Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED50X5S
The AirTAC TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED50X5S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 5mm 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 TACED50X5S
The TACED50X5S is a double acting, double-rod ISO 21287 compact cylinder from AirTAC: a rod exits both covers, so the 50 mm bore delivers 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa (1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa) in EITHER direction, because both sides work on the rod-side area. 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 5 mm stroke suits short clamp-and-return or eject steps.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures, guards and gantries. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a hard-chrome S45C rod, a fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, and the -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted - mount CMSE or DMSE switches for end-of-stroke 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.
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 TACED50X5S Is Used
Short-stroke clamp on a CNC fixture
The 5 mm stroke clamps a machined aluminium blank against a hard stop in milliseconds, and the twin guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the part without a side guide.
Eject pin on an injection mold
Equal 881.2 N force in both directions pushes the sprue out and retracts with identical power, while the compact body fits the shallow mold space a profile cylinder cannot.
Presence check with switch feedback
The fitted -S magnet drives CMSE or DMSE switches at both ends, so a packaging line PLC confirms the 5 mm nudge actually seated the carton flap.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED50X5S the Right Cylinder?
At 881.2 N per direction at 0.5 MPa, the 50 mm bore sits between the 40 mm (571.8 N) and 63 mm (1458.1 N) TACED sizes - step down for lighter clamps, up for heavier ejection. The 5 mm stroke is well inside the 250 mm max standard stroke for this bore. It does not hold position if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. FB flange mounting is available, and the fitted -S magnet lets you add CMSE / DMSE switches; PT ports are standard with a G option, and the rod end is female M10x1.5.
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 TACED50X5S FAQ
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so a rod exits both covers and both directions act on the rod-side area. At 0.5 MPa you get 881.2 N either way, at 0.7 MPa 1233.7 N either way, and the maximum at 1.0 MPa is 179.7 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, at 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow fixtures and guarded cells. The -S code means the position magnet is fitted on this model, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted directly on the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke impact, and the rod end is female M10x1.5 with a 1/8" PT port.
