About the AirTAC TACED12
The AirTAC TACED12 is a double-rod, double-acting compact cylinder with a 12 mm bore and a 6 mm piston rod. The rod runs through both end covers, so push and pull are equal: 42 N at 0.5 MPa and 59 N at 0.7 MPa. Force depends on bore and pressure only, so every stroke on this page gives the same output. AirTAC builds the TACED12 as the guide-rod version of the ACE compact cylinder (double-rod, double-acting with guide rods); its order codes have no rod-end thread option.
All TACED12 versions share M5×0.8 air ports and rubber bumpers at both ends. The cylinder runs on filtered air between 0.15 and 1.0 MPa (proof 1.5 MPa), from -20 to +70 °C, at 30 to 500 mm/s. This page lists 20 stock order codes with strokes from 5 to 50 mm; the catalog maximum stroke is 50 mm.

Theoretical output force (Ø12 mm)
| Pressure | Push | Pull |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 42 N | 42 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 59 N | 59 N |
Both directions act on the bore area minus the Ø6 mm rod area, because the rod passes through both end covers. Usable force is lower because of friction and back-pressure.

Where the TACED12 Is Used
Small pushers and stoppers
About 42 N at 0.5 MPa suits light pushers, stoppers, gates and ejectors.
Packaging and assembly
Compact strokes for feeders, diverters and assembly stations.
Sensed positioning
Magnet versions report stroke ends to the PLC through cylinder sensors.
Choosing the Right TACED12 Configuration
Start with the stroke. Pick the exact travel your machine needs; a longer stroke adds length, weight and air consumption without adding force. If your length is not listed, request a quote and we will confirm whether it can be built.
Then choose the mounting. Basic (no code) uses the cylinder's own mounting holes. Foot and flange mountings hold the cylinder rigid for straight-line loads; clevis and trunnion mountings let it pivot when the load moves in an arc.
Finally pick the version: S adds a magnet for position sensors.
AirTAC TACED12 FAQ
No. Every TACED12 gives about 42 N in both directions at 0.5 MPa, whatever the stroke.
M5×0.8 ports.
Basic mounting only. Pick a pivoting cover or bracket when the load moves in an arc, a rigid one for straight-line loads.
Usually yes. Request a quote with the stroke, mounting and version and we will confirm whether it can be built, plus price and lead time.
0.15 to 1.0 MPa operating pressure (proof 1.5 MPa) and -20 to +70 °C on filtered air.
No. You can order a single TACED12. Orders are processed and handed to the carrier within 3-5 business days.
