The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED20X75 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 75mm 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.
The TACED20X75 is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format. A 10 mm rod exits BOTH covers, so the rod-side area works in each direction and the output force is identical either way: 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 164.9 N at 0.7 MPa. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or plate stays square without an external guide. The 75 mm stroke sits inside the 100 mm standard range for bore 20.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is roller-burnished for wear life, with an S45C hard-chrome plated rod and threaded aluminium covers for quick service. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarding. For planning, treat roughly 70 N (0.6 of the 117.8 N rating) as usable work at 0.5 MPa, which is a vertical lift of about 3 kg with a 2:1 margin. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and a fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke shock at both ends.

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.

|---|---|
| 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.

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 through-rod pushes finished bushings off a CNC jig on the extend stroke and can pull the same 117.8 N on return, with the twin guide yoke keeping the ejector plate square.
About 70 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa presses microscope-slide covers or test cassettes evenly, and the compact body fits inside a benchtop enclosure.
Equal force both ways flips small parcels between conveyor lanes, and the non-rotating guide rods hold the blade aligned through millions of cycles at 30-500 mm/s.
At 117.8 N per direction at 0.5 MPa, bore 20 suits light clamping and small part transfer. Step down to bore 16 (75.4 N) for lighter tooling or up to bore 25 (206.2 N) when the load grows. The 75 mm stroke is a standard size for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. Order the -S code if you need the optional magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches; without it no sensor can be fitted. FB flange mounting and G ports are available; the rod end is female M6x1.0.
Quick checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area and the force is equal in each direction: 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 164.9 N at 0.7 MPa. At 1.0 MPa the maximum is 24.0 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
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 fixed TPU bumper at each end and FB flange as a mounting option. Sensing requires the optional -S magnet code; with it, CMSE or DMSE switches mount in the body slots, but without -S no magnet is fitted and no switch will read.
