The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED32X90S 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.
Double acting with a through rod that exits both covers, the AirTAC TACED32X90S delivers 345.6 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa) because both sides work on the rod-side area of the 32 mm bore. 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 90 mm stroke sits inside the standard range for this bore, and the -S code means the magnet is fitted for CMSE / DMSE switches.
The body is a hard-anodized aluminium ISO 21287 compact build that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight jigs, guarding and gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, the S45C rod is hard-chrome plated, and the piston seal stores its own grease for long service. Running 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um, it takes 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating and works from -20 to +70 C.

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 through rod clamps or presses with 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa in both directions, so one cylinder serves two tooling faces on a machining fixture without reversing the mount.
Twin guide rods keep the gripper from rotating through the 90 mm travel, holding a plastic housing square as it transfers between an assembly nest and an eject chute.
With the -S magnet fitted, CMSE / DMSE switches confirm end positions on a leak-test fixture, while the compact body fits inside the machine guard where a full-length profile cylinder would not.
At 345.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa, plan on roughly 207 N of real work rather than the full rating; expressed as lift, the rod-side area raises about 35 kg, so halve that to about 17 kg for a 2:1 vertical margin. If your load needs less force, the TACED25X90S gives 206.2 N both ways; if it needs more, step up to the TACED40X90S at 571.8 N. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must be held. FB flange mounting is available, and the fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches report position.
Quick checklist
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both strokes act on the rod-side area of the 32 mm bore: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, equal push and pull. The maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 70.5 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose short aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it suits tight gantries and guarded stations. The S means the optional -S magnet is fitted on this model, allowing CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches; models without the S code carry no magnet. Rod end is a female M8x1.25 thread and the port is 1/8" (PT).
