The AirTAC ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ12X45-10SB is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø12mm bore and 45mm stroke, M5×0.8 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.
The ACEJ12X45-10SB is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 12 mm bore and a 45 mm stroke that an external stop screw trims on site by up to 10 mm, giving a usable extend range of 35-45 mm. The male rod thread (B code) suits external tooling, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches for end-position sensing.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into slim fixtures and guarded cells. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a hard-chrome S45C rod, a fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

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 | 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).
| ACEJ | ISO 21287 compact cylinder (adjustable-stroke). |
|---|---|
| 12 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×45 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -10 | Adjustable stroke window (mm the extend stroke can be shortened on site). |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSE / DMSE sensors (omit for no magnet). |
| B | Rod type: B = male thread; blank = female thread. |
ACE-family variants: ACE (double acting), ASE / ATE (single acting push / pull), ACED (double rod), ACEJ (double rod, 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.
On a packaging line, the fitted magnet lets CMSE or DMSE switches confirm the 35-45 mm extend range, while the stop screw dials the eject distance to match shallow trays.
The 45 mm stroke sits inside the 50 mm max standard stroke for bore 12, so no made-to-order build is needed. The 10 mm window suits jobs where the final stop must be dialed in after installation - remember the stop screw only shortens the extend stroke and does not hold a load if air is lost. This model already carries the -S magnet and the B male rod thread; PT ports are standard, and FA flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the ISO 21287 face.
Quick checklist
Bore is 12 mm, stroke 45 mm adjustable within a 10 mm window (35-45 mm usable), rod 6 mm with male thread, port M5x0.8, speed 30-500 mm/s, pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature -20 to +70 C, air filtered to 40 um.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with FA flange, LB foot and I/Y knuckle accessories fitting the standard face. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots to signal end positions.
