Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X90S
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X90S 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 ACE32X90S
This ACE32X90S is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder that uses air to both extend and retract the rod, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end to soften the stop. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 402.1 N of push force, yet the short body takes up about 50% less mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slips into tight machine frames and guarding where a full-length unit will not fit.
Because the -S code is specified, this unit carries the optional magnet, letting you bolt on CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches for position sensing. For real-world sizing, plan for roughly 241 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which is about 0.6 of the rated push, or a vertical lift of around 24.6 kg with a 2:1 safety margin, so you can match it to an actual part weight without over-speccing.

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 ACE32X90S Is Used
Fixture Clamping
Mount it on a drill jig to clamp small brackets with 402.1 N of force at 0.5 MPa, freeing operator hands for precise hole placement.
Carton Tamping
Use the 90 mm stroke to gently tamp folded boxes into a carton on a packaging line, with the TPU bumper preventing product damage at the end of travel.
Part Detection Gate
Fit CMSE switches to the magnet and use the cylinder to push a gate that diverts small parts on a conveyor, confirming each cycle with the sensor signal.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X90S the Right Cylinder?
For a lighter duty, the ACE25X90S with a 25 mm bore gives 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the ACE40X90S with a 40 mm bore provides 628.3 N push for heavier clamping or pressing tasks. The 90 mm stroke fits within the 200 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a standard item with no custom lead time. Since the magnet is fitted, order CMSE or DMSE switches separately to sense the piston position, and use the 1/8" port with PT thread for your air supply. Remember that this cylinder does not hold its load when air pressure is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if you need to keep a vertical load in place.
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 ACE32X90S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the cylinder pushes with 402.1 N and pulls with 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 are for the 32 mm bore with a 12 mm rod.
It follows ISO 21287, so its body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which helps in tight spaces. The fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs impact at stroke end, but it is not adjustable and does not lock the rod. For position holding, use a separate rod lock or pilot check valve.
