Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X30
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X30 is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 30mm 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 ACE32X30
This AirTAC ACE32X30 is a double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, with a 32 mm bore and a 30 mm stroke. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, letting it fit into tight machine guarding and compact jigs where a full-length unit will not.
At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 402.1 N and pulls with 345.6 N, so a practical rule is to plan for about 241 N of real work, which lifts roughly 24.6 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs impact, and the optional -S magnet is not fitted here, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be mounted unless you order the -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 ACE32X30 Is Used
Fixture Clamping
Use in a CNC fixture to clamp small aluminium parts during drilling. The 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa holds parts firmly, and the short body fits under a low-profile workholding tower.
Carton Tabbing
Drive a tab-folding mechanism on a carton erector. The 30 mm stroke cycles at up to 500 mm/s to fold flaps quickly, while the TPU bumper prevents noisy end-of-stroke impact.
Divert Stop
Actuate a stop pin on a light conveyor line to divert small boxes. The 345.6 N pull retracts the pin reliably, and the compact body mounts beside the conveyor frame without protruding.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X30 the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duty in the same compact family, the ACE25X30 with a 25 mm bore pushes 245.4 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the ACE40X30 gives 628.3 N push for heavier clamping. This 32 mm bore is a balanced middle choice for moderate force in a short envelope.
Since this model has no magnet, it suits applications without position sensing. If you need sensor feedback, order the ACE32X30S instead. Mounting options like FA/FB flanges or LB foot brackets bolt directly to the ISO 21287 face, and the M8x1.25 female rod thread accepts standard attachments.
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 ACE32X30 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).
It follows ISO 21287, a compact standard that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The body is hard-anodized aluminium with a hard-chrome plated S45C rod. It has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends, not an adjustable cushion, and operates at 30-500 mm/s.
