Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X45
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X45 is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 45mm 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 ACE32X45
This AirTAC ACE32X45 is a double acting compact cylinder with a 32 mm bore and a 45 mm stroke, delivering 402.1 N of push force and 345.6 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. Its ISO 21287 short 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.
At 0.5 MPa, a practical safe working load is about 241 N, which means it can lift roughly 25 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome plated rod resist wear in high-cycle automation, and the fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke impact for quiet, reliable operation.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X45 Is Used
Fixture Clamping
Clamp small parts in a CNC vise or a custom jig on a machining center, using the 402.1 N push force at 0.5 MPa to hold components securely during drilling or milling operations.
Carton Tabbing
Push a tab or flap on a cardboard carton in a packaging line, where the compact body fits between conveyor rails and the 45 mm stroke provides quick, repeatable motion.
Diverting Small Parts
Actuate a diverter gate on a conveyor to sort small electronic components or fasteners, using the 345.6 N pull force to retract the gate and the short stroke for fast cycling.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X45 the Right Cylinder?
For a lighter duty, consider the ACE25X45 with a 25 mm bore that pushes 245.4 N at 0.5 MPa, while the ACE40X45 with a 40 mm bore pushes 628.3 N at the same pressure. This 32 mm bore is a balanced choice for medium-force pick-and-place tasks on a compact footprint. Since this model has no magnet, order the -S option if you need to mount CMSE or DMSE sensors for position feedback; without -S, no sensor can be fitted. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, and FTC brackets, all compatible with the ISO 21287 face.
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 ACE32X45 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 is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. These figures are based on the official AirTAC datasheet for the 32 mm bore.
Yes, it is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder, with a body about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. However, this model does not include a magnet, so you cannot mount CMSE or DMSE sensors unless you order the optional -S code, which adds the magnet for sensor detection.
