Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ12X50-10B
The AirTAC ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ12X50-10B is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø12mm bore and 50mm 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.

About the Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ12X50-10B
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACEJ12X50-10B pairs a 12 mm bore with a 50 mm stroke and a 10 mm adjustment window. An external stop screw trims the extend stroke on site anywhere between 40 and 50 mm, so one cylinder can be tuned to several fixture positions without reordering. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 56.5 N and pulls 42.4 N, rising to 79.2 N on the extend side at 0.7 MPa.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters inside small pick-and-place heads and slide clamps. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries an S45C hard-chrome plated 6 mm rod, and the male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to standard tooling. Note: this unit has no magnet, so no CMSE or DMSE switch can be fitted; order the -S code if sensing is needed.

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 ACEJ12X50-10B Is Used
Light-duty fixture clamping
Clamps thin sheet-metal brackets or PCB test fixtures in electronics assembly, where about 34 N of working force at 0.5 MPa holds the part without deforming it.
Is the Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ12X50-10B the Right Cylinder?
At the bottom of the ACEJ range, the 12 mm bore suits light clamping and small part transfer. The stop screw only shortens the extend stroke and is not a mid-stroke lock: on air loss the piston still drifts, so use a valve with a holding position if the load must stay put. Mounting via FA flange or LB foot, with I and Y rod knuckles available; PT ports as standard, G on request.
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 ACEJ12X50-10B FAQ
The -10 code gives a 10 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw shortens the 50 mm extend stroke to any value between 40 and 50 mm. It is a mechanical end stop only, not a load-holding brake. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s and operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow jigs and tight gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. This model has no magnet fitted, so no switch can be mounted; order the -S version to enable CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches. Mounting options include FA flange and LB foot, and the male rod thread (B code) attaches directly to standard tooling.
