The AirTAC TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED50X80S 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.
This is a double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact cylinder: a rod exits both covers, so the 50 mm bore delivers 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa in EITHER direction, because both sides see the rod-side area. Twin guide rods on a yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or plate stays square without an external guide - a real edge over a plain compact cylinder. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted anywhere along the body slots.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs, guards and gantries where a full-length cylinder will not. A hard-anodized aluminium body with a roller-burnished bore runs against an S45C hard-chrome plated rod, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy.

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 clamping force holds a machined aluminum bracket square in a drill jig, and the twin guide yoke keeps the clamp pad from twisting as it closes.
Equal 881.2 N force in both directions lets one cylinder push cartons off the belt and retract with the same power, while the 80 mm stroke clears the lane.
The compact body fits under a low gantry where an ISO 15552 profile cylinder would not, and CMSE switches on the fitted magnet confirm each press cycle.
At 881.2 N per direction at 0.5 MPa, the 50 mm bore suits medium clamping and press-fit work; step down to the 32 mm bore (345.6 N) for lighter tooling or up to the 63 mm bore (1458.1 N) when the part fights back. The 80 mm stroke sits well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalog item, not a made-to-order build. Remember it does not hold position when air is lost - the piston drifts - 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 lets you add CMSE / DMSE switches for end-of-stroke or mid-stroke detection.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double rod design means a rod exits both covers, so both strokes see the rod-side area. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 881.2 N either way; at 0.7 MPa it delivers 1233.7 N either way; the maximum at 1.0 MPa is 179.7 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end to absorb end-of-stroke energy. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be slid into the body slots for position sensing. FB flange mounting is offered, and the rod end carries an M10x1.5 female thread with a 1/8" air port.
