The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED25X90S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 90mm 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, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the TACED25X90S pushes a 25 mm bore through a 90 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers, so the output force is identical in each direction: 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and take side load, letting a gripper or press plate stay square without an external guide. The hard-anodized aluminium body pairs with an S45C hard-chrome plated rod, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock.
Because the short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, this 90 mm stroke model slots into tight jigs, guards and gantries. A practical sizing check: plan on roughly 124 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which is about 12 kgf, so halving for margin it lifts around 6 kg vertically. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clamped straight onto the body. Ports are M5x0.8, pressure runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), and speed spans 30-500 mm/s.

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 force in both directions lets one TACED25X90S clamp and release a machining fixture without a return spring, while the twin guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the part.
The 90 mm stroke kicks cartons or blisters off a conveyor at up to 500 mm/s, and the fitted -S magnet with a CMSE switch confirms the diverter reached each end.
With about 6 kg vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the non-rotating double rod raises and lowers sample trays inside a compact gantry where a full-length profile cylinder will not fit.
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 up to 32 mm if your fixture needs closer to 350 N. The 90 mm stroke is within the 150 mm standard range for bore 25, so no made-to-order stroke is needed. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. FB flange mounting is available, and this -S model already carries the optional magnet for CMSE / DMSE switch position feedback.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double-rod design means a rod exits both covers, so both strokes see the rod-side area. Output is 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction, with a maximum of 42.0 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and speed is 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, ideal for tight jigs and gantries, and the fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke shock. This -S version carries the optional magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly on the body slots for end-of-stroke or mid-stroke sensing. FB flange mounting is offered, and the female rod thread is M6x1.0.
