The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ20X75-10SB is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm 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.
This ACEJ20X75-10SB is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke: an external stop screw trims the 75 mm stroke by up to 10 mm on site, giving a usable range of 65-75 mm without changing the cylinder. The 20 mm bore delivers 157.1 N push and 117.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 219.9 N push at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 94 N, about 9.6 kg of real work, rather than the full rating.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs, guards and gantry frames. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a hard-chrome plated S45C rod with a male thread (the B code), and fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke energy. Because this model carries the -S magnet code, CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted directly in the body slots. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s.

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.

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 65-75 mm adjustable extend range lets a fixture builder dial in exact clamp position on light aluminium brackets, with 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa holding the part during a drilling or riveting cycle.
A short-body cylinder fits under low conveyor guards where a full-length profile cylinder cannot, nudging cartons or blisters off the belt at 30-500 mm/s within the 10 mm trim window.
With the fitted -S magnet driving CMSE or DMSE switches, the stroke end positions report back to the PLC on a compact electronics assembly bench, confirming the part is fully seated before the next step.
At 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, this 20 mm bore suits light clamping and positioning. Step down to the 16 mm bore (100.5 N push) for smaller loads, or up to the 25 mm bore (245.4 N push) if the duty grows. Remember the stop screw is a mechanical end stop for the extend stroke only: on air loss the piston still drifts, so it is not a mid-stroke lock. FA flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the fitted -S magnet lets you add CMSE / DMSE switches for end-position sensing.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 157.1 N and pulls 117.8 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 219.9 N and pulls 164.9 N, with a theoretical maximum of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -10 code is a 10 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw shortens the 75 mm extend stroke by up to 10 mm, so the working range is 65-75 mm. It shortens the stroke only and acts as a mechanical end stop, not a load-holding lock. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s, port M5x0.8, rod 10 mm with male thread.
The ISO 21287 compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a hard-anodized aluminium body, hard-chrome S45C rod and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots for end-position detection. FA flange, LB foot and I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 mounting face.
