The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED63X90 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 90mm 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 TACED63X90 delivers 1458.1 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa (2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa), because both strokes 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 63 mm bore tops out at 297.4 kgf, enough for heavy clamping and lift-and-place work.
This is an ISO 21287 compact build: the hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight gantries and fixture plates. The S45C hard-chrome rod runs in a roller-burnished bore, a fixed TPU bumper decelerates each end of the 90 mm stroke, and speed spans 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). As a rule of thumb, plan for about 875 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 44 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that the piston drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads.

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.
The equal 1458.1 N force both ways clamps and releases machined aluminium housings with identical grip, while the twin guide yoke keeps the clamp pad square to the fixture.
A 90 mm stroke pushes cartons onto a pallet lane at up to 500 mm/s, and the compact body fits the tight envelope beside the conveyor frame where a full-length profile cylinder will not.
With about 44 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the double rod raises and lowers a vacuum plate on a packaging gantry, the twin guide rods stopping the head from twisting.
At 1458.1 N per side, bore 63 sits between bore 50 (881.2 N) and bore 80 (2356.2 N) at 0.5 MPa, so choose down if your load is under 60 kg and up for presses above 200 kg. The 90 mm stroke is within the 250 mm standard range for this bore. Order the -S code if you want the optional magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches; without it no sensor can be mounted. FB flange mounting is available, and the rod end carries a female M10x1.5 thread with a PT 1/8" port.
Quick checklist
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both strokes work on the rod-side area: 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 2041.3 N at 0.7 MPa, equal push and pull. Maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 297.4 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, temperature -20 to +70 C.
The ISO 21287 aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow guards and fixture plates. The twin guide rods on the yoke resist rotation and side load, and a fixed TPU bumper decelerates each end of the stroke. FB flange mounting and the optional -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches are order choices; the rod end is female M10x1.5 and the port is 1/8" PT.
