The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ32~40 Adjustable Cushion Compact Cylinder ACEJ32X100-30B is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/8" 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.
The ACEJ32X100-30B is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke: an external stop screw trims the 100 mm stroke anywhere within the ordered 30 mm window, giving a usable range of 70-100 mm without changing the cylinder. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 402.1 N and pulls with 345.6 N, and the male rod thread (the B code) bolts straight into linkage arms and tooling plates.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight guarding and slide assemblies. For sizing, plan on roughly 240 N of real work at 0.5 MPa (about 60% of the rating), which is a vertical lift of around 24 kg - or about 12 kg with a 2:1 margin. FA flanges, LB feet and I/Y rod knuckles mount on the standard face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S no magnet is fitted. Speed range is 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.

| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 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.
On a machining-centre jig, the 30 mm window lets the setter dial the clamp stroke between 70 and 100 mm to clear a swarf guard while still seating the part, using the 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa.
A carton pusher on a food line uses the B male rod thread for a quick-release clevis, with the 345.6 N pull stroke retracting the paddle clear of the 100 mm conveyor gap.
In a light stamping die, the cylinder ejects parts with 563 N available at 0.7 MPa, and the stop screw sets a repeatable 70 mm ejection height for shallow parts.
At 32 mm bore this unit delivers 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa - a step up from the 25 mm bore (245.4 N) if your clamp or slide needs more force, while the 40 mm bore (628.3 N) is the next size if 402 N is marginal. The -30 window suits fixtures where the final stroke is tuned on the machine, trimming down to 70 mm; if you need the full 100 mm always, the fixed-stroke ACE32X100 does the same job. Remember the stop screw is an end stop only - on air loss the rod drifts, so add a valve or external lock for load holding. Order the -S code if you need position sensing.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 563 N and pull to 483.8 N, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -30 code is a 30 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw shortens the 100 mm extend stroke by up to 30 mm, so the working range is 70-100 mm. It cannot lengthen the stroke beyond 100 mm, and the stop is not a mid-stroke lock - on air loss the piston still drifts.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet, which allows CMSE / DMSE switches; this model has no S code, so no magnet is fitted. FA flange, LB foot and I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the standard mounting face, and the air port is 1/8" PT.
