The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED32X90 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 90mm 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.
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the TACED32X90 pushes a 32 mm bore through a 90 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers, so the output force is identical in each direction: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling from rotating and carry side load, keeping a gripper or plate square without an external guide. The hard-anodized aluminium body pairs with an S45C hard-chrome plated rod, and a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end of travel.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs, guards and gantries. For sizing, plan on roughly 207 N (about 21 kg) of real work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and the port is 1/8". This version has no magnet fitted; order the optional -S code if you need CMSE / 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.

|---|---|
| 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 345.6 N clamping force in both directions and 90 mm stroke suit retractable clamps on machining fixtures, where the twin guide rods keep the clamp pad square to the part.
Equal force either way makes this a natural pusher for cartons or trays on a food or beverage line, with the short body fitting under low conveyor guards.
Moving PCB trays between two lanes needs the same push and pull - the 32 mm bore delivers it, and the non-rotating yoke keeps the transfer plate aligned.
At 345.6 N per direction, the 32 mm bore suits clamping and transfer work in the mid-force range: step down to a 25 mm bore (206.2 N) for lighter pick-and-place, or up to 40 mm (571.8 N) when the load grows. The 90 mm stroke sits within the standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay held. FB flange mounting is available, and the female M8x1.25 rod thread on the yoke takes standard tooling; choose the -S suffix only if position sensing via CMSE / DMSE switches is part of the plan.
Quick checklist
Yes - because a rod exits both covers, both strokes work on the rod-side area, so output is equal each way: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 70.5 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, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Sensing is not fitted on this model: the magnet is the optional -S code, which then allows CMSE or DMSE switches on the body's magnet slots. FB flange mounting is offered, and outline dimensions should be confirmed from the datasheet.
