About the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X30S
This AirTAC ACE50X30S is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 50 mm bore and 30 mm stroke. It delivers a 981.7 N push force at 0.5 MPa, so it suits medium-duty clamping and transfer tasks. The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod resist wear in continuous cycling.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which helps when space is tight inside a guard or gantry. The optional -S magnet is fitted here, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can mount directly to sense rod position. As a practical rule, plan for about 60 kg of safe working load at 0.5 MPa, since real work should stay below the full rating.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 881 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | 1234 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 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 ACE50X30S Is Used
Fixture Clamping
Clamp a 50 kg workpiece on a CNC fixture with a 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa, using the compact body to fit under a spindle guard.
Stop Gate
Actuate a stop gate on a packaging conveyor, where the 30 mm stroke and 881.2 N pull retract the gate quickly to release a carton.
Press Ram
Drive a small press ram for a staking operation, relying on the 1374.4 N push at 0.7 MPa to form a metal tab.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X30S the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duty, an ACE40X30 offers a 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, while moving up to an ACE63X30 gives 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa for heavier parts. This 50 mm bore balances force and size for many automated assembly stations. The 1/8" port suits standard fittings, and the fixed TPU bumper handles end-of-stroke impact up to 500 mm/s. Since this model carries the -S magnet, you can add CMSE or DMSE switches for position sensing. If you need to hold a load when air is off, add a rod lock or pilot check valve, as the cylinder does not lock by itself.
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 ACE50X30S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, push is 981.7 N and pull 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. These values are for the 50 mm bore with a 16 mm rod.
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight jigs and gantries. The fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact, and the optional -S magnet on this model enables CMSE or DMSE switches for position sensing.
