About the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X5SBH
This AirTAC ACE50X5SBH is a double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, with a 50 mm bore and a 5 mm stroke. Its hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod handle demanding cycles, while the fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs impact. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight machine frames where a full-length unit will not.
At 0.5 MPa this cylinder delivers 981.7 N push and 881.2 N pull, with 1374.4 N push at 0.7 MPa. For a real-world rule of thumb, plan for about 60 kg of safe working load at 0.5 MPa, which is roughly 0.6 times the push force converted to mass. The male rod thread (B code) and the fitted optional -S magnet for CMSE or DMSE switches make it ready for automation feedback.

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 ACE50X5SBH Is Used
Short-Stroke Clamping
Use this 50 mm bore, 5 mm stroke cylinder to clamp a small workpiece in a CNC fixture, delivering 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa to hold parts securely during drilling or milling.
Label Applicator
In a packaging line, this compact cylinder can drive a label applicator head over a 5 mm travel, with the male rod thread connecting directly to the applicator arm for quick, repeatable cycles.
Tight-Space Ejection
Mount this cylinder inside a die or mold to eject a small part after forming, using the short ISO 21287 body to fit where a longer cylinder would interfere with the tooling.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X5SBH the Right Cylinder?
For a 5 mm stroke, this ACE50X5SBH suits short indexing or clamping tasks. If you need more force, step up to a 63 mm bore which pushes 1558.6 N at 0.5 MPa; for lighter work, a 40 mm bore pushes 628.3 N. The fixed TPU bumper only softens end-of-stroke impact, so do not rely on it to hold a load - use a rod lock or pilot check valve if position must be kept when air is off. The male rod thread simplifies coupling to a fixture, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state sensors for position feedback.
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 ACE50X5SBH FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force 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. The port is 1/8 inch, and the rod is 16 mm with a male thread.
The ACE50X5SBH has a hard-anodized aluminium body that is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits in tight jigs or guards. It uses a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb impact, and the optional -S magnet allows CMSE or DMSE sensors to detect rod position.
