The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE80X45 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 45mm 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.
The TACE80X45 is a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: an 80 mm bore with a 45 mm stroke, a 20 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod and a 1/4" PT port. 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 2513.3 N and pulls 2356.2 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 3518.6 N and 3298.7 N, with a theoretical maximum of 512.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight weld jigs and press fixtures where a full-length body will not fit. Plan for roughly 1508 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, about 60% of the push rating, which lifts about 128 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches - without the -S code there is no magnet and no sensing.

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.

| 0.7 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.

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.
A 45 mm stroke is ideal for staking or swaging aluminium terminal housings; the twin-guide yoke keeps the punch square under the 2513.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa.
Mounted beside a conveyor, the 80 mm bore pushes cartons between lanes with 2513.3 N at 0.5 MPa, and the short ISO 21287 body fits inside the guarding.
With about 1508 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa, the TACE80X45 clamps steel brackets in fixture nests while the twin guide rods stop the clamp arm rotating.
Sizing check: a 63 mm bore pushes 1558.6 N at 0.5 MPa, so step up to this 80 mm bore once the load passes roughly 900 N of real work; a 100 mm bore (3927.0 N push at 0.5 MPa) covers heavier press and clamp duties. The piston drifts when air is lost - it never holds position - so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for any suspended load. Mount with the FB flange, CA or CB clevis, CR or FTC feet, and order the -S code if CMSE / DMSE switch sensing is needed; the yoke carries no rod-thread option.
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. The theoretical maximum is 512.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed range is 30-500 mm/s on filtered air.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body and an S45C hard-chrome-plated 20 mm rod; the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. Sensors need the optional -S magnet code, which allows CMSE / DMSE switches - without -S there is no magnet.
