The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE80X150S is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/4" 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 ACE80X150S is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder that extends and retracts its rod with air pressure on both strokes. The 80 mm bore delivers a 2513.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa, and 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 cylinder will not.
For real-world sizing, plan for roughly 1508 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which is about 154 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 safety margin. The optional -S magnet is fitted on this model, so you can mount CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches directly on the body for position sensing. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke impact, but it does not lock or hold a load if air pressure is lost.

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.

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 this 80 mm bore cylinder to open and close a heavy polycarbonate guard door on a CNC milling machine. The 2513.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily moves the door, and the compact body fits within the machine's frame envelope.
Mount this cylinder on a conveyor line to raise and lower a pallet stop. The 2356.2 N pull force at 0.5 MPa retracts the stop reliably, and the optional -S magnet lets a CMSE switch confirm the stop is down before the pallet advances.
In a packaging cell, this cylinder can tamp down a tall carton before sealing. The 150 mm stroke provides enough travel to press the flaps, and the hard-anodized aluminium body resists wear from continuous cycling at speeds up to 500 mm/s.
When selecting between bores, compare this 80 mm unit against the 63 mm bore, which pushes 1558.6 N at 0.5 MPa, or the 100 mm bore, which pushes 3927.0 N. The 80 mm bore is a strong mid-range choice for applications needing over 2500 N of push force without the bulk of a 100 mm cylinder. The 150 mm stroke is within the standard 300 mm maximum for this bore, so no custom order is needed.
This model has a female M12x1.75 rod thread and a 1/4" port. If you need to hold a vertical load when air is off, add a rod lock or pilot check valve, because the TPU bumper only decelerates at the ends and does not act as a brake. For mounting, FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, and FTC brackets all bolt to the ISO 21287 face.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 2513.3 N and the pull force is 2356.2 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 3518.6 N and pull is 3298.7 N. The theoretical maximum force is 512.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), and the proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The magnet is an optional -S feature, and this model includes it because the code ends with S. With the magnet fitted, you can mount CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches to detect the piston position. Without the -S code, there is no magnet, so sensors cannot be used.
