Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED100X60
The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED100X60 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 60mm 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 TACED100X60
A double acting, double rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the TACED100X60 pushes a 100 mm bore through a 60 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers. Because each side sees the rod-side area, output is identical in both directions: 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 press plate or gripper stays square without an external guide. The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated 20 mm rod runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this bore class fits heavy jigs and clamping stations where a full-length body cannot. For sizing, treat roughly 2262 N (about 230 kg of push) as the usable working force at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating. Vertically, the 3769.9 N rating equals about 384 kgf, so with a 2:1 margin it lifts about 192 kg. A fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the female M12x1.75 rod thread on each side accepts standard rod attachments.

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 TACED100X60 Is Used
Heavy press or forming station
The 3769.9 N equal push and pull at 0.5 MPa suits a stamping or forming head on a CNC fixture, where the twin guide rods keep the die square through the 60 mm working stroke.
Pallet clamp on a transfer cart
Equal force in both directions clamps and releases pallet loads with the same grip, and the compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder on a tight cart deck.
Vertical lift-and-lower pick module
With a 2:1 margin the bore lifts about 192 kg vertically; the non-rotating yoke stops the payload spinning, and the fixed TPU bumpers soften both ends of the 60 mm travel.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED100X60 the Right Cylinder?
At 100 mm bore this is the top of the TACED range: 3769.9 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. If the job needs less, the 80 mm bore gives 2356.2 N; if you need more than 5277.9 N at 0.7 MPa, move to a larger frame cylinder instead. The 60 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a stock-length build. Note the piston drifts when air is lost - it never locks or holds a load, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for held positions. Ports are 1/4" (PT thread), and the optional -S magnet code enables CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S there is no magnet and no sensing. FB flange mounting is available if the twin-guide yoke needs bolting to a fixed plate.
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 TACED100X60 FAQ
Yes - the double rod design means a rod exits both covers, so both strokes act on the rod-side area and force 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 range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, on air filtered to 40 um. The rod thread is female M12x1.75 and the port is 1/4" PT.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder: hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore, S45C hard-chrome plated 20 mm rod, threaded aluminium covers, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end that only decelerates the piston near the ends of stroke. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Sensing requires the optional -S magnet code - this model (no S) has no magnet, so no CMSE or DMSE switch can be mounted. FB flange mounting is offered; confirm exact outline dimensions from the datasheet.
