The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X25S is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 25mm 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.
This AirTAC ACE32X25S is a double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, with a 32 mm bore and a 25 mm stroke. Its fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs impact, while the hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod resist wear in repetitive cycles. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 402.1 N push and 345.6 N pull, so plan for about 24 kg of safe vertical lifting (using a 0.6 factor on the push rating) to match real part weights.
The short ISO 21287 body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making it ideal for tight jigs and guards. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted directly; without the -S code, no magnet is present. The 1/8" port and M8x1.25 female rod thread suit standard fittings, and the 25 mm stroke is well within the 200 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore.

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.
| 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.

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 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa to clamp small parts in a CNC vise or drill jig, where the compact body fits under a guard.
Drive a label applicator head with a 25 mm stroke in a packaging line, using the CMSE switch to confirm each cycle.
Actuate a test probe in a quality-control station, relying on the fixed TPU bumper to stop gently at both ends.
For a lighter duty, the ACE25X25 offers 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the ACE40X25 gives 628.3 N push for heavier loads. Since this is a double acting cylinder, air both extends and retracts the rod, but it does not hold position when air is lost or the valve is centered; use a rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding. The fitted -S magnet enables CMSE or DMSE sensors for position feedback, and mounting options like FA/FB flanges, LB foot, or CA/CB clevis bolt directly to the ISO 21287 face.
Quick checklist
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. The operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), and speed is 30-500 mm/s.
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, fitting into tight spaces. The fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the optional -S magnet allows CMSE or DMSE switches for position sensing. Mounting brackets like FA, LB, or CA attach directly to the ISO 21287 face.
