The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED25X10S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 10mm 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 TACED25X10S is a double acting, double rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 25 mm bore with a 10 mm stroke, a rod exiting BOTH covers so the output force is equal in each direction (206.2 N at 0.5 MPa, 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa, 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 hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated rod runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this 25 mm size slots into tight pick-and-place heads and small jigs. Practical sizing: plan on roughly 124 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 of the rating), which lifts about 10 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The S code means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted directly in the body slots, and a fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy at both ends.

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.

At 206.2 N per direction at 0.5 MPa, the 25 mm bore sits between the 20 mm (117.8 N) and the 32 mm (345.6 N): step down for lighter sensor-driven slides, step up when the 10 mm rod needs more thrust margin. The 10 mm stroke is well inside the standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed. Choose FB flange mounting if the yoke must bolt to a fixed plate, and remember the female M6x1.0 rod thread with a PT port. It does not hold position when air is lost - the piston drifts - so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load.
Quick checklist
Yes - it is a double rod cylinder, so a rod exits both covers and both strokes see the rod-side area. The figures are identical each way: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 42.0 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, and the port is M5x0.8 with a female M6x1.0 rod thread.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits where a full-length cylinder will not. This S-version carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed / solid-state switches clip into the body slots for end-of-stroke or mid-stroke signals. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and FB flange mounting is available.
