The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X50 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 50mm 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 TACED80X50 pushes a 20 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so the 80 mm bore delivers an identical 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa (3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa) in either direction. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, keeping a gripper or press plate square without an external guide. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight machine frames and gantries. In practice, plan on roughly 1414 N (about 144 kgf) of real work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating, which is enough to lift about 120 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a roller-burnished bore, the S45C rod is hard-chrome plated, and 1/4" ports feed air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

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 through-rod drives a platen from both covers with an equal 2356.2 N up and down at 0.5 MPa, while the twin guide yoke keeps the die square over the 50 mm working stroke.
With about 120 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the 80 mm bore raises stacked cartons between conveyor levels, and the short body fits under low guard rails.
Equal force in both directions clamps folding cartons symmetrically at up to 500 mm/s, and the non-rotating yoke holds the clamp pad aligned without external guides.
At 2356.2 N per side, this 80 mm unit sits between the 63 mm TACED (1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 100 mm TACED (3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa); step down for lighter clamping or up for heavier press work. It does not hold position when air is lost - the piston drifts - so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. This code has no magnet; order the optional -S version if you need CMSE / DMSE switch position sensing, and choose FB flange, CA/CB/CR or FTC mounting to suit the machine.
Quick checklist
Yes - the double-rod design exposes the rod-side area on both sides, so output 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, temperature -20 to +70 C, and the 1/4" ports take air filtered to 40 um.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and FB flange or CA/CB/CR/FTC mounts adapt it to the frame. A fixed TPU bumper at each cover absorbs end-of-stroke energy but is not adjustable and never locks or brakes a load. This version has no magnet; the optional -S code adds one so CMSE / DMSE switches can report position.
