The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE25X25S is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 25mm 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 ACE25X25S is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 25 mm bore and 25 mm stroke. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight automation frames where a full-length unit will not. The rod is 10 mm S45C steel with hard-chrome plating, and the port is M5x0.8.
At 0.5 MPa this model pushes with 245.4 N and pulls with 206.2 N, so it handles light clamping and indexing jobs with ease. Because the -S magnet is fitted, you can mount CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches for position sensing. For a real part, plan on lifting about 15 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin, or about 25 kg if you use the full theoretical force at 1.0 MPa.

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 | 245 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 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 245 N push force to clamp small parts in a CNC vise or fixture, with the short body fitting under a machine guard where a longer cylinder would not fit.
Mount this cylinder on a packaging conveyor to raise a stop gate for diverting boxes. The 25 mm stroke is enough to block or release items, and the optional magnet lets you confirm the gate position.
In a small bench press for inserting bushings or pins, the 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa provides controlled force. The compact body saves space on a crowded workbench, and the fixed bumper reduces end-of-stroke noise.
Choose this 25 mm bore when you need around 245 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If your application needs less, the 20 mm bore delivers 157.1 N push; if you need more headroom, step up to the 32 mm bore which provides 402.1 N push at the same pressure. The 25 mm stroke suits short transfer or pressing moves, and the fixed TPU bumper at both ends handles speeds from 30 to 500 mm/s.
Since the magnet is already fitted, you can add CMSE or DMSE sensors without any cylinder modification. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, and FTC brackets, all matching the ISO 21287 face. Remember that this cylinder is double acting, so it will not hold its position if air pressure is lost; use a rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 245.4 N and the pull force is 206.2 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 343.6 N and pull is 288.6 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 50.1 kgf. These figures assume clean, dry air at the specified pressure.
The -S code means the magnet is fitted on this specific model, so you can mount CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches for position sensing. On ACE cylinders without the -S code, the magnet is not included and sensors cannot be used. The body is ISO 21287 compact, about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and uses a fixed TPU bumper at both ends.
