Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X100
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X100 is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/8" 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 ACE32X100
This AirTAC ACE32X100 is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 32 mm bore and a 100 mm stroke, delivering 402.1 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight machine frames and guarding where a full-length cylinder would not.
For a real-world load, plan on about 24.6 kg of safe vertical lift at 0.5 MPa, using a 2:1 margin on the theoretical force. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy, but it does not lock or hold a load; if you need position holding, add a rod lock or pilot check valve. This model has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be used unless you order the optional -S code.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X100 Is Used
Fixture Clamping
Use in a CNC fixture to clamp a 20 kg aluminum workpiece during drilling; the 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa holds it securely.
Conveyor Stop Gate
Mount on a packaging line to raise a stop gate that diverts cartons; the 100 mm stroke clears the path and the compact body fits under the conveyor frame.
Machine Guard Lock
In a robotic cell, actuate a safety guard interlock; the double acting retract pulls the guard closed with 345.6 N, and the short body saves space near the robot base.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X100 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing, compare this 32 mm bore with the 25 mm bore (245.4 N push) for lighter loads or the 40 mm bore (628.3 N push) for heavier work. At 0.5 MPa, this unit pushes with 402.1 N and pulls with 345.6 N, so it suits medium-duty clamping or indexing tasks.
With a 1/8" port and a female M8x1.25 rod thread, it mounts via FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, or FTC brackets. Since this unit has no magnet, order the -S option if you need CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches for position sensing.
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 ACE32X100 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, push is 402.1 N and pull is 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 563 N and pull is 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with proof pressure at 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The ACE32X100 body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits in tight jigs and guards. It has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends for energy absorption, but it does not lock loads. The optional -S magnet (not fitted here) enables CMSE or DMSE sensors for position feedback.
