The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED25X35 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 35mm 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 AirTAC TACED25X35 pushes a rod out of both covers of its ISO 21287 compact body, so the 25 mm bore delivers an identical 206.2 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa (288.6 N at 0.7 MPa). Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, keeping a gripper or plate square without an external guide. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight jigs and guarding where a full-length body will not fit.
In practice, plan for roughly 124 N of real work at 0.5 MPa instead of the full rating, and for vertical duty that means the yoke lifts about 10 kg with a 2:1 margin. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a roller-burnished bore, the S45C rod is hard-chrome plated, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the rod end is a female M6x1.0 thread with an M5x0.8 port.

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.
The through-rod clamps a machined aluminium bracket in a CNC fixture with equal 206.2 N force whichever way the part is loaded, and the twin guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the datum.
A 35 mm stroke is enough to divert cartons off a conveyor lane; the non-rotating yoke keeps the pusher plate flat against the box face at 30-500 mm/s line speeds.
Lifting a 10 kg sensor head vertically with a 2:1 margin on a lab test rig, where the compact body fits under a low gantry and the female M6x1.0 thread takes a custom probe holder.
At 206.2 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 25 mm bore sits between the 20 mm (117.8 N) and 32 mm (345.6 N) options: step down to 20 for lighter pick-and-place heads, up to 32 when the load or side force grows. The 35 mm stroke is well inside the 150 mm standard range for this bore, so it ships as a catalogue item. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must be held. Mounting is FB flange, and if you need position feedback, order the -S code to enable CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S there is no magnet fitted.
Quick checklist
Yes - because a rod exits both covers, both sides work on the rod-side area, so force 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 range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) on air filtered to 40 um, speed 30-500 mm/s, and the twin guide yoke carries the side load while stopping rotation.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow jigs and guarding, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbing end-of-stroke energy. Sensing is not fitted as standard: order the -S code for the optional magnet, which allows CMSE or DMSE switches on the body slots. Without -S there is no magnet and no switch can be read.
