About the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X175S
This AirTAC ACE100X175S is a double acting compact cylinder that delivers 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a strong choice for heavy automation tasks. Its ISO 21287 short body takes up about half the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight machine frames and guarding where a longer unit will not go.
The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome plated rod resist wear in continuous cycling. With the -S magnet fitted, you can mount CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches for reliable position sensing. For a real-world load, plan on about 240 kg of usable vertical lift at 0.5 MPa, which gives you a safe 2:1 margin over the theoretical 3927 N rating.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X175S Is Used
Press Ram for Small Parts
Use the 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa to drive a manual press for stamping or forming small metal brackets. The compact body fits under a bench-mounted frame, and the 175 mm stroke gives enough travel for loading and unloading parts.
Conveyor Stop Gate
Position this cylinder at a conveyor junction to raise a stop gate that diverts boxes. The 100 mm bore provides the force to move a heavy gate, while the short stroke and compact body mount easily alongside the conveyor frame.
Carton Pusher in Packing Line
Mount this cylinder horizontally to push filled cartons off a packing station onto a takeaway conveyor. The 3769.9 N pull force retracts the pusher quickly, and the 175 mm stroke clears the full carton width before the next one arrives.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X175S the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duty, the ACE80X175 offers 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the ACE125X175 steps up to 6135.9 N if you need more force in the same compact footprint. This 100 mm bore model with a 175 mm stroke suits applications that require a strong push in a confined space, and the 1/4" port delivers ample flow for fast cycling.
Since this unit has the optional -S magnet, you can add CMSE or DMSE sensors for end-of-stroke detection. The female M12x1.75 rod thread accepts standard clevis or rod-end accessories. Remember, this cylinder does not hold its position if air pressure is lost, so use a rod lock or pilot check valve for any load that must stay put.
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 ACE100X175S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3769.9 N. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 5497.8 N and pull to 5277.9 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 800.9 kgf. These figures are based on the 100 mm bore and 20 mm rod, and assume clean, dry air within the 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) operating range.
The ISO 21287 compact body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it saves valuable space in tight machinery. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs energy at the end of each stroke, reducing noise and impact. It is not an adjustable cushion, and it does not lock or hold a load. For position holding, you need an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
