Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED40X80S
The AirTAC TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED40X80S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 80mm 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 TACED40X80S
Double acting and double rod, the AirTAC TACED40X80S pushes a rod out of BOTH covers, so the 40 mm bore delivers 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa (800.5 N at 0.7 MPa) in each direction - the rod-side area is identical either way. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop 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, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clamped straight onto the body slots.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this cylinder drops into tight jigs, guards and gantry frames where a full-length body will not fit. A hard-anodized aluminium body runs against an S45C hard-chrome-plated 12 mm rod, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end to soften the stroke ends. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s over 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 TACED40X80S Is Used
Twin-sided press fixture
A rod exits each cover, so one cylinder can clamp a machined housing from both sides at 571.8 N each way at 0.5 MPa - no second cylinder needed on the opposite face.
Packaging line reject pusher
In a bottling plant the 80 mm stroke kicks off-spec cartons at 30-500 mm/s, and the compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder beside the conveyor frame.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED40X80S the Right Cylinder?
At 40 mm bore this sits in the mid force band: step down to TACED32X80 for 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, or up to TACED50X80 for 881.2 N. If your job only needs a rod on one side, TACE (non-rotating single rod) or plain ACED may suit better; for pure double-rod symmetry at equal force both ways, TACED is the pick. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. FB flange mounting is available, and this model already carries the optional -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switching. Stroke 80 mm is within the 200 mm standard range for bore 40.
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 TACED40X80S FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design means a rod leaves both covers and both sides see the rod-side area, so output is equal either way: 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 pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um.
The ISO 21287 aluminium body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with covers threaded on for service. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs the stroke-end impact; it is not adjustable and it never locks or holds a load - if the load must stay in place when air is lost, fit a rod lock or pilot check valve. This -S version carries the magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches mount in the body slots.
