The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED32X60 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 60mm 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 TACED32X60 pushes and pulls with identical force because a rod exits both covers and both sides work on the rod-side area. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 345.6 N in each direction, rising to 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or plate stays square without an external guide. The 32 mm bore runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.
This ISO 21287 compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarded gantries. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a hard-chrome plated S45C rod, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. For sizing, plan on roughly 207 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting about 17 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. No magnet is fitted; order the optional -S code if you need CMSE or DMSE switch sensing.

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.

The compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, letting the 345.6 N clamp sit inside a crowded jig where a full-length cylinder will not fit.
Twin guide rods keep the gripper jaws from rotating and carry side load, while equal 345.6 N force in both directions gives identical grip and release on electronics housings.
With about 207 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa and 30-500 mm/s speed, the 60 mm stroke pushes cartons square to the lane at high cycle rates without an external guide.
At 345.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 32 mm bore sits between the 25 mm bore (206.2 N) and the 40 mm bore (571.8 N), so step up only if your fixture genuinely needs the extra thrust. The 60 mm stroke is within the standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order length is required. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. FB flange mounting is available, and the female M8x1.25 rod thread on the yoke has no male-thread option. If you need position feedback, specify the -S suffix so CMSE or DMSE switches can be fitted.
Quick checklist
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both strokes work on the rod-side area, so output is equal both ways: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa. The maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 70.5 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 1/8" port depends only on the 32 mm bore.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so the 60 mm stroke fits shallow guards and gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy but never locks or holds a load - the piston drifts if air is lost. Mounting is FB flange, the rod end is female M8x1.25, and sensing needs the optional -S magnet with CMSE or DMSE switches.
