The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ125 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ125X90-30SB is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 90mm stroke, 1/4" 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 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 30 mm on site, giving a usable range of 60-90 mm without changing the cylinder. At 0.5 MPa the 125 mm bore delivers 6135.9 N push and 5890.5 N pull, rising to 8590.3 N at 0.7 MPa, so it carries the heaviest loads in the ACEJ range. A male rod thread (B code) and PT ports suit direct tooling attachment.
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters when a 125 mm bore must fit inside a press frame or guard. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 3680 N (about 375 kgf) of real work at 0.5 MPa, enough to lift about 312 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be added for end-of-stroke signalling, and FA flange or LB foot mounts bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face.

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 | 6136 N | 5890 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 8590 N | 8247 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 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 6135.9 N push at 0.5 MPa suits clinching, staking and light forming on aluminium brackets, with the 60-90 mm adjustable range tuned to each die set.
Lifts about 312 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin at 0.5 MPa, and the short ISO 21287 body fits where a full-length profile cylinder will not.
The male rod thread and 25 mm rod drive clamping links on machining-centre fixtures, with CMSE switches signalling the trimmed end position.
Size up or down by force: a 100 mm bore gives 3927.0 N push at 0.5 MPa, while this 125 mm bore more than doubles that to 6135.9 N. If your load needs under 2182.1 N, a 63 mm bore is the lighter choice. 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 a separate valve or clamp for load holding. The 30 mm window covers fixtures where the final stroke is tuned after installation, and the male rod thread takes I or Y knuckles directly.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 6135.9 N and pulls with 5890.5 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 8590.3 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 1251.4 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the extend stroke is trimmed by the stop screw anywhere in the 60-90 mm range. The port is 1/4" PT and the rod end is a male thread.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome plated rod and a fixed TPU bumper at each end, about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots to report the adjusted end position. FA flange and LB foot mounts bolt straight to the standard face.
