The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X60S is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 60mm 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.
This AirTAC ACE50X60S is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 50 mm bore and 60 mm stroke, delivering 981.7 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its 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 cylinder will not.
The S in the model code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted for position sensing. For a real-world load, plan on about 60 kg of safe vertical lift at 0.5 MPa (981.7 N x 0.6 divided by 9.81), which gives you a 2:1 margin for a part that weighs about 30 kg. The fixed TPU bumper absorbs energy at both ends of the stroke, but it does not lock or hold a load, so use a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put when air is removed.

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.

| 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.

ACE-family variants: ACE (double acting), ASE / ATE (single acting push / pull), ACED (double rod), ACEJ (adjustable stroke), TACE / TACED (non-rotating twin-guide yoke). Mounting accessories: FA / FB flange, LB foot, CA / CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, FTC; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G.
Mount this ACE50X60S on a CNC milling fixture to clamp a 25 kg aluminum part during drilling. The 981.7 N push force holds the workpiece firmly, and the short body keeps the fixture compact so the spindle has clearance.
Use this cylinder as a stop gate on a conveyor carrying cartons. The 60 mm stroke extends a rubber-tipped rod to halt a box weighing up to 30 kg, and the fixed TPU bumper prevents shock to the product at the end of the stroke.
In a palletizing cell, this cylinder pushes a 20 kg carton off a transfer plate onto a pallet. The 881.2 N pull force retracts the rod quickly, and the optional magnet lets a PLC confirm the pusher is home before the next cycle.
Size this ACE50X60S against the ACE40X60, which pushes 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the ACE63X60 for 1558.6 N of push force at the same pressure. The 50 mm bore is a middle ground for light assembly and packaging tasks, and the 60 mm stroke suits short transfer or clamping moves. The 1/8" port matches common air line sizes, and the female M10x1.5 rod thread accepts standard clevis or rod-end fittings. Because the magnet is fitted, you can add CMSE or DMSE switches for end-of-stroke detection without opening the cylinder.
Quick checklist
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 at 1.0 MPa is 200.2 kgf. These figures assume clean, dry air at the rated pressure.
The magnet is an optional -S option, and this model carries that option, so it is fitted. You can mount CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches in the body slots to detect the piston position. Without the -S code, no magnet is present, and sensors will not work.
