Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X55S
The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X55S is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 55mm 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 TACED80X55S
A double acting, double rod AirTAC TACED80X55S pushes and pulls with identical force because a rod exits both covers, so every stroke works on the rod-side area. At 0.5 MPa this 80 mm bore delivers 2356.2 N in each direction, rising to 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, keeping a gripper or press plate square without any external guide.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight machine frames and guarding. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a hard-chrome plated S45C rod, and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy. This -S model carries the optional magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches can be fitted for end-position sensing. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 1414 N (about 60% of the rating) for real work, which lifts about 72 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 TACED80X55S Is Used
Heavy fixture clamping
The equal 2356.2 N clamp and release force on the 55 mm stroke secures machined aluminium housings in a CNC fixture, with the twin guide yoke keeping the clamp pad square to the datum.
Small press and staking
Around 1414 N of usable working force at 0.5 MPa stakes terminals or presses bushings into pump housings, while the short ISO 21287 body fits inside the press head where a full-length cylinder cannot.
Palletizer part pusher
The through-rod pushes cartons or trays off a conveyor then retracts with the same force, and the fitted -S magnet with a DMSE switch confirms each end position at 30-500 mm/s.
Is the Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X55S the Right Cylinder?
At 2356.2 N per side at 0.5 MPa, the 80 mm bore sits well above the 63 mm class (1458.1 N) and below the 100 mm bore (3769.9 N); step down to 63 mm for lighter clamping or up to 100 mm for heavy press work. It runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air filtered to 40 um at 30-500 mm/s. Remember it drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must be held. FB flange mounting and the fitted -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches round out the package.
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 TACED80X55S FAQ
Yes, force is equal both ways because a rod exits both covers and both strokes use the rod-side area. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 2356.2 N in each direction, 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, and the maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 480.5 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose short hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end and 1/4" ports. This -S model carries the optional magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots; models ordered without the -S code have no magnet.
