The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ32~40 Adjustable Cushion Compact Cylinder ACEJ32X25-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 25mm 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 ACEJ32X25-20S is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke. A 32 mm bore delivers 402.1 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 563 N push at 0.7 MPa. The -20 code means an external stop screw trims the 25 mm stroke by up to 20 mm on site, giving a usable extend range of 5-25 mm without changing the cylinder.
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 fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, and the hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated 12 mm rod stands up to continuous cycling. Because this model carries the -S magnet, CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be fitted for end-position sensing. At 0.5 MPa, plan on roughly 240 N (about 24 kgf) of real working force, which lifts around 12 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

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 | 402 N | 346 N |
| 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.
The 5-25 mm adjustable extend range lets a machinist set exact clamp travel on a CNC fixture plate, with 402.1 N of push holding aluminium parts against a stop.
On a snack-food conveyor line, the compact body fits under low guarding while the -S magnet and a DMSE switch confirm each carton push is complete.
A 24 kgf-class working force at 0.5 MPa presses bearings into small housings on an electronics assembly bench, with the stop screw set to a repeatable 8 mm stroke.
Size by force: the 32 mm bore gives 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa; step down to a 25 mm bore (245.4 N) for lighter clamping or up to a 40 mm bore (628.3 N) if the load grows. Note the stop screw only shortens the extend stroke and is not a mid-stroke lock, so the rod can drift if air is lost. FA flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the fitted -S magnet pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 563 N and pulls 483.8 N; theoretical maximum is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -20 code is a 20 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw shortens the 25 mm extend stroke by up to 20 mm, so the usable range is 5-25 mm. It cannot lengthen the stroke beyond 25 mm, and the stop is not a load-holding brake.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at both ends and 30-500 mm/s speed. This model includes the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted in the body slots. Ports are 1/8" PT, the rod thread is female M8x1.25, and FA or LB mounting bolts to the standard ISO 21287 face.
