The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE80X80SB is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 80mm 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 ACE80X80SB is a double acting compact cylinder that uses air to both extend and retract its 20 mm rod. Its 80 mm bore delivers 2513.3 N of push force and 2356.2 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it a strong choice for mid-size automation tasks. The hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which lets you fit it into tight machine guards and gantries where a full-length cylinder will not work.
The body is threaded together for easy service, and the S45C carbon-steel rod has a hard-chrome finish for wear resistance. This model includes the optional -S magnet, so you can mount CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches to confirm piston position. With a 0.5 MPa supply, plan for a usable working load of about 1508 N, which is roughly 153.7 kgf, so it can comfortably lift a 150 kg part vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs impact energy, and the operating speed range is 30-500 mm/s.

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 the 2513.3 N push force to clamp sheet metal parts in a welding fixture, holding them steady for precise tack welds.
Actuate a diverter gate on a packaging conveyor, using the 80 mm stroke to push cartons onto a secondary lane at speeds up to 500 mm/s.
Drive a safety guard interlock on a small stamping press, where the short ISO 21287 body fits within the machine frame and the magnet signals the guard is closed.
For lighter duty in a smaller envelope, consider the ACE63X80 with 1558.6 N push force at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the ACE100X80 for 3927.0 N push force if you need more muscle. This ACE80X80SB has a 1/4" port and a male rod thread, which simplifies mounting in many jigs. The optional -S magnet is already fitted here, so you can add CMSE or DMSE sensors for position feedback. Remember that this is a double acting cylinder, so it will not hold its position if air pressure is lost; use a rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding.
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).
The ACE80X80SB has a hard-anodized aluminium body that is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits in tight spaces. It has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb impact, and this model includes the optional -S magnet for use with CMSE or DMSE switches.
