Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE25X5
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE25X5 is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 5mm 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.

About the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE25X5
This AirTAC ACE25X5 is a double acting compact cylinder with a 25 mm bore and a 5 mm stroke, delivering 245.4 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its short ISO 21287 body takes up about half the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making it a fit for tight spaces. The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod resist wear in continuous cycling.
For a 2:1 safety margin, plan to lift about 12.5 kg vertically with this unit at 0.5 MPa, based on its 245.4 N push. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke impact, but it does not hold a load if air pressure is lost. This model has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be used unless you order the optional -S version.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE25X5 Is Used
Tight Jig Clamping
Use the ACE25X5 to clamp small workpieces in a CNC fixture where the short body fits under a guard, applying 245.4 N to hold parts during drilling.
Label Applicator Press
Drive a label applicator head in a packaging line with a 5 mm stroke to press labels onto cartons, cycling at up to 500 mm/s for quick production.
Valve Actuation
Actuate a small pneumatic valve or limit switch in an automated assembly cell, using the compact size to fit within a control cabinet.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE25X5 the Right Cylinder?
For a lighter load, consider the ACE20X5 with 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the ACE32X5 for 402.1 N push. The 5 mm stroke suits short indexing or clamping tasks where space is minimal. This unit has a female M6x1.0 rod thread and an M5x0.8 port, and it operates on filtered air from 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). If you need position sensing, order the ACE25X5S to get the optional magnet for CMSE or DMSE switches.
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 ACE25X5 FAQ
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 is 50.1 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 ACE25X5 has a short body that saves about 50% of the mounting length compared to an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits in tight jigs and guards. It has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb impact, but it does not provide adjustable cushioning or load holding. The body is hard-anodized aluminium with an S45C hard-chrome rod for durability.
