The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE25X70B is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm 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 ACE25X70B is a double acting compact cylinder that uses air to both extend and retract its 10 mm rod, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end to soften the stop. Its 25 mm bore delivers 245.4 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, so it suits light assembly and clamping tasks where space is tight.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which lets it fit into compact jigs and guarded zones. Since this version has no -S code, it has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be fitted unless you order the optional -S magnet. For a real workload, plan on about 147 N (roughly 15 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 safety margin) rather than the full rating, and note that the male rod thread (B) simplifies direct coupling to fixtures.

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 | 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 245.4 N push to clamp small plastic or aluminum parts in a benchtop fixture, where the short body fits under a guard without protruding.
Drive a light label applicator head with 70 mm of stroke to press labels onto boxes, relying on the fixed TPU bumper to prevent jarring at the end of each cycle.
Actuate a small stop gate on a parts conveyor, using the 206.2 N pull force to retract the rod and clear the path for lightweight components.
For a lighter duty, the ACE20X70 offers 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the ACE32X70 gives 402.1 N push, so you can match the force to your actual part weight. This 70 mm stroke is within the 150 mm maximum standard stroke for the 25 mm bore, so it ships as a standard item. The male rod thread (B) and PT port thread are fixed, and the M5x0.8 port suits small-bore air lines. Remember that a plain ACE does not hold its position if air pressure is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for any load that must stay put.
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 ISO 21287 design uses a short, hard-anodized aluminium body that is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits in tight spaces. This model has no magnet because it lacks the -S code, so CMSE or DMSE switches cannot be mounted. To use sensors, you must order the version with the optional -S magnet, which adds a built-in magnet for switch detection.
