press work. Air pressure runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and speed 30-500 mm/s. The piston drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. Mount with FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC; order the optional -S magnet if CMSE / DMSE switches are planned. Port is 1/4" and the rod end is female M12x1.75.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 2513.3 N and pulls 2356.2 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 3518.6 N and pulls 3298.7 N, with a theoretical maximum of 512.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), air filtered to 40 um, speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C. The port is 1/4" PT and the rod end carries a female M12x1.75 thread.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at both ends and FB, CA, CB, CR or FTC mounting options. Sensing requires the optional -S magnet code; once ordered, CMSE / DMSE switches detect end positions on the body's magnet slots. Without -S there is no magnet, so no switch can be mounted.
