About the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X100B
This AirTAC ACE32X100B is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder that extends and retracts its 12 mm rod with air pressure on both strokes. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 402.1 N of push force and 345.6 N of pull force, making it a solid choice for light assembly and clamping tasks in tight spaces.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into compact jigs and guarded machinery where a full-length cylinder will not. With a 100 mm stroke and a male rod thread (B code), it mounts directly to standard fixtures using FA/FB flange, LB foot, or CA/CB clevis brackets. For a safe working load, plan for about 241 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 25 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X100B Is Used
Compact Jig Clamping
Use the ACE32X100B to clamp small parts in a CNC fixture where the short ISO 21287 body fits under a guard, applying 402 N of force to hold components securely during drilling or milling.
Pneumatic Stop Gate
Mount this cylinder on a conveyor line to raise a stop gate that diverts lightweight boxes. The 100 mm stroke provides enough travel to block or release products, while the male rod thread accepts a custom pusher pad.
Assembly Line Pusher
In an electronics assembly station, this cylinder pushes a component into a nest for soldering or screw driving. The 345.6 N pull force retracts the rod quickly, keeping cycle times short and repeatable.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X100B the Right Cylinder?
For a lighter duty application, the ACE25X100 offers 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the ACE40X100 provides 628.3 N push for heavier loads. This ACE32X100B sits in the middle, balancing force and size for medium-duty automation tasks. The male rod thread simplifies attachment of custom tooling or rod-end accessories. Note that this model has no magnet, so it cannot be used with CMSE or DMSE sensors; order the -S code if you need position sensing. The fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact but does not hold a load if air pressure is lost, so use a rod lock or pilot check valve for vertical applications.
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 ACE32X100B FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402.1 N and the pull force is 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 563 N and pull to 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf. These values are based on the official AirTAC datasheet for the 32 mm bore.
Yes, it is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body that is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. However, this model has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be mounted. You must order the -S version (ACE32X100BS) to get the optional magnet for sensor compatibility.
