The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED25X70 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 70mm 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.
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the TACED25X70 pushes a 10 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so its 25 mm bore delivers the same 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa in either direction (288.6 N at 0.7 MPa). Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or fixture plate stays 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.
For sizing, treat roughly 123 N (about 0.6 of the 206.2 N rating) as the usable working force at 0.5 MPa, and expect it to lift about 10 kg vertically once a 2:1 margin is applied. The hard-anodized aluminium body with roller-burnished bore and the S45C hard-chrome plated rod resist wear, a fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke shock at both ends, and the female M6x1.0 rod thread on each side plus the M5x0.8 PT port keep plumbing simple. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s over 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

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 and releases with identical 206.2 N force at 0.5 MPa, so a drill jig on a CNC line needs no direction-dependent pressure setting.
Twin guide rods keep the gripper jaws from rotating while the double rod closes and opens a small housing with equal force both ways.
A 70 mm stroke raises and lowers a light tray of vials about 10 kg vertically with margin, and the TPU bumpers soften both ends of each cycle.
At 70 mm stroke this sits mid-range for the 25 mm bore, whose standard strokes run to 100 mm, so no made-to-order build is needed. If 206.2 N per side is marginal, step up to the 32 mm bore for 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa; for lighter pick-and-place the 20 mm bore gives 117.8 N. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. The -S code adds the magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches; without it no sensor can be fitted. FB flange mounting is available.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double-rod design means both sides see the rod-side area, so output is equal either 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) and speed is 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body (about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder), hard-anodized aluminium construction, S45C hard-chrome rod, fixed TPU bumpers at both ends, M5x0.8 PT ports and female M6x1.0 threads on both rod ends are standard. The magnet is optional: order the -S code to enable CMSE / DMSE switches, otherwise no sensor can be mounted.
