The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED40X70S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 70mm 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 rod exiting both covers, the TACED40X70S delivers 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa in either direction because both strokes work on the rod-side area - there is no weaker pull stroke. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or press plate stays square without a separate guide. The 40 mm bore runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287 body 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 hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome plated 12 mm rod and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends handle daily cycling, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches for end-of-stroke sensing. In practice, plan on roughly 343 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 29 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

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 | 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.

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 from either side with equal 571.8 N force, and the non-rotating yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the fixture without an external guide.
With about 29 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, bore 40 handles steel die inserts and aluminium fixtures on transfer rails; CMSE switches confirm both end positions.
800.5 N at 0.7 MPa gives enough press force for snap-fit and terminal work, and the 70 mm stroke clears loading by hand in a compact cell.
At 571.8 N per direction (800.5 N at 0.7 MPa), bore 40 suits clamping, pressing and lifting tasks in the 30-50 kg class. Step down to TACED32 (345.6 N at 0.5 MPa) for lighter fixtures, or up to TACED50 (881.2 N) when the load grows. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay held. FB flange, CA, CB, CR and FTC mountings are available, and this -S model already carries the magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches.
Quick checklist
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal in both directions: 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. Both figures are rod-side values, so push and pull are identical.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and fixed TPU bumpers at each end absorb end-of-stroke energy. This -S version carries the optional magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots; FB flange, CA, CB, CR and FTC mountings are also available.
