Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED20X90S
The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED20X90S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 90mm 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 TACED20X90S
Double acting with a rod leaving both covers, the TACED20X90S pushes and pulls with identical force: 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 164.9 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction, because both chambers work on the rod-side area. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or plate stays square without an external guide. The 90 mm stroke sits inside the 100 mm standard range for this 20 mm bore, and the optional -S magnet this model carries lets CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches report position.
The hard-anodized aluminium body keeps the mounting length about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it drops into tight jigs, guards and gantries. An S45C hard-chrome rod, a fixed TPU bumper at each end and ports at M5x0.8 complete the package. At 0.5 MPa the through-rod lifts about 12 kg against gravity, so halving that for a 2:1 margin means it will raise a part of roughly 6 kg vertically.

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 TACED20X90S Is Used
Fixture clamping in machining cells
The 117.8 N through-rod clamps aluminium housings on a CNC fixture from either side, and the twin guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the part.
Pusher on packaging lines
Equal force both ways lets the 90 mm stroke divert cartons on and off a conveyor at speed, with the TPU bumper softening each end of travel.
Sample handling in lab automation
A 6 kg vertical-lift margin at 0.5 MPa raises trays of vials, while the optional -S magnet feeds CMSE / DMSE switch signals to the controller.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED20X90S the Right Cylinder?
At 117.8 N per side at 0.5 MPa, this 20 mm bore suits light clamping and transfer work; step down to a 16 mm bore (75.4 N) for smaller parts or up to a 25 mm bore (206.2 N) when the load grows. It does not hold position if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. FB flange mounting and the fitted -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches make it easy to bolt in and monitor.
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 TACED20X90S FAQ
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal in both directions: 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 164.9 N at 0.7 MPa, rising to a maximum of 24.0 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed range 30-500 mm/s, and the 90 mm stroke is within the 100 mm standard limit for this bore.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow gantries and guarded assemblies. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots; without the -S code there is no magnet. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy.
