The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED25X100S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 100mm 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.
Double acting and double rod, the TACED25X100S pushes a rod out of BOTH covers of a 25 mm bore, so the force is identical in each direction: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa (rod-side area both ways). Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or press plate stays square without an external guide. The optional -S magnet is fitted on this model, letting CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches report position along the body slots.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so this 100 mm stroke unit slots into tight jigs, guard rails and gantry frames. A hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore runs an S45C hard-chrome plated rod, and fixed TPU bumpers at each end absorb end-of-stroke shock. At 0.5 MPa plan on roughly 123 N of usable work, and the through-rod will lift about 10 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin - handy when matching a real part weight.

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 | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 42 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 206.2 N grip and release force on the through-rod suits a plastics-mould pick arm where open and close strokes must clamp identically.
A 100 mm stroke with twin guide rods keeps a bushing press head square over an electronics assembly fixture without extra guiding.
The fitted -S magnet drives CMSE / DMSE switches for end-of-stroke confirmation on an automotive leak-test rig cycling at 30-500 mm/s.
At 206.2 N per direction this 25 mm bore sits between the 20 mm (117.8 N) and the 32 mm (345.6 N) TACED sizes; step down for lighter pick-and-place heads, step up for heavier clamping. Remember it drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must be held. The female M6x1.0 rod thread and PT ports suit standard fittings, FB flange mounting is available, and the -S magnet on this code means CMSE / DMSE switches work out of the box.
Quick checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal in both directions: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa (rod-side area). Peak force at 1.0 MPa is 42.0 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and air filtered to 40 um.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, ideal for tight gantries. This -S model carries the optional magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches mount in the body slots; fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke energy, and FB flange mounting is offered.
