The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED63X60 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 60mm 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 TACED63X60 is a double acting, double rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format. A rod exits both covers, so the 63 mm bore delivers an equal 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa (2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa) in each direction, since 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 hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated 16 mm rod runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it suits tight gantries and guarding. Plan on roughly 875 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, and the rod-side force equates to about 149 kgf, so halve that and it lifts about 74 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Position is not held if air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load.

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 (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.
Equal 1458.1 N clamp and release on a machining-centre fixture plate, with the twin guide yoke keeping the clamp shoe square over the 60 mm stroke.
The compact body fits inside the mast guard where a full-length ISO 15552 profile cylinder would not, pushing and pulling the gate with the same force.
A 74 kg vertical-lift equivalent gives margin for side-pushing off-spec cartons at up to 500 mm/s, with CMSE switches tracking position when the -S magnet is ordered.
At 1458.1 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 63 mm bore sits between the 50 mm bore (881.2 N) and the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N), so step down for lighter clamping or up for heavier presses. The 60 mm stroke is within the standard range for bore 63. Mounting is FB flange, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S there is no magnet and no sensing. Female M10x1.5 rod thread, PT ports.
Quick checklist
Because it is a double rod cylinder, force is equal in both directions: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa on the rod-side area, with a maximum of 297.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and speed is 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Sensing needs the optional -S magnet code; with it, CMSE / DMSE switches mount in the body slots. Without -S there is no magnet.
