The AirTAC TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED50X25S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 25mm 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 and double rod, the TACED50X25S pushes with an identical 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa in each direction because a rod leaves both covers and every stroke works on the rod-side area. At 0.7 MPa that rises to 1233.7 N either way, with a ceiling of 179.7 kgf at 1.0 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 - a real edge over a plain compact cylinder.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs, guards and gantries. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a roller-burnished bore, the S45C rod is hard-chrome plated, and fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke energy at both ends. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be mounted for end-position sensing.

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 | 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.

ACE-family variants: ACE (double acting), ASE / ATE (single acting push / pull), ACED (double rod), ACEJ (double rod, 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 equal 881.2 N clamp in both directions lets one cylinder swing a clamp arm open and closed with identical force, while the twin guide yoke keeps the clamp pad from twisting against the workpiece.
A 25 mm stroke is ideal for nudging cartons or blisters sideways at a reject gate, and the compact body fits where a full-length profile cylinder would overhang the frame.
At 881.2 N per direction the 50 mm bore sits mid-range: step down to the 40 mm bore (571.8 N at 0.5 MPa) for lighter clamping, or up to the 63 mm bore (1458.1 N) when the load grows. The 25 mm stroke suits short push, press or transfer moves; longer standard strokes are available for this bore. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a held load matters. FB flange mounting is offered, and the -S magnet on this model pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches; ports are 1/8" and the rod end takes an M10x1.5 female thread.
Quick checklist
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so a rod exits both covers and both strokes act on the rod-side area. Output is 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa, identical in each direction, with a maximum of 179.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 16 mm hard-chrome rod ends in an M10x1.5 female thread.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits tight jigs and gantries. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots for end-position signals. FB flange mounting is available, fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke shock at both covers, and the piston does not hold position when air is lost - use a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load.
