Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED40X10S
The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED40X10S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 10mm 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 TACED40X10S
A double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the TACED40X10S pushes a 12 mm rod out of both covers, so force is identical in each direction: 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 800.5 N at 0.7 MPa. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the load rotating and take side load, so a gripper or fixture plate stays square without an external guide. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, ready for CMSE or DMSE switches.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight clamping nests and pick stations a full-length body cannot reach. In practice, plan on roughly 343 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting about 29 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, and the hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod runs 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

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 (Ø40mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 572 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 800 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 117 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 TACED40X10S Is Used
CNC fixture clamping
The 10 mm stroke clamps a machined aluminium bracket in a dedicated jig; 571.8 N each way holds the part square while the twin guide yoke keeps the clamp pad from twisting.
Packaging line part pusher
A short-body pusher kicks cartons sideways on a conveyor; the compact frame fits under the guard rail where a full-length profile cylinder would not, and the -S magnet feeds CMSE switches for extend/retract confirmation.
Lab sample press station
Presses sample vials into a sealing head with about 343 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa; equal force on retract pulls the tooling back cleanly through the female M8x1.25 rod thread.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED40X10S the Right Cylinder?
At 571.8 N per side, this 40 mm bore sits between the 32 mm TACED (345.6 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 50 mm TACED (881.2 N at 0.5 MPa). Choose down if your clamp needs under 340 N of real work; step up to 50 mm for heavier press-fit or lifting duties. The 10 mm stroke is well inside the standard range for this bore. Note the piston does not hold position if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. FB flange mounting is available, and the fitted -S magnet lets you add CMSE or DMSE switches for end-of-stroke detection.
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 TACED40X10S FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design means both sides see the rod-side area, so output is equal either way: 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 800.5 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 116.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For sizing, treat roughly 343 N as the practical working force at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 29 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow pockets and guarded stations. Mount via FB flange; the rod end carries a female M8x1.25 thread and the air port is 1/8". Because this model carries the optional -S magnet, CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly on the body slots, and fixed TPU bumpers absorb the end-of-stroke shock at both covers.
