Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED32X55
The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED32X55 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 55mm 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.

About the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED32X55
Double acting and double rod, the TACED32X55 pushes a rod out of BOTH covers of its ISO 21287 compact body, so the 32 mm bore delivers an identical 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa in each direction (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa). A twin guide yoke keeps the load non-rotating, and the short hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, letting it slot into tight jigs and gantries.
For sizing, treat roughly 207 N (about 0.6 of the 345.6 N rating) as the usable working force at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 17 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The 12 mm S45C hard-chrome rod runs 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbing stroke-end shock. No magnet is fitted on this version; the optional -S code adds one for CMSE / DMSE switches.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED32X55 Is Used
Symmetric clamp fixtures
The through-rod gives 345.6 N clamping and release at 0.5 MPa from one compact body, ideal for machining jigs where a pull-back clamp mirrors the push side.
Pick-and-place flip stations
Twin guide rods stop a flip plate rotating on a PCB or small-part transfer arm, keeping the tooling square through thousands of 55 mm cycles at 30-500 mm/s.
Press-fit ejection slides
About 207 N of usable force ejects bushings or pins from assembly dies inside guarded cells, where the short body fits the 50%-saved mounting space.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED32X55 the Right Cylinder?
At 345.6 N per direction, the 32 mm bore sits between the 25 mm (206.2 N) and the 40 mm (571.8 N) at 0.5 MPa. Choose the 25 mm if your clamp or lift needs under about 200 N, step up to the 40 mm when you need closer to 570 N. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. This TACED32X55 has a female M8x1.25 rod thread, PT ports, and no magnet - order the -S variant if CMSE / DMSE position sensing is planned. FB flange, CA, CB, CR and FTC mountings are available.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short stroke fits the compact body
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S if you need the magnet for sensors
- ✓ Rod type (female / male B) & mount (FA/LB/CA)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Compact body: keep the stroke short and avoid side load on the rod.
- check Do not dismantle the threaded front/back covers.
- check Keep speed within the rated range; the TPU bumper absorbs stroke-end energy.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED32X55 FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design means a rod exits both covers, so both sides see the rod-side area. Output is 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, equal in extend and retract, with a maximum of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and the twin guide rods carry side load while preventing rotation - no external guide needed. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Position sensing needs the optional -S magnet code; this model has no magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches cannot be mounted on it.
