The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X15 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 15mm stroke, 1/4" 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 TACED80X15 is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287: a 20 mm rod exits both covers, so the 80 mm bore delivers an identical 2356.2 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa (3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa). Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling from rotating and carry side load, keeping a gripper or press plate square without any external guide. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock over the short 15 mm travel.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight press fixtures and gantry stations. For planning: about 1414 N (roughly 144 kg of push) is a realistic working force at 0.5 MPa, and with a 2:1 margin the rod will lift about 120 kg vertically. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, ports are 1/4" PT and the rod end carries an M12x1.75 female thread.

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 | 2356 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3299 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 481 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 15 mm stroke and 2356.2 N of equal two-way force suit a stamping or marking head on an aluminium extrusion line, where the twin guide yoke keeps the die square under side load.
With about 240 kg of raw lift at 0.5 MPa (about 120 kg at a 2:1 margin), the through-rod raises and lowers a small pallet elevator with identical force up and down.
FB flange mounting and the compact body, roughly half the length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, let the cylinder clamp a machined housing inside a crowded jig plate.
At 80 mm bore this is the second-strongest TACED size: 2356.2 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. Step down to the 63 mm bore (1458.1 N) for lighter clamping, or up to the 100 mm bore (3769.9 N) when the press or lift needs more muscle. The 15 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a standard build. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must stay put. FB flange mounting and the optional -S magnet (enabling CMSE / DMSE switches) are ordered with the model code.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double-rod design means both sides see the rod-side area, so output is equal either way: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 480.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 1/4" PT ports and M12x1.75 female rod thread come as standard for this 80 mm bore.
The ISO 21287 short-body construction saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so the 80 mm bore fits where a full-length cylinder cannot. The twin guide rods on the yoke prevent load rotation and take side load, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end decelerates the piston. Position sensing needs the optional -S magnet ordered with the cylinder; without it no CMSE or DMSE switch can be mounted.
