Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED50X15S
The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED50X15S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 15mm 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 TACED50X15S
Double acting and double rod, the TACED50X15S pushes a 50 mm bore through a short 15 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers, so the force is identical in each direction: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa. 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 -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clamped straight onto the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling.
The ISO 21287 compact body is hard-anodized aluminium with an S45C hard-chrome rod, and it saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters in tight jigs and guarded cells. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end to absorb end-of-stroke shock. For sizing, plan on roughly 529 N (about 54 kg of push) of usable work at 0.5 MPa, and expect it to lift about 45 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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 881 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1234 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 180 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 TACED50X15S Is Used
Fixture clamping on CNC pallets
The 15 mm throw clamps a machined housing against a hard stop inside a crowded fixture, with 881.2 N holding from either side and the twin guide yoke keeping the clamp pad square to the part.
Pick-and-place gripper on a robot arm
A rod exits both covers, so one cylinder opens and closes a two-jaw gripper with equal 881.2 N grip force, and the non-rotating guides stop the jaws twisting as the arm accelerates.
Short-stroke press with position feedback
On an electronics assembly bench the fitted -S magnet drives CMSE / DMSE switches to confirm the 15 mm press stroke, while the compact body tucks under a guarding frame a full-length cylinder could not fit.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED50X15S the Right Cylinder?
At 881.2 N per side this bore sits between the 40 mm frame (571.8 N) and the 63 mm frame (1458.1 N), so step down for lighter clamping or up when the part mass grows. The 15 mm stroke suits short-throw positioning; bore 50 accepts standard strokes to 250 mm if a longer version is needed later. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. FB flange mounting is available, and the fitted -S magnet pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches; ports are 1/8" PT.
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 TACED50X15S FAQ
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both sides work on the rod-side area, so output is equal each way: 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 179.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range 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, temperature -20 to +70 C.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarded cells. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy but is not adjustable and never holds the load; when air is lost the piston drifts, so use a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. FB flange mounting is offered, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches.
