Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X90B
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X90B is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 90mm 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 ACE32X90B
This AirTAC ACE32X90B is a double acting compact cylinder that uses air to both extend and retract its 12 mm rod. With a 32 mm bore it delivers 402.1 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, so it suits light assembly and clamping tasks where a full-size cylinder would be overkill.
The ISO 21287 body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which lets it fit inside tight machine guards or between narrow guide rails. Because this unit has no -S code, it has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be fitted unless you order the optional magnet version. The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod resist wear in continuous cycling, and the fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke impact without needing adjustment.

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 ACE32X90B Is Used
Fixture Clamping
Use in a CNC fixture to clamp small aluminum parts during drilling. The 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa holds the workpiece firmly, and the short body fits under the spindle without obstructing tool changes.
Carton Tabbing
On a packaging line, this cylinder extends to fold and tab the flaps of a 300 mm carton. The 90 mm stroke matches the flap depth, and the fixed bumper prevents jarring at high cycle rates up to 500 mm/s.
Guard Door Interlock
Mount on a machine guard to push a locking pin into a bracket. The compact body saves space along the guard frame, and the male rod thread connects to a custom pin adapter. The 345.6 N pull retracts the pin reliably.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X90B the Right Cylinder?
For a lighter push, the ACE25X90 delivers 245.4 N at 0.5 MPa, while the ACE40X90 steps up to 628.3 N if you need more force in the same compact footprint. This 90 mm stroke is within the 200 mm maximum standard stroke for the 32 mm bore, so it ships as a standard item.
Since the rod end is male (B code), you can bolt on a rod clevis or knuckle directly. The 1/8" port accepts standard fittings. Remember, a plain ACE does not hold its position if air pressure drops, so for vertical lifting or load holding, add a rod lock or pilot check valve.
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 ACE32X90B FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, push is 402.1 N and pull is 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, push rises to 563 N and pull to 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf. These figures assume clean, dry air filtered to 40 um.
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 the covers threaded on, and the fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs impact. This model has no magnet, so order the -S version if you need to mount CMSE or DMSE sensors.
