The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ16X75-10S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 75mm 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.
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACEJ16X75-10S pairs a 16 mm bore with a 75 mm stroke and a 10 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw trims the extend stroke on site anywhere between 65 and 75 mm. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 75.4 N, rising to 140.7 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical ceiling of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome plated rod run on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into slim fixtures where a full-length cylinder will not fit. Because the -S magnet is fitted, CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clamped anywhere along the body slots. In practice, plan for roughly 60 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, and expect it to lift about 5 kg vertically once a 2:1 margin is applied. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorb end-of-stroke shock.

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 | 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.

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.
The 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa is enough to kick light molded clips or caps off the ejector side, and the 65-75 mm trim range lets the toolmaker dial the ejection length without re-plumbing.
With the fitted magnet, CMSE or DMSE switches confirm fully-extended or retracted position on a lab press jig, while the 10 mm stop screw sets the exact press depth per part revision.
A short-body cylinder that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder fits between tight conveyor frames to nudge cartons or blisters at 30-500 mm/s.
At this bore size the 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa suits light clamping and small part transfer. Step down to a 12 mm bore (56.5 N push) for lighter duties, or up to a 20 mm bore (157.1 N push) when the load creeps past about 60 N. The female M4x0.7 rod thread takes standard rod accessories; FA flange or LB foot mountings bolt to the ISO 21287 face. Remember the stop screw is a mechanical end stop for the extend stroke, not a mid-stroke lock: on air loss the piston still drifts, so add an external stop if position must be held.
Quick checklist
This 16 mm bore model pushes 100.5 N and pulls 75.4 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 140.7 N push and 105.6 N pull, with a theoretical maximum of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The extend stroke is adjustable from 65 to 75 mm via the external stop screw (the -10 window). It is double acting, runs on 40 um filtered air at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature -20 to +70 C, speed 30-500 mm/s, port M5x0.8, female rod thread M4x0.7, PT body ports.
The ISO 21287 short body needs about 50% less mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits slim gantries and guarded cells. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted in the body slots for end-of-stroke signals. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends soften the stops, and FA flange or LB foot mountings plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the standard face.
