The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED100X100S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 100mm 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.
Double acting and double rod, the TACED100X100S pushes a rod out of BOTH covers, so the 100 mm bore delivers an identical 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa (5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa) whichever way it moves. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a heavy press plate or clamp stays square without an external guide. The magnet is the optional -S code, and this model carries it, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted directly on the body slots.
The body is the ISO 21287 compact format: hard-anodized aluminium with a roller-burnished bore, threaded aluminium covers and an S45C hard-chrome rod of 20 mm. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters when a 100 mm bore must fit inside a guarded weld cell or a deep draw die. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end to absorb end-of-stroke energy. Plan for about 2262 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which is roughly 230 kg of usable thrust, and the rod-side area gives a vertical-lift equivalent of about 192 kg 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.
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3770 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5278 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 769 kgf |
Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used). Twin guide rods carry the side load and 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 rod exits both covers, so the same 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa strips the slug on the return as the forming side applies, with the twin guide yoke keeping the punch holder square in the die set.
The compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, letting a 100 mm bore clamp car-body brackets inside tight robotic weld fixtures where a full-length cylinder will not fit.
With the -S magnet fitted, CMSE / DMSE switches read up and down positions on a 100 mm stroke pallet lift, while the yoke's guide rods stop the platform rotating under about 192 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin.
At 3769.9 N per direction at 0.5 MPa, the 100 mm bore is the top of the TACED range; if your load needs under 2356 N, the 80 mm bore costs less, and the 63 mm bore (1458 N) suits lighter clamping. Both directions are equal because both sides see the rod-side area, so there is no push-versus-pull derating to apply. It runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s, -20 to +70 C. Note it does not hold position when air is lost: for a suspended load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. Mounting is FB flange, and the -S magnet in this model enables CMSE / DMSE switch sensing along the full body slots.
Quick checklist
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both sides work on the rod-side area, so output is equal both ways: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the bore is 100 mm with a 20 mm rod and 1/4" ports.
The S in the model code means the optional magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots for end-of-stroke or mid-stroke sensing. Mechanically it is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder: hard-anodized aluminium body, threaded aluminium covers, S45C hard-chrome rod, a fixed TPU bumper at each end, and a body about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. FB flange mounting is available; the female rod thread is M12x1.75.
