About the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE63X160
This AirTAC ACE63X160 is a double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, with a 63 mm bore and a 160 mm stroke. Its hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome plated rod handle demanding cycles, while the fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs impact for quiet, reliable stops.
At 0.5 MPa it delivers 1558.6 N of push force and 1458.1 N of pull force, so it can lift about 95 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The short ISO 21287 body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, letting it fit into tight machine frames and guarding where a longer cylinder would not.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE63X160 Is Used
Jig Clamping
Clamp parts in a CNC milling fixture where the 160 mm stroke and 1558.6 N push force hold a workpiece securely during machining, while the compact body fits under the spindle guard.
Package Stops
Actuate a stop gate on a packaging conveyor line, using the 1458.1 N pull force to retract the rod quickly and the fixed TPU bumper to handle repeated cycles at speeds up to 500 mm/s.
Press Guard Lift
Lift a safety guard on a small assembly press, where the 50% shorter ISO 21287 body allows the cylinder to mount within the machine frame and the 1558.6 N force easily raises the guard panel.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE63X160 the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duty in the same footprint, the ACE50X160 offers 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the ACE80X160 steps up to 2513.3 N push for heavier work. This 63 mm bore model suits medium-force applications where space is limited and a 160 mm stroke is required. The 1/8" port matches standard fittings, and the female M10x1.5 rod thread accepts common attachments. Since this model has no -S code, it has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be mounted; order the -S variant if you need position sensing.
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 ACE63X160 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 1558.6 N and the pull force is 1458.1 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 2182.1 N and pull is 2041.3 N. The theoretical maximum force is 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with proof pressure at 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
Yes, it is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder, so its body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, ideal for tight spaces. However, this model has no magnet because it lacks the -S code, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be mounted. If you need position sensing, order the ACE63X160S variant with the optional magnet.
