The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED100X25S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 25mm 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, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the TACED100X25S pushes a 100 mm bore through a 25 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers. Because both chambers see the rod-side area, output force is identical in each direction: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a heavy press plate or clamping beam stays square without an external guide. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted anywhere along the body slots.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore pairs with an S45C hard-chrome plated 20 mm rod, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Running on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air filtered to 40 um at 30-500 mm/s, the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. For planning, treat roughly 2262 N (about 230 kg of push) as the usable working force at 0.5 MPa, and with a 2:1 margin this cylinder lifts about 192 kg vertically.

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.

The 3769.9 N through-rod force clamps large machined castings in a CNC fixture from either side, with the twin guide yoke keeping the clamp shoe square to the part.
A 25 mm stroke suits short press or stake operations on bearing bushes and dowels, where about 230 kg of usable push at 0.5 MPa does the work without a full-size press.
Equal force in both directions lets one cylinder push palletized cartons off a conveyor on the forward stroke and retract the pusher plate squarely on the return, tracked by CMSE switches.
At 3769.9 N per direction at 0.5 MPa, the 100 mm bore sits at the top of the TACED range; step down to the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N) for lighter clamps or up from the 63 mm bore (1458.1 N) when force runs short. The 25 mm stroke is well inside the standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed. Air ports are 1/4" and the rod end carries a female M12x1.75 thread. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay held. FB flange, CA, CB, CR and FTC mountings are available, and the fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report end positions.
Quick checklist
Yes. As a double-rod cylinder, the rod-side area works in both directions, so output is equal each way: 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 range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 20 mm rod ends in a female M12x1.75 thread with 1/4" air ports.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits tight gantries and guarding. The -S code means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be slid into the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and FB flange or CA, CB, CR, FTC mountings are available.
