The AirTAC TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED63X5 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm 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.
The TACED63X5 is a double acting, double rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 63 mm bore with just a 5 mm stroke, a rod leaving both covers, and twin guide rods on a yoke that stop the tooling rotating. Because both sides see the rod-side area, output force is identical in each direction - 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a fixed TPU bumper at each end, and the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
The 16 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod ends in a female M10x1.5 thread, air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered to 40 um, speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and the piston does not hold position if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put.

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.
A 5 mm throw is ideal for marking or embossing dies on aluminium enclosures, where the 1458.1 N double-rod force stamps identically on the approach and return stroke.
The twin guide yoke keeps a clamp plate square on a machining-centre fixture, and the compact body tucks into the tight space a full-length profile cylinder would need twice over.
With a rod exiting both covers, one TACED63X5 pushes cartons off a conveyor left or right with equal 1458.1 N force, replacing two separate cylinders.
At 1458.1 N per side, the 63 mm bore sits between the 50 mm bore (881.2 N) and the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N) at 0.5 MPa - step down for lighter clamping, step up for heavy presses. The 5 mm stroke suits short-throw positioning, so confirm the exact envelope from the datasheet before laying out the machine. Mount with the FB flange; there is no rod-thread code on the yoke. This version has no magnet - order the -S code if you need CMSE / DMSE switch detection.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double rod means both sides see the rod-side area, so output is equal either way: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 297.4 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 63 mm bore takes a 1/8" port with an M10x1.5 female rod thread.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow jigs and guards, while the twin guide rods stop rotation and carry side load. End-of-stroke energy is absorbed by fixed TPU bumpers. Sensors are not possible on this version because no magnet is fitted - order the -S magnet code to enable CMSE / DMSE switches.
