The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED25X30 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 30mm 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 TACED25X30 pushes a 10 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so the 25 mm bore delivers an identical 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa in each direction. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper jaw or press plate stays square without an external guide. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s and pressure runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this 30 mm stroke unit slots into tight jigs, guarding and gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. For sizing, treat roughly 123 N (about 0.6 of the rated force) as usable work at 0.5 MPa, and expect around 10 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries an S45C hard-chrome plated rod; the magnet is the optional -S code, not fitted on this model.

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 clamp and release in both directions lets one 25 mm cylinder swing a clamp arm over and back on a machining fixture without a return spring.
The twin guide yoke keeps gripper jaws from rotating when picking connector housings, so no external guide rail is needed at 30 mm stroke.
Compact 30 mm stroke and the short ISO 21287 body fit inside benchtop analyser enclosures where a full-length profile cylinder will not.
At 206.2 N per direction this bore 25 unit sits between the 20 mm (117.8 N) and 32 mm (345.6 N) TACED sizes, so step down for lighter pick-and-place heads or up for heavier clamping. If the load must stay put when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check valve - the piston drifts without one. Mounting is FB flange; order the -S variant if CMSE / DMSE switching is planned, since this standard code carries no magnet. Rod end is female M6x1.0, port PT.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double rod design means a rod exits both covers and both sides see the rod-side area, so output is equal both ways: 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 pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Sensing requires the optional -S magnet code; this standard TACED25X30 has no magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches cannot be read until you order the -S version.
