Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE80X55S
The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE80X55S is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 55mm 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.

About the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE80X55S
Built as a double acting, non-rotating compact cylinder, the TACE80X55S delivers a 2513.3 N push and a 2356.2 N pull at 0.5 MPa from an 80 mm bore over a 55 mm stroke. 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. The 20 mm rod ends in a female M12x1.75 thread, and air ports are 1/4" PT.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this bore class fits tight welding jigs and press gantries. A hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore runs against an S45C hard-chrome plated rod, and a fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy at both ends. Because this model carries the -S code, the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted anywhere along the body. In practice, plan for about 1508 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating, which means it lifts about 128 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

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 (Ø80mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE80X55S Is Used
Press-fit station for automotive bushings
The 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa seats steel bushings into aluminium control-arm housings, while the twin-guide yoke keeps the punch square through the 55 mm working stroke.
Lift-and-place module on a packaging line
With a 2:1 margin this cylinder lifts about 128 kg vertically, enough to raise filled aluminium trays between conveyor levels in a confined guard space.
Clamping fixture on a CNC pallet
The non-rotating twin guide rods hold a clamp shoe flat against machined pump bodies, and the -S magnet feeds a CMSE switch to confirm clamping before the cycle starts.
Is the Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE80X55S the Right Cylinder?
At 0.5 MPa this 80 mm bore pushes 2513.3 N, so step down to a 63 mm bore (1558.6 N push) if your load is lighter, or up to a 100 mm bore (3927.0 N push) if you need more clamping force in the same short envelope. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if a load must stay put. Mounting choices are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC, and the optional -S magnet is already fitted on this model for CMSE / DMSE switch positioning.
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 TACE80X55S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 2513.3 N and pulls 2356.2 N. At 0.7 MPa the figures rise to 3518.6 N push and 3298.7 N pull. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 512.6 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end to absorb end-of-stroke energy. Mounting options include FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be slid into the body slots; on models ordered without -S there is no magnet.
