The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED25X35S 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.
The TACED25X35S is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format, with a 25 mm bore and a 35 mm stroke. Because a rod exits both covers, the output force is equal in each direction: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa, rising to a maximum of 42.0 kgf at 1.0 MPa. 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 S in the model code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted directly on the body slots.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore carries an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Running on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), it cycles at 30-500 mm/s across -20 to +70 C. 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. For planning: at 0.5 MPa the 206.2 N rating works out to roughly 21 kg of vertical lift, so size real part weights at about 10 kg to keep a 2:1 margin.

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 equal 206.2 N force in both directions lets one TACED25X35S clamp and release a machined housing in a drill jig, with the twin guide rods keeping the clamp pad square to the datum.
A 35 mm stroke is enough to kick cartons sideways off a conveyor lane; the short ISO 21287 body fits under low guard rails where a full-length profile cylinder cannot.
Mounted as a gripper actuator for connector housings, the non-rotating yoke holds jaw alignment, and the fitted -S magnet feeds CMSE switch signals back to the PLC for part-present checks.
At 206.2 N per direction at 0.5 MPa, the 25 mm bore sits between the 20 mm bore (117.8 N) and the 32 mm bore (345.6 N), so step down for lighter pick-and-place loads or up if your tooling needs more grip. The female M6x1.0 rod thread on both ends accepts standard rod accessories; there is no rod-thread option on the yoke itself. FB flange mounting is available, and the fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report end positions. Note that the piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay held.
Quick checklist
The double-rod design gives equal force both ways because both sides work on the rod-side area: 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. The 25 mm bore drives a 10 mm rod through a 35 mm stroke at 30-500 mm/s, on air at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The S code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots for end-of-stroke detection.
