Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X10B
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X10B is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 10mm 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 ACE100X10B
This AirTAC ACE100X10B is a double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, with a 100 mm bore and a 10 mm stroke. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight machine frames and guarding where a full-length actuator will not.
At 0.5 MPa this unit pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 3769.9 N, so it can drive heavy clamping or pressing actions in a compact envelope. For a real-world guide, plan on about 240 kg of safe vertical lifting at 0.5 MPa when you apply a 2:1 margin, and remember this is a fixed TPU bumper design, not an adjustable air cushion. The male rod thread (B code) lets you bolt on custom tooling directly.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACE-series (ISO 21287) datasheet. Body: hard-anodized aluminium alloy; piston rod: S45C carbon steel with hard-chrome plating. 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 (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3770 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | 5278 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X10B Is Used
Die Stamping Press
Use the 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa to drive a small stamping die in a compact press frame, where the short ISO 21287 body saves valuable vertical space.
Conveyor Stop Gate
Mount this cylinder to raise a stop gate on a packaging line. The 10 mm stroke is enough to block or release cartons, and the male rod thread simplifies attaching a custom paddle.
Clamping Fixture
In a CNC workholding fixture, the ACE100X10B delivers strong clamping force with a short stroke, letting you secure large parts without a bulky cylinder protruding from the fixture.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X10B the Right Cylinder?
Choose the ACE100X10B when you need a high-force, short-stroke actuator for a confined space. For lighter work, the ACE80X10 offers 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the ACE125X10 steps up to 6135.9 N push at 0.5 MPa if you need more muscle. This model has no magnet, so it cannot be used with CMSE or DMSE sensors unless you order the optional -S version.
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 ACE100X10B 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. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with proof pressure at 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
No. The ACE100X10B is a double acting cylinder with a fixed TPU bumper at both ends, but the bumper only absorbs end-of-stroke impact. It does not lock or hold a load in position. If you need to hold a load when air is lost, use an external rod lock or a pilot check valve.
