Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X15H
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X15H is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 15mm 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 ACE50X15H
This ACE50X15H is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 50 mm bore and a 15 mm stroke. It delivers 981.7 N of push force and 881.2 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it a solid choice for moderate-duty automation tasks. The hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight machine frames and guarding where a full-length unit will not. The S45C piston rod is hard-chrome plated for wear resistance, and the fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke impact without needing adjustment.
For real-world sizing, plan for about 589 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which is roughly 60% of the rated push. That translates to lifting about 60 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin, so you can match it against actual part weights. The 1/8" port keeps plumbing simple, and the operating range of 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) covers most shop air supplies. This model has no magnet fitted, so it cannot accept CMSE or DMSE sensors unless you order the optional -S version.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X15H Is Used
Fixture Clamping
Use this 50 mm bore cylinder to clamp parts on a CNC milling fixture. The 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa holds aluminum workpieces securely during cutting, and the short body fits under a low-profile guard.
Package Stop Gate
Mount this cylinder on a conveyor line to raise a stop gate for cartons. The 881.2 N pull retracts the gate quickly, and the 15 mm stroke is enough to block or release boxes without taking up extra space.
Press Ram for Small Dies
In a stamping or forming press, this cylinder can drive a small die or punch. The 1374.4 N push at 0.7 MPa provides the force to form thin sheet metal, while the compact body fits into a tight press frame.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X15H the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this ACE50X15H, compare it against the ACE40X15H which pushes 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa for lighter loads, or step up to the ACE63X15H which pushes 1558.6 N when you need more force. The 50 mm bore gives a good balance of thrust and compactness for medium-sized fixtures. Remember that this plain double acting cylinder does not hold its position if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered, so for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. The fixed TPU bumper only decelerates at the ends, not a brake. Since this unit has no magnet, order the -S code if you need CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches for position sensing. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, and FTC brackets, all compatible with the ISO 21287 face.
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 ACE50X15H FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 981.7 N and the pull force is 881.2 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 1374.4 N and pull is 1233.7 N. The theoretical maximum force is 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
Yes, it is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a body about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends, not an adjustable cushion. This specific model has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be mounted unless you order the optional -S version with a built-in magnet.
