Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X30B
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X30B 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 ACE50X30B
This AirTAC ACE50X30B is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder that extends and retracts its 16 mm hard-chrome rod with air on both strokes. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 981.7 N of push force and 881.2 N of pull force, which is ample for clamping or pressing tasks in a 50 mm bore envelope.
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight jigs and guards where a full-length cylinder will not. With a 30 mm stroke, it lifts about 60 kg vertically at 0.5 MPa with a 2:1 safety margin (981.7 N divided by 9.81 then halved), making it a practical choice for light lifting fixtures. The fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact, and the hard-anodized aluminium body resists wear in continuous cycling.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X30B Is Used
Jig Clamping
Use in a CNC fixture to clamp a 50 mm workpiece with 981.7 N force at 0.5 MPa, holding it securely during drilling or milling operations.
Carton Press
In a packaging line, this cylinder presses down on cardboard cartons to fold flaps, using its 30 mm stroke and 881.2 N pull force for retraction.
Light Lift Assist
Mount on a gantry to lift a 60 kg component vertically with a 2:1 safety margin, leveraging the 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa in a compact space.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X30B 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 loads. This ACE50X30B has a male rod thread (B code) for direct coupling to linkages, and the 1/8" port suits standard fittings. The optional -S magnet is not fitted here, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be mounted unless you order the -S version. 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 ACE50X30B FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 981.7 N and 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 proof pressure at 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
It follows ISO 21287, so its body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder of the same bore. This saves mounting space in tight fixtures. It has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb impact, and the optional -S magnet (not included here) enables CMSE or DMSE sensors for position detection.
