Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X30
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X30 is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 30mm 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 ACE50X30
The ACE50X30 is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 50 mm bore and a 30 mm stroke, delivering 981.7 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome plated rod are built for repeated cycling in tight spaces, and the fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs impact without adjustment.
Because the body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, this model fits inside machine guards and compact jigs where a full-length cylinder will not. At 0.5 MPa, a safe working rule is to plan for about 589 N of real force, which lifts roughly 60 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin, so you can match it against actual part weights before ordering.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X30 Is Used
Fixture Clamping
Use the ACE50X30 to clamp sheet metal parts in a CNC drilling fixture, where its 981.7 N push holds the workpiece firmly during a 30 mm clamp stroke.
Carton Tamping
In a packaging line, this cylinder tamps folded cartons into a case with a quick 30 mm stroke, relying on the fixed TPU bumper to prevent product damage at cycle rates up to 500 mm/s.
Guard Door Interlock
Mount the ACE50X30 on a machine guard door to push a locking pin into place, using its compact body to fit within the guard frame and its 881.2 N pull to retract the pin reliably.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X30 the Right Cylinder?
For a lighter duty, the ACE40X30 offers 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the ACE63X30 gives 1558.6 N push for heavier clamping. The 1/8" port suits standard fittings, and the female M10x1.5 rod thread accepts common attachments. This model has no magnet, so order the -S code if you need to mount CMSE or DMSE sensors; without -S, no sensor can be fitted.
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 ACE50X30 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. Operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The ACE50X30's body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it mounts in confined areas like machine guards or gantries. It uses a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb end-of-stroke impact, and you can order the optional -S magnet to enable CMSE or DMSE sensors for position detection.
