Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ20X90-10
The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ20X90-10 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 90mm 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 ACEJ20X90-10
The ACEJ20X90-10 is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke: an external stop screw trims the 90 mm stroke by up to 10 mm on site, giving a usable range of 80-90 mm without swapping the cylinder. At 0.5 MPa the 20 mm bore delivers 157.1 N push and 117.8 N pull, rising to 219.9 N push at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures and guarding. A practical sizing rule: at 0.5 MPa plan on roughly 94 N (about 9.5 kg) of real work, which lifts about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. FA flange, LB foot and I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches - this model ships without a magnet.

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 (Ø20mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 157 N | 118 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 220 N | 165 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 32 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 ACEJ20X90-10 Is Used
Fixture clamping on CNC jigs
The 80-90 mm adjustable window lets a machinist trim the clamp stroke to the fixture depth without reordering, and 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa suits light clamping of aluminium parts.
Small-part push-off on conveyor lines
Pushing cartons or trays off a narrow conveyor needs a short body: the ISO 21287 frame saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder beside the belt.
Lab dosing and sample handling
At 30-500 mm/s the rod speed covers gentle sample pushes, and the 10 mm stop screw lets technicians fine-tune travel on an 80-90 mm dispensing stroke.
Is the Airtac ACEJ12 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ20X90-10 the Right Cylinder?
For this 20 mm bore, compare both directions: the 16 mm bore gives 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 25 mm bore steps up to 245.4 N push - choose the 20 mm when 157.1 N push and 117.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa match the load. The stop screw only shortens the extend stroke and is a mechanical end stop, not a mid-stroke lock, so the rod still drifts if air is lost. Order the -S code if you need position sensing with CMSE / DMSE switches; PT ports and a female M6x1.0 rod thread are standard on this version.
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 ACEJ20X90-10 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 157.1 N and pulls 117.8 N; at 0.7 MPa push is 219.9 N and pull 164.9 N; theoretical maximum is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 20 mm bore uses an M5x0.8 port, a 10 mm rod with female M6x1.0 thread, and the 90 mm stroke is trimmed by a stop screw within a 10 mm window (80-90 mm). Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, air filtered to 40 um.
The hard-anodized aluminium ISO 21287 body with an S45C hard-chrome rod is roughly half the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with fixed TPU bumpers at both ends to absorb end-of-stroke energy. Sensors are not included: order the optional -S magnet to run CMSE / DMSE switches. FA flange, LB foot, FTC brackets and I/Y rod knuckles mount directly on the ISO 21287 face.
