Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X40S
The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X40S 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 TACED80X40S
Double acting and double rod, the TACED80X40S pushes with 2356.2 N and pulls with the same 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa (3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa), because a rod exits both covers and both chambers work on the rod-side area. The 80 mm bore carries a 20 mm rod, and the twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating while carrying side load, so a gripper or press plate stays square without an external guide.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this size fits tight press fixtures and guarded gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, the hard-anodized aluminium body runs at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and 30-500 mm/s, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches. As a rule of thumb, plan on about 1414 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, roughly 120 kg lifted 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 TACED80X40S Is Used
Pneumatic press fixture
The 2356.2 N symmetric thrust at 0.5 MPa suits a short-stroke marking or staking press on an electronics assembly line, where the twin guide rods keep the punch platen square.
Gantry pick-and-place head
With about 120 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the 80 mm bore handles heavy aluminium fixture plates on a machine-tending gantry with only 40 mm of Z travel.
Conveyor stop and locate
Equal force in both directions makes the through-rod ideal for a bidirectional product stop or locating pin on a bottling line conveyor, cycling at 30-500 mm/s.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X40S the Right Cylinder?
At 80 mm bore this is the second-heaviest TACED in the range: 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) where the load demands it. The 40 mm stroke sits well inside the standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order build is needed.
Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - for a held vertical load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. This model already carries the -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches, and the female M12x1.75 rod thread with PT ports suits standard fittings.
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 TACED80X40S 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 on both the push and pull stroke (rod-side area). At the maximum 1.0 MPa rating the cylinder reaches 480.5 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. This -S model carries the optional magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted directly in the body slots; the female M12x1.75 rod thread and 1/4" PT ports keep integration simple.
