The AirTAC TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED63X25 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm 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 with a through rod that exits both covers, the TACED63X25 delivers 1458.1 N in either direction at 0.5 MPa because both strokes work on the rod-side area - there is no weaker pull stroke. 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 63 mm bore sits in the mid-heavy class, and at 0.7 MPa the same cylinder reaches 2041.3 N both ways.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight welding fixtures and machine guards a full-length body cannot enter. A hard-anodized aluminium body carries an S45C hard-chrome plated rod, and fixed TPU bumpers at each end absorb end-of-stroke shock. The optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; this non-S model has no magnet fitted.

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 | 1458 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2041 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 297 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 1458.1 N symmetric clamp at 0.5 MPa holds steel brackets in a jig from either side, and the twin guide yoke keeps clamp pads square to the part without extra guiding.
A 25 mm stroke is ideal for staking or marking terminals on an electronics assembly line, where the compact body fits inside a guarded machine frame.
Equal force both directions moves a small pallet back and forth on an automation cell, with the non-rotating yoke keeping the tooling plate aligned stroke after stroke.
At 63 mm bore this model gives 1458.1 N per direction at 0.5 MPa - step down to TACED50X25 (881.2 N) for lighter clamping, or up to TACED80X25 (2356.2 N) when the job needs nearly double the thrust. The 25 mm stroke suits short-travel press, clamp and gauge positions. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with speed 30-500 mm/s. It does not hold position if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. Mounting is FB flange, rod end is female M10x1.5, and the -S code is required if you want CMSE / DMSE switch sensing.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double rod design means both strokes act on the rod-side area, so force is equal either way: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa. Maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 297.4 kgf. 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" port.
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 frames. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke energy but do not lock or hold a load - use a rod lock or pilot check valve for that. Switch sensing needs the optional -S magnet code; with it, CMSE / DMSE switches mount in the body slots. FB flange mounting is available.
