The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE25X60 is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 60mm 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 ACE25X60 is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 25 mm bore and 60 mm stroke, delivering 245.4 N of push 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.
At 0.5 MPa, the pull force is 206.2 N, and the theoretical maximum force reaches 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For a real-world application, plan for a safe working load of about 147 N (roughly 15 kg) at 0.5 MPa, which is 0.6 times the push force, ensuring reliable operation without overloading the cylinder. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke impact, and the hard-anodized aluminium body with a hard-chrome S45C rod ensures durability.

| 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 this 25 mm bore cylinder to clamp small parts in a CNC vise or fixture, applying 245.4 N of force to hold components securely during drilling or milling operations.
Drive a tab-folding mechanism on a packaging line, where the 60 mm stroke and 206.2 N pull force are enough to fold and seal carton flaps at speeds up to 500 mm/s.
Actuate a stop gate on a light conveyor system, using the compact body to fit under the conveyor frame and the 245.4 N push force to divert or hold products temporarily.
When sizing, compare this 25 mm bore with the smaller 20 mm bore (157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa) for lighter tasks, or the larger 32 mm bore (402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa) for heavier loads. This 60 mm stroke is within the 150 mm max standard stroke for this bore, so it is a standard model. Note that this cylinder does not hold position when air is lost; for a held load, consider a rod lock or pilot check valve. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, and FTC brackets, all compatible with the ISO 21287 face. The optional -S magnet is not fitted here, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be used unless you order the -S version.
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 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 ACE25X60 has a short body that saves about 50% of the mounting length compared to an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight spaces like guard enclosures or gantries. It uses a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb impact, and the hard-anodized aluminium body with a hard-chrome rod resists wear. The optional -S magnet is not included, so order it if you need CMSE or DMSE sensors.
