The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X275S is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 275mm 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 ACE100X275S is a double acting compact cylinder that uses air to both extend and retract its 20 mm rod. With a 100 mm bore it delivers 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, which is enough to handle heavy clamping or pressing tasks in a machine frame.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight guarding and gantry sections where a longer cylinder will not. The optional -S magnet is fitted here, so CMSE or DMSE switches can be mounted to confirm rod position. For a real workload, plan on about 2356 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa, which means it can lift roughly 240 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

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 force to clamp thick steel plates in a CNC milling fixture, holding parts securely during multi-axis machining.
In a small hydraulic press, this cylinder can lift a 200 kg platen vertically with a safety margin, using the 275 mm stroke to clear the work area.
Mount on a packaging conveyor to divert heavy cartons, using the 1/4" port for quick response and the CMSE switch to confirm the gate position.
When sizing this ACE100X275S, compare it with the ACE80X275S which pushes 2513 N at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the ACE125X275S for 6136 N of push force. The 275 mm stroke suits applications that need a long reach but still fit in a compact envelope. Since this model has the -S magnet, you can add CMSE or DMSE sensors for position feedback; without the -S code, no magnet is present. For mounting, use FA or FB flanges, LB foot brackets, or CA/CB clevises that bolt directly to the ISO 21287 face.
Quick checklist
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. The operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
The magnet is an optional feature, but this ACE100X275S model includes the -S code, so the magnet is fitted. This allows you to mount CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches for position sensing. Without the -S code, no magnet is present, and sensors cannot be used.
