The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X5 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 5mm 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.
A double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the TACED80X5 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). Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, keeping a press plate or clamp shoe square without an external guide. The 5 mm stroke suits short-travel clamping and ejection steps.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s, from -20 to +70 C, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. Because the short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it slots into tight fixtures and gantries. For planning, treat roughly 1414 N (about 60% of the rating) as the usable working force, which corresponds to lifting about 72 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note the piston drifts if air is lost, so use a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must be held.

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 5 mm stroke and 2356.2 N of equal force in both directions let a stamp die kiss the part and retract in millimetres, ideal for batch codes on extrusion lines.
Twin guide rods keep the clamp shoe from rotating under the 2356.2 N clamp load, holding the part square without adding an external guide.
A 5 mm nudge at 3298.7 N (0.7 MPa) tips off-track bottles cleanly, and the compact body fits where a full-length profile cylinder cannot.
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 clamps or up to the 100 mm bore (3769.9 N) for heavy ejection. The 5 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm standard range for this bore. Ports are 1/4" (PT thread as ordered), the rod end is female M12x1.75, and FB flange mounting is available. There is no magnet fitted on this code, so no CMSE or DMSE switch can be read; order the optional -S magnet if position sensing is needed later.
Quick checklist
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both sides work on the rod-side area, so force is equal both ways: 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 bore takes a 1/4" port with a female M12x1.75 rod thread.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow fixtures and guarded gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. Sensing is not fitted on this code: the magnet is the optional -S version, which enables CMSE or DMSE switches; without -S no switch can be mounted.
