The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE125X60 is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 60mm 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 ACE125X60 is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 125 mm bore and a 60 mm stroke. It delivers a powerful 6135.9 N push force at 0.5 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty pushing tasks in tight spaces.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, saving valuable mounting length. With a fixed TPU bumper at both ends, it absorbs end-of-stroke energy. For a safe working load, plan for about 3682 N (or 375 kg vertically) at 0.5 MPa, not the full rating.

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 | 6136 N | 5890 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 8590 N | 8247 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

|---|---|
| 125 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×60 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSE / DMSE sensors (omit for no magnet). |
| B | Rod type: B = male thread; blank = female thread. |
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 in a press-fit station for inserting steel bushings into cast iron housings, leveraging the 6135.9 N push force at 0.5 MPa.
Ideal for clamping large automotive body panels in a welding fixture, where the compact body fits under the tooling and the high force holds parts securely.
Mount on a gantry to lift a 300 kg tooling plate vertically, using the 5890.5 N pull force at 0.5 MPa with a 2:1 safety margin.
For a smaller option, consider the ACE100X60 with a 3927.0 N push at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the ACE125X60 for maximum force in this compact family. This model uses a 1/4" port and has a female M16x2.0 rod thread. Since this is the base model without the -S code, there is no magnet for sensors; order the -S version if you need to mount CMSE or DMSE switches. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, and more, all compatible with the ISO 21287 face.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 6135.9 N and the pull force is 5890.5 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 8590.3 N and pull is 8246.7 N. The theoretical maximum force is 1251.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length compared to an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, allowing it to fit in tight jigs and guards. It has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends for energy absorption, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE or DMSE sensors for position detection.
