About the Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ12X25-20
The ACEJ12X25-20 is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke. The -20 code means an external stop screw trims the 25 mm stroke down by up to 20 mm on site, giving a usable extend range of 5-25 mm without changing the cylinder.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into slim fixtures, small gates and compact pick stations. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a 6 mm S45C hard-chrome rod with a female M3x0.5 thread, a fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, and the port is M5x0.8. Note: this unit has no magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches cannot be used unless you order the -S version.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø12mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 42 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 59 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 9 kgf |
ACEJ is double-rod: the rear rod that carries the stroke adjuster exits the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area. The rod-side (annular) area is used for both directions (conservative).

Where the Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ12X25-20 Is Used
Micro part clamping
Holds small electronics or watch components in a slim test fixture, with the stroke trimmed between 5 and 25 mm to match part height.
Compact ejector on small assemblies
Pushes light plastic caps off a nest on a bench-top assembly station where a full-length cylinder will not fit.
Is the Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ12X25-20 the Right Cylinder?
The stop screw only shortens the extend stroke and is not a mid-stroke lock, so the piston still drifts if air is lost. FA flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the standard ISO 21287 face. If position detection is needed later, order the -S magnet code with CMSE / DMSE switches.
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 ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ12X25-20 FAQ
Push is 56.5 N and pull 42.4 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa push is 79.2 N and pull 59.4 N, with a theoretical maximum of 11.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is double acting with a 25 mm stroke adjustable down to 5 mm via the -20 stop screw, running on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, M5x08 port (M5x0.8), female M3x0.5 rod thread, PT ports, and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, ideal for tight jigs and guards. FA flange and LB foot mounts fit the standard face. This model has no magnet, so no CMSE / DMSE switch can be fitted; choose the -S magnet option if sensing is required.
