The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE20X70B is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 70mm stroke, M5×0.8 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 ACE20X70B is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 20 mm bore and a 70 mm stroke, delivering a 157.1 N push force and a 117.8 N pull force at 0.5 MPa. Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making it ideal for tight automation cells where space is at a premium.
The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome plated rod resist wear in continuous cycling. With a fixed TPU bumper at both ends, it absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and its male rod thread (B code) simplifies attachment. For a safe working load, plan for about 94 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting roughly 9.6 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.

| 0.7 MPa | 220 N | 165 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 32 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 in a small assembly fixture to clamp a 20 mm wide component during a screw-driving operation, where the 70 mm stroke fits within tight guard rails.
Drive a labeling head to press labels onto small cartons in a packaging line, leveraging the 157.1 N push force at 0.5 MPa for consistent contact.
Mount on a CNC machine to eject finished parts from a vice, using the 70 mm stroke to push parts clear of the work area without taking up extra space.
For lighter indexing tasks, consider the ACE16X70 with a 100.5 N push force, while the ACE25X70 offers a stronger 245.4 N push if your application needs more thrust. This ACE20X70B has no magnet fitted, so it cannot be used with CMSE or DMSE sensors unless you order the optional -S version. The M5x0.8 port suits small-bore pneumatic circuits, and the male rod thread provides a direct mounting point for tooling.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 157.1 N and the pull force is 117.8 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 219.9 N and pull is 164.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The ACE20X70B has a short body that is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into confined spaces like inside guarding or between machine frames. It uses a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb impact, and the optional -S magnet version is needed if you want to mount CMSE or DMSE sensors for position detection.
