The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE25X55B is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 55mm 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 ACE25X55B is a double acting compact cylinder with a 25 mm bore and 55 mm stroke, delivering 245.4 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome plated rod are built for repeated cycles in tight automation cells.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits inside guard doors and compact jigs. With a male rod thread (B code) and M5x0.8 port, it connects directly to standard fixtures. For a real workload, plan around 147 N (about 15 kg) at 0.5 MPa for a 2:1 safety margin, not the full rated force.

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 in a CNC fixture to clamp small aluminium parts with 245.4 N push force, fitting within a 50% shorter envelope than a profile cylinder.
Drive a tab-folding mechanism on a packaging line at speeds up to 500 mm/s, with the M5x0.8 port simplifying air line routing.
Mount on a machine guard to push a safety latch into place, relying on the fixed TPU bumper to absorb end-of-stroke impact.
Choose this ACE25X55B when you need a 55 mm stroke in a space-constrained layout. For lighter duty, the ACE20X55 offers 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the ACE32X55 gives 402.1 N push at the same pressure. This model has no magnet, so it cannot accept CMSE or DMSE sensors; order the -S version if you need position sensing.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 245.4 N and 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. Operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
No, this ACE25X55B does not include the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches cannot be mounted. If you need position sensing, order the ACE25X55SB version with the built-in magnet. The fixed TPU bumper only decelerates at stroke ends, it does not hold loads.
