The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X80S is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 80mm 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 ACE32X80S is a double acting compact cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 80 mm stroke, delivering 402.1 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its ISO 21287 short body cuts mounting length by about half compared to an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight machine frames and guarding where a longer unit will not.
The hard-anodized aluminium body resists wear, and the S45C steel rod with hard-chrome plating stands up to repeated cycling. The optional -S magnet is fitted here, enabling CMSE or DMSE switches for position sensing. For real work, plan on roughly 24.6 kgf of usable force at 0.5 MPa, which safely lifts about 12 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

| 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.
Mount this 32 mm bore unit in a CNC fixture to clamp small parts with 402.1 N of force at 0.5 MPa, freeing operators for loading and unloading.
Use the 80 mm stroke to raise a stop gate on a packaging line, diverting cartons weighing up to 12 kg with a safe margin at 0.5 MPa.
Install behind a machine guard to slide a locking pin into place, using the compact body to fit within the slim profile of the safety enclosure.
Size this ACE32X80S against a smaller 25 mm bore that pushes 245.4 N, or step up to a 40 mm bore for 628.3 N at the same pressure. The 80 mm stroke suits short-transfer and clamping tasks, while the 1/8" port keeps plumbing simple. Since this unit has the -S magnet, pair it with CMSE or DMSE switches for reliable end-of-stroke detection. Remember, a plain ACE does not hold its load when air is removed, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the application requires position holding.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 402.1 N and pull force is 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, push rises to 563.0 N and pull to 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf. These numbers assume clean, dry air within the 0.15-1.0 MPa operating range.
The ACE32X80S has a short body that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making it ideal for tight spaces. It uses a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb impact, and the optional -S magnet allows CMSE or DMSE switches for position feedback. The body is hard-anodized aluminium for durability.
