About the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X10SB
This AirTAC ACE100X10SB is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder that extends and retracts its rod with air pressure, delivering a 3927 N push and 3769.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight machine frames where a full-length cylinder won't.
With its 10 mm stroke, this unit is built for short, precise movements, and the male rod thread (B code) simplifies attaching custom tooling. The optional -S magnet is fitted here, enabling CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches for reliable position sensing. For a real-world load, plan for about 240 kg of safe vertical lift at 0.5 MPa, using a 2:1 safety margin on the theoretical force.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X10SB Is Used
Die Casting Ejector
Use the ACE100X10SB in a die casting machine to eject small aluminum parts from the mold. The 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa provides enough force to break the part free, while the 10 mm stroke matches the short ejection distance, and the compact body fits between the die plates.
Conveyor Stop Gate
Mount this cylinder on a packaging conveyor to raise a stop gate that halts cartons for labeling. The 3769.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa retracts the gate quickly, and the male rod thread allows direct attachment of a custom stop plate, while the magnet lets you sense the gate position.
Press Toggle Clamp
In a stamping press, use the ACE100X10SB as a toggle clamp actuator to hold a sheet metal blank in place during a short stroke. The 10 mm stroke is perfect for a quick clamp action, and the compact body saves space around the die area, with the fixed TPU bumper absorbing the impact.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X10SB the Right Cylinder?
For a 100 mm bore, you get a strong 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, but if you need less force, the 80 mm bore offers 2513.3 N push, while the 125 mm bore steps up to 6135.9 N push at the same pressure. This 10 mm stroke is ideal for short clamping or ejection tasks, but if you need a longer reach, the max standard stroke for this bore is 300 mm, and non-standard strokes are made to order.
Mount this cylinder with FA or FB flanges, LB foot brackets, or CA/CB clevis mounts, all designed for the ISO 21287 face. Since the -S magnet is included, you can add CMSE or DMSE sensors for position feedback; without the -S code, no magnet is present. Remember, this cylinder does not hold its position when air is lost, so use a rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding.
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 ACE100X10SB FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore cylinder delivers 3927 N push and 3769.9 N pull. 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 operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), and the proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The ACE100X10SB has a short body that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits in confined jigs and guards. It has a hard-anodized aluminum body and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends, which absorbs end-of-stroke energy but does not provide adjustable cushioning or load holding. The -S magnet is fitted, allowing CMSE or DMSE switches for position sensing.
