The AirTAC Airtac TACED Guided Compact Cylinder TACED80X80 is a genuine double acting, double rod, non-rotating ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 80mm 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 ISO 21287 compact cylinder, the TACED80X80 pushes a 20 mm rod out of BOTH covers, so the 80 mm bore delivers 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa in each direction - the rod-side area is identical either way, with no push/pull mismatch to design around. Twin guide rods on the yoke stop the tooling rotating and carry side load, so a gripper or press plate 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 absorbs end-of-stroke shock.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is roller-burnished for wear life, with an S45C hard-chrome plated rod and threaded aluminium covers for fast service. This short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is what lets it slot into tight gantries and guarding. For sizing: treat roughly 1414 N (about 0.6 of the 2356.2 N rating) as the usable working force at 0.5 MPa, and expect it to lift about 120 kg vertically once a 2:1 margin is applied. Rod end is a female M12x1.75 thread and the port is 1/4" PT.

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.

|---|---|
| 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 gives 2356.2 N at both ends of an 80 mm stroke, so one cylinder can clamp or stamp a steel bracket from either side with identical force.
With about 120 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the non-rotating twin guide yoke keeps a box-gripping plate level through every cycle on a packaging line.
Equal force in both directions moves heavy machined housings onto a CNC fixture and back off it, with the twin guide rods resisting the side load of the part weight.
At 2356.2 N per direction (3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, up to 480.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa), bore 80 sits between the 63 (1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 100 (3769.9 N at 0.5 MPa) - step down when the load is under 1400 N of real work, step up for heavy vertical handling. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must be held. Mount with the FB flange, and if you need position feedback, order the -S code - without it there is no magnet and no CMSE / DMSE switch can be fitted.
Quick checklist
Yes - because a rod exits both covers, both sides work 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. The 80 mm stroke runs at 30-500 mm/s on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air, and the piston will drift if air is lost, so use a rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose 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 to absorb end-of-stroke energy and FB flange mounting available. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code: only then can CMSE or DMSE switches be mounted on the body slots. The rod end is female M12x1.75 and the air port is 1/4".
