Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X40
The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X40 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 40mm 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 TACED80X40
Double acting, double rod and non-rotating, the AirTAC TACED80X40 pushes a 20 mm rod out of 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) because both sides work on the rod-side area. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling twisting and carry side load, so a press plate or gripper stays square without an external guide. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end takes the end-of-stroke shock.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this heavy 80 mm class fits shallow clamping fixtures and machine frames a full-length body cannot. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries 1/4" ports and an M12x1.75 female rod thread. For sizing: plan on roughly 1414 N (about 72 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin) of real work rather than the full rating. If you need position feedback, order the optional -S magnet so CMSE / DMSE switches can be mounted; without -S there is no magnet in the piston.

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 TACED80X40 Is Used
Pneumatic press fixture
The equal 2356.2 N push and return at 0.5 MPa lets a small stamping or riveting head work both ways on the same die, with the twin guide yoke keeping the punch square under side load.
Vertical lift-and-lower station
With about 72 kg of vertical lift capability at a 2:1 margin, the 80 mm bore raises and lowers pallet trays or machine guards on a 40 mm shuttle, the through-rod giving a mounting point at each end.
Clamping in a shallow machine frame
The short ISO 21287 body, roughly half the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, slots into tight jig plates where a long-body 80 mm cylinder simply has no room.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X40 the Right Cylinder?
At 2356.2 N per side this 80 mm bore sits well above the 63 mm TACED (1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa) and below the 100 mm version (3769.9 N), so pick 80 when a press or lift needs about a quarter-tonne of equal two-way force in a short envelope. Stroke 40 mm is within the standard range for this bore. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. Mount with the FB flange where a fixed face is needed, and add the -S magnet code if CMSE / DMSE sensing is planned.
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 TACED80X40 FAQ
Yes - it is a double-rod cylinder, so a 20 mm rod exits both covers and both strokes act on the rod-side area. Output is 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, equal in each direction, with a maximum of 480.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome-plated rod and 1/4" ports; the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke impact but do not lock or hold a load. FB flange mounting is available, the rod end is M12x1.75 female thread, and position sensing requires the optional -S magnet ordered with CMSE / DMSE switches - without -S no magnet is fitted.
