Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X100B
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X100B is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 100mm 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.

About the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X100B
This AirTAC ACE100X100B is a double acting compact cylinder that extends and retracts its 20 mm rod with air on both strokes. It delivers a 3927 N push and a 3769.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, so it suits heavy clamping and pressing tasks in a short envelope.
The ISO 21287 body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, freeing space in tight fixtures. The male rod thread (B code) simplifies direct coupling, and the 1/4" port accepts standard fittings. For a safe working load, plan on roughly 2356 N at 0.5 MPa, which equals about 240 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X100B Is Used
Heavy Clamp Fixture
Use in a CNC machining fixture to clamp thick steel plates with a 3927 N force at 0.5 MPa, holding parts securely during milling.
Carton Compression Test
Drive a platen to compress corrugated cartons in a quality lab, applying a controlled 3769.9 N pull to test stacking strength.
Press Ram for Assembly
Press bushings into aluminum housings on an assembly line, using the 5497.8 N push at 0.7 MPa for reliable insertion.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X100B the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duty, the ACE80X100 offers a 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the ACE125X100 provides a 6135.9 N push for heavier work. This 100 mm bore model fits applications needing a strong push without the bulk of a larger cylinder. Since the B code specifies a male rod thread, verify your coupling matches M12x1.75. The optional -S magnet is not fitted, so sensor mounting requires ordering that code separately.
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 ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X100B FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, push is 3927 N and pull is 3769.9 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 5497.8 N and pull is 5277.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length compared to an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits inside machine guards and compact jigs. The fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the hard-anodized aluminum body resists wear.
