The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED32X30S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 30mm stroke, 1/8" 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 TACED32X30S pushes a 32 mm bore through a 30 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers, so the force is identical in each direction: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa. Twin guide rods ride on a yoke, so the tooling cannot rotate and small side loads are carried without an external guide. The hard-anodized aluminium body is an ISO 21287 compact build, roughly 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight jigs and guarded stations.
The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches clamp straight onto the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs the last of the travel, the S45C hard-chrome rod is tapped M8x1.25 female, and the 1/8" port takes PT fittings. At 0.5 MPa, plan on about 207 N of usable work, which is roughly 21 kg held vertically with a sensible 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 | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 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 30 mm stroke closes a clamp arm on aluminium housings, and the 345.6 N hold at 0.5 MPa is equal on open and close because the rod-side area works both ways.
Twin guide rods keep the pusher plate square as it diverts bottles at 30-500 mm/s, with the fitted -S magnet driving a CMSE switch for PLC confirmation.
The compact body fits inside a benchtop enclosure where a full-length profile cylinder would not, and the M8x1.25 female rod thread accepts a custom press tip.
For a 30 mm stroke with equal force both ways, this 32 mm bore sits mid-range: a TACED25X30S gives 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to TACED40X30S raises it to 571.8 N. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with speed 30-500 mm/s. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. FB flange mounting is available, and the fitted -S magnet pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches.
Quick checklist
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both sides see the rod-side area: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, equal push and pull. Peak force at 1.0 MPa is 70.5 kgf. 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 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it suits tight gantries. The -S code means the magnet is fitted on this unit, so CMSE / DMSE switches mount in the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and FB flange mounting is offered.
