Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X300B
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X300B is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 300mm 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.

About the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X300B
This AirTAC ACE100X300B is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 300 mm stroke, delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight machine frames and guarding where a full-length cylinder will not.
The male rod thread (B code) simplifies attachment of custom tooling, and the fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke impact for reliable cycling. With no -S code, this unit has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be fitted; order the optional -S magnet if position sensing is needed. For a 2:1 safety margin, plan to lift about 200 kg vertically with this cylinder at 0.5 MPa, not the full 3927 N rating.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X300B Is Used
Press Fit Assembly
Use in a benchtop press for inserting bearings into housings, where the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa provides ample pressure and the short body fits under a guarding hood.
Conveyor Stop Gate
Mount on a packaging line to raise and lower a stop gate for cartons, using the 300 mm stroke to clear tall products and the compact body to fit between conveyor sections.
Clamping Fixture
Power a swing clamp in a CNC machining fixture, where the 3769.9 N pull force at 0.5 MPa holds workpieces securely and the male rod thread allows a custom clamp arm.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X300B the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duty, the ACE80X300 offers 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the ACE125X300 steps up to 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa for heavier loads. This 100 mm bore unit suits applications needing a balance of force and compactness, but remember it is double acting only and will not hold a load when air pressure is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check valve for position holding.
With a 1/4" PT port and a maximum standard stroke of 300 mm, this model is at its stroke limit, so confirm the required stroke is exactly 300 mm before ordering. The male rod thread and standard ISO 21287 mounting faces (FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, FTC) make it easy to integrate into existing fixtures.
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 ACE100X300B FAQ
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), with proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
No, this unit does not have the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches cannot be mounted. To use sensors, you must order the cylinder with the -S code, which adds the magnet. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke impact but does not provide adjustable cushioning.
