Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X20S
The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X20S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 20mm 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.

About the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X20S
Double acting and double rod, the TACED80X20S pushes with the same 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa (3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa) in both directions because a rod exits each cover and both sides work on the rod-side area. The 80 mm bore drives a 20 mm rod through a 20 mm stroke, with twin guide rods on a yoke stopping tooling rotation and carrying side load, so a gripper or press plate stays square without an external guide. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the -S magnet this model carries lets CMSE / DMSE switches report position.
The body is the ISO 21287 compact format: hard-anodized aluminium with a roller-burnished bore, S45C hard-chrome rod, and threaded aluminium covers. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight welding fixtures and gantry clamps. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, and the piston seal stores its own grease to cut servicing. For planning, treat roughly 1414 N (about 0.6 of the rating) as the usable working force, which lifts about 120 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø80mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X20S Is Used
Weld fixture clamping
The 2356.2 N clamping force at 0.5 MPa holds steel brackets square in automotive weld jigs, and the twin guide rods keep the clamp pad from twisting under offset loads.
Short-stroke press station
A 20 mm stroke is ideal for staking or snap-fit pressing on electronics assembly lines, where the compact body fits inside a guarded machine frame.
Vertical part lowering
With about 120 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the through-rod lowers castings onto a pallet with equal force up and down.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X20S the Right Cylinder?
At 2356.2 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 80 mm bore suits heavy clamping where a 63 mm bore (1458.1 N) falls short; step to 100 mm (3769.9 N) only if the extra body width fits. The 20 mm stroke is short, so check tooling clearance before ordering. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. FB flange mounting is available, and the -S magnet on this model pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches; PT ports are standard, with G as an option.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short stroke fits the compact body
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S if you need the magnet for sensors
- ✓ Rod type (female / male B) & mount (FA/LB/CA)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Compact body: keep the stroke short and avoid side load on the rod.
- check Do not dismantle the threaded front/back covers.
- check Keep speed within the rated range; the TPU bumper absorbs stroke-end energy.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X20S FAQ
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal in both directions: 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 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, with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted on the body slots; FB flange mounting is also available.
