About the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X125SB
This AirTAC ACE100X125SB is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 100 mm bore and a 125 mm stroke, delivering a robust 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa. Its short, hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making it ideal for tight machine frames and guarding where space is at a premium.
With the optional -S magnet already fitted, this model works with CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches for reliable position sensing. For a real-world load estimate, plan for roughly 240 kg of safe vertical lift at 0.5 MPa, which is about 60% of the theoretical rating, ensuring a proper safety margin in your application.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X125SB Is Used
Press Ram
Use as a compact press ram for stamping or forming small metal parts, where the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa is sufficient for light assembly work and the short body fits within a limited press frame.
Conveyor Stop Gate
Actuate a stop gate on a packaging conveyor line. The 125 mm stroke provides enough travel to block or release cartons, and the 3769.9 N pull force retracts the gate quickly to keep the line moving.
Clamping Fixture
Power a clamping fixture in an automotive parts assembly station. The high force and rigid construction hold components firmly during drilling or fastening, while the compact design allows multiple clamps to be mounted close together on a work pallet.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X125SB the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duty, consider the ACE80X125 with a 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the ACE125X125 for a stronger 6136 N push. This 100 mm bore model with a 125 mm stroke is a balanced choice for medium-to-heavy automation tasks. The male rod thread (B code) simplifies attachment of custom tooling, and the 1/4" port ensures good flow for fast cycle times. Remember, a plain ACE cylinder does not hold its position when air is removed; use a rod lock or pilot check valve if load holding is required.
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 ACE100X125SB FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force 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. These figures are based on the official AirTAC datasheet.
Yes, it is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder, so its body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb energy at stroke end, but this is not an adjustable cushion and does not lock the rod in place. For load holding, you need an external brake.
