The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED20X75S 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.
A double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the TACED20X75S pushes a 20 mm bore through a 75 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers. Because each side sees the rod-side area, output is identical in either direction: 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 164.9 N at 0.7 MPa, both ways. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and take side load, so a gripper or plate stays square without an external guide. The hard-anodized aluminium body pairs with an S45C hard-chrome plated rod for long service life.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs, guards and gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the -S magnet this model carries accepts CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches for position feedback. Running 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s, it delivers about 70 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 6 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

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 | 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.
Equal 117.8 N force in both directions lets one cylinder clamp and release a machining fixture without reversing ports or adding a second actuator.
On a small electronics assembly line, the through-rod pushes trays left or right with identical force, while the twin guide yoke keeps the pusher plate square.
The fitted -S magnet drives CMSE / DMSE switches so a QC bench confirms end-of-stroke reach on each 75 mm test cycle at 30-500 mm/s.
At 117.8 N per side at 0.5 MPa, 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 75 mm stroke sits inside the 100 mm standard limit for this bore, so no made-to-order stroke applies. The female M6x1.0 rod thread on both ends and the M5x0.8 port keep plumbing simple; FB flange mounting is available. Note the load drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a held position matters. The -S magnet is already fitted on this model for CMSE / DMSE switch mounting.
Quick checklist
Yes. As a double-rod cylinder, the rod-side area works on both sides, 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. In practice plan on about 70 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, roughly a 6 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, ideal for tight gantries. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted in the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs stroke-end impact, and FB flange mounting is offered.
