The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X50 is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 50mm 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 ACE32X50 is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 50 mm stroke. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight jigs and guards where a full-length unit will not. The S45C steel rod is hard-chrome plated, and a fixed TPU bumper absorbs energy at both ends of travel.
At 0.5 MPa the push force is 402.1 N and the pull is 345.6 N, so plan for roughly 24.6 kgf of usable work when you apply a 2:1 safety margin to the push rating. The 1/8" port keeps air flow adequate for speeds up to 500 mm/s. This model has no magnet, so order the optional -S code if you need to fit CMSE or DMSE switches later.

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 ACE32X50 to clamp small parts in a CNC fixture where the short body clears the spindle guard. The 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa holds aluminum blanks firmly during light milling.
Mount this cylinder on a packaging conveyor to divert cartons into a reject lane. The 50 mm stroke moves a lightweight diverter arm quickly, and the fixed TPU bumper prevents end-of-stroke shock.
In a quality lab, the ACE32X50 pushes a test probe against a component with a controlled force. The double acting design retracts the probe positively, and the compact body fits inside a benchtop test frame.
For a lighter load, the ACE25X50 with a 25 mm bore delivers 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the ACE40X50 steps up to 628.3 N push for heavier work. This 32 mm bore suits mid-range automation tasks where space is limited. Since the ACE32X50 has no magnet, choose the -S variant if you plan to add position sensors. Mounting options include FA/FB flanges, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, and SDB pivot brackets that bolt directly to the ISO 21287 face.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the push force is 402.1 N and the pull is 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa the push rises to 563 N and the pull to 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
Only if you order the -S option, which adds the magnet. Without the -S code, there is no magnet and no sensor can be fitted. With -S, you can use CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches. The body has slots around it for switch mounting.
