The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE32X90SH 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.
This AirTAC ACE32X90SH is a double acting compact cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 90 mm stroke, delivering 402.1 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa. Its ISO 21287 short body takes up about 50% less mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight jigs and guards where a full-length unit will not.
With the optional -S magnet already fitted, this model works with CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches for reliable position sensing. For real work, plan on about 241 N (0.6 x 402.1 N) as a safe load at 0.5 MPa, or roughly 24.6 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin, so you can match it to an actual part weight.

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.
Clamp small parts in a CNC fixture with 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa. The compact body fits between vise jaws, and the fitted magnet lets a CMSE switch confirm the clamp is closed.
Drive a label applicator head on a packaging line. The 90 mm stroke and 345.6 N pull retract the head quickly, while the short body saves space above the conveyor.
Use in a small test rig to push a probe against a component. The 563 N push at 0.7 MPa provides extra force when needed, and the TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact.
For a lighter duty, the ACE25X90 offers 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the ACE40X90 gives 628.3 N push for heavier loads. This ACE32X90SH suits medium-force automation where space is tight and sensor feedback is needed. Since the magnet is fitted, pair it with CMSE or DMSE switches; for mounting, choose FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, or SDB pivot brackets. Remember, this cylinder does not hold its position if air pressure is lost - use a rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push is 402.1 N and pull 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. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with proof pressure at 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The ACE32X90SH body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight spaces. It has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends for deceleration, and the optional -S magnet allows CMSE or DMSE switches for position sensing. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, and SDB pivot.
