The AirTAC Airtac TACE Guided Compact Cylinder TACE80X80 is a genuine double acting, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 80mm 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 to ISO 21287, the TACE80X80 pairs an 80 mm bore and 80 mm stroke with a 20 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod carried on a twin-guide yoke. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 2513.3 N and pulls 2356.2 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 3518.6 N and 3298.7 N, with a theoretical maximum of 512.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The short hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits inside presses, gantries and guarding where a full-length body will not go.
For real work, plan on roughly 1508 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 128 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin - enough for clamping heavy fixtures or raising a loaded aluminium die. The twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a press plate stays square without an external guide. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed runs 30-500 mm/s, a fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy at both ends, the rod ends in a female M12x1.75 thread, and the port is 1/4" PT. This version has no magnet fitted; order the optional -S code if you need CMSE / DMSE switch 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.
Clamps sheet-metal dies on a stamping press with 2513.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while the twin-guide yoke keeps the clamp plate square to the die without a separate guide frame.
Raises and locates a loaded aluminium die weighing about 128 kg on a tool-change cart, using the 80 mm stroke for the lift and the 1/4" PT port for a compact manifold hookup.
Presses bronze bushings into pump housings on an assembly line, where the 3518.6 N push at 0.7 MPa covers the interference fit and the short ISO 21287 body fits inside the station guarding.
At 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, the 80 mm bore sits well above the 63 mm bore (1558.6 N) and below the 100 mm bore (3927.0 N), so step down to 63 when the load is under about 900 N of working force and up to 100 only when 80 leaves no margin. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - it never locks or brakes - so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held vertical load. Mount with FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR or FTC, and add the optional -S magnet only if CMSE / DMSE position switches are needed.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the 80 mm bore 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. A practical working figure is about 1508 N of push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 128 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a hard-anodized aluminium body, a fixed TPU bumper at each end and a female M12x1.75 rod thread. Mounting options are FB flange, CA/CB clevis, CR and FTC. Sensing requires the optional -S magnet code - this model has no magnet fitted, so order TACE80X80S to run CMSE or DMSE switches along the body slots.
