About the Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ16X60-10S
The ACEJ16X60-10S is a double acting AirTAC compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, with a 16 mm bore and a 60 mm stroke that an external stop screw trims by up to 10 mm, giving a usable extend range of 50-60 mm. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 75.4 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 140.7 N and 105.6 N. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures a full-length body cannot reach.
Because the -S code is ordered, the magnet is fitted, and CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots for end-of-stroke signalling. For sizing, plan on roughly 60 N (about 6 kg) of real work at 0.5 MPa, and expect it to lift around 5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries an S45C hard-chrome rod, TPU bumpers at both ends, and runs at 30-500 mm/s on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered air.

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 (Ø16mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 101 N | 75 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 141 N | 106 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 21 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ16X60-10S Is Used
Small-part press fitting
Seating dowels or bearings into aluminium housings on an electronics assembly bench, where the 50-60 mm trimmed stroke matches shallow press depth.
Position-checked ejection
Pushing stamped clips off a die with CMSE switch confirmation of full extension, thanks to the fitted -S magnet.
Compact jig clamping
Clamping PCB fixtures inside a guarded gantry where the short ISO 21287 body fits space an ISO 15552 profile cylinder cannot.
Is the Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ16X60-10S the Right Cylinder?
At 100.5 N push (0.5 MPa), this 16 mm bore suits light clamping and small-part ejection. Step down to a 12 mm bore (56.5 N) for gentler loads, or up to 20 mm (157.1 N) if the job grows. The stop screw only shortens the extend stroke - it is an end stop, not a mid-stroke lock, so the rod still drifts if air is lost. Female M4x0.7 rod thread, PT ports, and FA flange or LB foot mounting bolt straight onto the ISO 21287 face.
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 ACEJ16X60-10S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 75.4 N; at 0.7 MPa, 140.7 N push and 105.6 N pull. Theoretical maximum is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 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, on air filtered to 40 um.
An external stop screw shortens the 60 mm extend stroke by up to 10 mm, so you can set anywhere in a 50-60 mm window; it never extends past the ordered stroke. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches mount in the body slots. Fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke energy, FA/LB mounting bolts to the ISO 21287 face, and the body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
