The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED100X50 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 50mm 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 with a rod leaving both covers, the TACED100X50 delivers 3769.9 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa because both sides work on the rod-side area. The 100 mm bore sits at the top of the ACE range, and the ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so heavy clamping fits into tight press frames and weld fixtures. A twin guide yoke with two guide rods stops the tooling rotating and carries side load, keeping a press plate square without an external guide.
The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a 20 mm S45C hard-chrome rod, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Plan for roughly 2262 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which is about 230 kg of usable thrust; halving the 384 kg vertical-lift equivalent gives a 2:1 margin, so it lifts about 192 kg vertically. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

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.
The 3769.9 N dual-direction thrust clamps steel housings in a 50 mm stroke press fixture, with the twin guide yoke keeping the pressure plate square.
A 100 mm double rod lifts and lowers a conveyor stopper blade, pushing and pulling with equal 3769.9 N force at 0.5 MPa for repeatable indexing.
Slides a heavy weld-fixture gate both ways at up to 500 mm/s, where the non-rotating twin rods keep the gate aligned without external guides.
At this force class the step down is the 80 mm bore at 2356.2 N and the step up does not exist in the range, so 100 mm is the strongest TACED offered. Both directions give the same 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa, so sizing is the same for push and pull strokes. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. The 1/4" port suits higher flow at this bore, mounting is FB flange, and order the optional -S code if you need CMSE or DMSE switch positions.
Quick checklist
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both directions work on the rod-side area: 3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, equal push and pull. Maximum output at 1.0 MPa is 768.8 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and speed is 30-500 mm/s.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a hard-anodized aluminium body, M12x1.75 female rod thread and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. Sensing needs the optional -S magnet code; with -S ordered, CMSE or DMSE switches mount in the body slots. FB flange mounting is available.
