The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED40X75S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 75mm 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, double rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the TACED40X75S pushes a 12 mm rod out of both covers, so the 40 mm bore delivers the same 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa (800.5 N at 0.7 MPa) in either direction. Twin guide rods on the yoke keep the tooling from rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or press plate stays square without an external guide. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, and CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped straight onto the body slots.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight jigs, guarding and gantries where a full-length body will not fit. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, the S45C hard-chrome rod resists wear, and in practical terms you can plan on roughly 343 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, or lift 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 75 mm stroke and equal 571.8 N thrust both ways suit a horizontal shuttle on an electronics assembly gantry, where the twin guide rods keep the end plate from twisting as it reverses at up to 500 mm/s.
With about 343 N of usable work force at 0.5 MPa, this bore stamps date codes or seats small bearings on a workshop press fixture, and the short ISO 21287 body fits under a low gantry frame.
Because the -S magnet is fitted, CMSE or DMSE switches confirm open and closed positions on a fixture clamp for a CNC pallet changer, with the 1/8" PT ports plumbed from either cover.
At 571.8 N per side, the 40 mm bore sits between the 32 mm (345.6 N) and the 50 mm (881.2 N) double-rod units, so pick 32 mm for lighter clamping and step to 50 mm when the load grows. 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 and PT ports suit fixed jig installations, and the fitted -S magnet means CMSE / DMSE switches work without reordering.
Quick checklist
Yes. The double rod design means both sides of the 40 mm piston see the rod-side area, so output is equal both ways: 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa, 800.5 N at 0.7 MPa, and up to 116.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 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, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end to absorb end-of-stroke energy. The fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches in the body slots. For exact installed dimensions, confirm from the datasheet.
