The AirTAC TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED50X80 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm 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.
Double acting and double rod, the TACED50X80 pushes a rod out of both covers, so its 50 mm bore delivers an identical 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa (1233.7 N at 0.7 MPa) in each direction - there is no weaker return stroke. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, keeping a gripper or press plate square without an external guide. The rod end carries a female M10x1.5 thread and the air port is 1/8" PT.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is an ISO 21287 compact build, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which makes it easy to drop into tight jigs and guarding. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, and the optional -S magnet (not fitted on this code) enables CMSE / DMSE switches.

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 881.2 N both-ways force clamps a machined aluminium housing in a CNC fixture and retracts with the same power, while the twin guide yoke keeps the clamp pad from twisting.
An 80 mm stroke ejects filled cartons from a conveyor lane at up to 500 mm/s, and the equal return force resets the pusher plate without a separate return cylinder.
At 50 mm bore this sits in the mid-force band: step down to TACED40X80 for 571.8 N at 0.5 MPa, or step up to TACED63X80 when you need 1458.1 N. Both directions are equal, so sizing the return stroke needs no derating. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. FB flange mounting suits fixed jig plates, and if you need position sensing order the -S code, since this standard version has no magnet.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double-rod design exposes the rod-side area on both strokes, so output is equal both ways: 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 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 rod ends in a female M10x1.5 thread with a 1/8" PT port.
The ISO 21287 compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow jigs and guarded gantries. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code; this standard TACED50X80 has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches cannot be read on it. Mounting is FB flange, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke impact.
