The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X175B is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 175mm 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.
This AirTAC ACE100X175B is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 175 mm stroke, delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome plated rod are built for repetitive automation cycles, while the fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs impact energy.
Because the ISO 21287 short body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, this model fits into tight guarding and gantry assemblies where a full-length cylinder would not. For a real-world load estimate, plan for roughly 240 kg of safe vertical work at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 times the 3927 N rating), which gives you a practical margin for jigs and tooling. The male rod thread (B code) simplifies direct coupling, and the 1/4" port suits standard shop air lines.

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.
| 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.

ACE-family variants: ACE (double acting), ASE / ATE (single acting push / pull), ACED (double rod), ACEJ (adjustable stroke), TACE / TACED (non-rotating twin-guide yoke). Mounting accessories: FA / FB flange, LB foot, CA / CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, FTC; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G.
Use the 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa to press bearing sleeves into aluminum housings on an assembly line, with the 175 mm stroke allowing clearance for part loading and ejection.
Mount on a conveyor to tamp and square corrugated cartons before strapping. The compact body fits under existing guard rails, and the fixed TPU bumper prevents product damage at cycle end.
In a CNC machining cell, this cylinder clamps a steel bracket during drilling. The short ISO 21287 body keeps the fixture envelope small, and the male rod thread allows a custom clamp pad to be attached directly.
When sizing, compare this 100 mm bore against the 80 mm bore (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) if you need less force, or step up to the 125 mm bore (6135.9 N push at 0.5 MPa) for heavier loads. The 175 mm stroke is within the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so no special order is needed. Since this unit has no optional -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSE or DMSE sensors; order the -S code if you need position sensing. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, and FTC brackets, all compatible with the ISO 21287 face.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 3927 N and 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. Operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
No, this ACE100X175B does not have the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches cannot be mounted. If you need position sensing, you must order the cylinder with the -S code, which adds the magnet. The cylinder itself has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends and operates at 30-500 mm/s.
