The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED32X45S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 45mm 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 with a rod leaving both covers, the TACED32X45S delivers an equal 345.6 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa) because both chambers work on the rod-side area. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or press plate stays square without an external guide. The 45 mm stroke sits well inside the 200 mm standard range for the 32 mm bore, and the optional -S magnet this model carries lets CMSE / DMRE-free CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches report position directly on the body.
Built to ISO 21287, the hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight jigs and guarding where a full-length body will not fit. The S45C hard-chrome rod and grease-storing two-way piston seal keep friction low over millions of cycles, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Plan on roughly 207 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which is about 21 kg of horizontal push; vertically, halve the 35 kg lift equivalent and you can safely raise parts around 17 kg.

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 non-rotating twin guide yoke keeps a vacuum plate square over 45 mm of travel, and the fitted magnet feeds CMSE switch signals to the PLC for part-present checks.
345.6 N at 0.5 MPa is enough to seat light bushings in aluminium housings; the equal both-way force retracts the mandrel with the same authority.
A rod exits each cover, so one cylinder can push cartons left or right from a mid-line mount without reversing the body, at speeds up to 500 mm/s.
At 32 mm bore this unit gives 345.6 N both ways at 0.5 MPa - a step up from the 25 mm bore (206.2 N) if your fixture needs more clamp, and a step down from the 40 mm bore (571.8 N) if you are over-sizing. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, ports 1/8". Remember the piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. FB flange mounting is available, and the fitted -S magnet means CMSE / DMSE switches can be added at any time.
Quick checklist
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so a rod exits both covers and both strokes act on the rod-side area. Output is 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, equal in each direction, with a maximum of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, port 1/8", rod thread M8x1.25 female.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow gantries and guarded stations. The S means the optional magnet is fitted on this model, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clamped anywhere along the body slots. End-of-stroke shock is absorbed by a fixed TPU bumper at each cover, and FB flange mounting is available.
