Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED100X45S
The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED100X45S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm 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.

About the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED100X45S
This is a double acting, double rod AirTAC TACED100X45S: an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 45 mm stroke, built on a hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated 20 mm rod. A rod exits BOTH covers, so output force is EQUAL in both directions - 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa either way, peaking at 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a heavy press plate or clamping beam stays square without an external guide.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight press fixtures and gantry frames a full-length cylinder cannot fit. For planning, treat roughly 2262 N (0.6 of the 0.5 MPa rating) as the usable working force - enough to lift about 192 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. This -S model carries the optional magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be mounted for end-of-stroke sensing; a fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, with 1/4" ports and an M12x1.75 female rod thread.

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 (Ø100mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED100X45S Is Used
Press-fit stamping fixture
With 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa in both directions, the TACED100X45S presses bearings into housings on a short 45 mm stroke, and the twin guide yoke keeps the punch square without extra guiding.
Gantry pick-and-place head
The compact body - about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder - fits inside a low gantry crossbeam, while equal force both ways lets the head clamp and release a 190 kg casting with the same rating.
Indexing table push-pull station
A rod exits both covers, so the same 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa indexes a rotary table forward and back, and CMSE switches on the -S magnet confirm each 45 mm index position.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED100X45S the Right Cylinder?
At 100 mm bore this is the top of the TACED range - 3769.9 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. Step down to the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N) if the load is lighter, or move to a tandem arrangement if you need more than 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa. The 45 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm max standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalog item, not a made-to-order build.
Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - it never locks or holds a load, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a held position matters. FB flange mounting suits fixed press tooling, and the -S magnet on this model lets CMSE / DMSE switches report both rod ends. Confirm exact envelope dimensions from the datasheet before designing the fixture.
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 TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED100X45S FAQ
Yes - it is a double rod cylinder, so a 20 mm rod exits both covers and both sides see the rod-side area. Output is 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, identical pushing and pulling, with a maximum of 768.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. In practice plan on about 2262 N of real working force at 0.5 MPa, roughly a 192 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder: hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod, threaded aluminium covers and a fixed TPU bumper at each end that decelerates the piston at stroke ends. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The -S code means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted on the body slots; ports are 1/4" PT and the rod end carries an M12x1.75 female thread.
