Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X100SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X100SB 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 ACE32X100SB
This AirTAC ACE32X100SB is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 100 mm stroke, delivering 402.1 N push and 345.6 N pull 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 unit will not. The S45C steel rod is hard-chrome plated and has a male thread (B code), and the fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs impact without adjustable cushioning.
For real-world sizing, plan for roughly 241 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which is about 0.6 times the rated push force. That translates to lifting about 25 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin, so you can match it to a specific part weight. The optional -S magnet is fitted on this model, allowing CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches to mount directly on the body for position sensing.

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 ACE32X100SB Is Used
Fixture Clamping
Use the 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa to clamp small parts in a CNC vise or workholding fixture, where the short body clears the spindle and tool changer.
Carton Ejection
In a packaging line, this 100 mm stroke cylinder can push finished cartons off a conveyor onto a chute, with the male rod thread simplifying attachment of a pusher plate.
Guard Door Interlock
Mount this compact cylinder on a machine guard door to actuate a latch or interlock pin, using the optional -S magnet with a DMSE switch to confirm the door is closed.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X100SB the Right Cylinder?
Compare this 32 mm bore to a smaller 25 mm bore (245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa) if your load is light, or step up to a 40 mm bore (628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa) for nearly 60% more force. The 100 mm stroke is within the 200 mm standard maximum for this bore, so it is a stocked size. Since the -S magnet is fitted, you can add CMSE or DMSE switches for end-of-stroke detection, but note that this cylinder will not hold a load when air pressure is lost - use a rod lock or pilot check valve for that.
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 ACE32X100SB 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 is 563 N and pull is 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), and speed range is 30-500 mm/s.
The magnet is an optional -S feature, and this model has it fitted, so you can mount CMSE or DMSE switches. The ISO 21287 body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, saving space in tight installations. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs impact, but it does not lock the load - use a rod lock for holding.
