Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED20X70
The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED20X70 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 70mm stroke, M5×0.8 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 TACED20X70
Double acting with a rod leaving both covers, the TACED20X70 delivers 117.8 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa (164.9 N at 0.7 MPa) because both chambers work on the rod-side area. The 20 mm bore drives a 10 mm rod through a 70 mm stroke at 30-500 mm/s, with twin guide rods on a yoke holding the tooling square and carrying side load without an external guide.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into cramped jigs and gantries. A hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends round out the build. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 70 N (about 7 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin) of real work rather than the full rating.

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 (Ø20mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 118 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 165 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 24 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 TACED20X70 Is Used
Push-pull fixture clamping
Equal 117.8 N force both ways lets one cylinder clamp and release a machining fixture without reversing the port plumbing, and the twin guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the part.
Bi-directional product diverter
On a packaging line conveyor, the through-rod pushes cartons left or right from the same cylinder body, with the 70 mm stroke clearing the belt edge in tight guard space.
Lab sample press
A small diagnostic sample press uses the 20 mm bore to apply about 12 kg of press force at 0.5 MPa, with the non-rotating yoke keeping the plunger aligned over the well plate.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED20X70 the Right Cylinder?
At 117.8 N per direction, the 20 mm bore suits light clamping and transfer tasks; step down to the 16 mm bore (75.4 N) for smaller loads or up to the 25 mm bore (206.2 N) when more force is needed. The 70 mm stroke sits well inside the 100 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalogue item, not a made-to-order build.
This version has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches cannot be fitted; order the -S code if position detection is planned. Mounting is FB flange, the rod end is female M6x1.0, and the port is M5x0.8. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), filtered to 40 um.
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 TACED20X70 FAQ
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both strokes work on the rod-side area, so output is equal either way: 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 164.9 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 24.0 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, fluid air filtered to 40 um.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with aluminium covers threaded onto the body for easy service. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy; it does not lock or hold the load, so use a rod lock or pilot check valve where a held position matters. FB flange mounting, female M6x1.0 rod thread and an M5x0.8 port are standard; the -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches is optional.
