The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X80S is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 80mm 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 ACE50X80S is a double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, with a hard-anodized aluminium body and a hard-chrome plated S45C steel rod. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 981.7 N of push force and 881.2 N of pull, making it a solid mid-range actuator for automated assembly tasks.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight machine guarding and gantries. The optional -S magnet is fitted on this model, allowing CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches to sense the piston position. For a real-world load, plan on about 60 kg of safe vertical lifting at 0.5 MPa, which is roughly 0.6 times the rated push force divided by gravity.

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.
| 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.

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.
Use in a benchtop press for inserting bushings into aluminum housings, where the 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa provides enough force for light interference fits.
Actuate a diverter gate on a packaging conveyor to route cartons between lanes, with the 80 mm stroke moving the flap quickly and the magnet enabling position feedback.
Mount on a CNC fixture to clamp a workpiece during drilling, using the compact body to fit under the spindle and the TPU bumper to absorb end-of-stroke shock.
For a lighter duty, the 40 mm bore ACE40X80 offers 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the 63 mm bore ACE63X80 gives 1558.6 N push for heavier fixtures. The 80 mm stroke suits short transfer slides and clamping mechanisms where space is limited.
This model includes the -S magnet, so order CMSE or DMSE sensors separately to monitor position. The 1/8" port matches common air prep units, and the female M10x1.5 rod thread connects to standard clevis or rod end accessories.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push is 981.7 N and pull is 881.2 N. At 0.7 MPa, push rises to 1374.4 N and pull to 1233.7 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 200.2 kgf. Operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
The body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it saves space in tight jigs and guards. It uses a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb impact, and the optional -S magnet on this model allows CMSE or DMSE switches for position sensing.
