The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ50~63 Adjustable Compact Air Cylinder ACEJ63X55-30S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 55mm 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 ACEJ63X55-30S is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke. Air drives the piston both ways, a fixed TPU bumper decelerates at each end, and an external stop screw trims the 55 mm stroke by up to 30 mm, giving a usable extend range of 25-55 mm. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 2182.1 N push. The hard-anodized aluminium body with roller-burnished bore and an S45C hard-chrome plated 16 mm rod stands up to continuous jig and gantry duty.
Because the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, this 63 mm bore slots into tight guarding and slide assemblies where a full-length body will not fit. Plan on roughly 935 N (about 95 kg) of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts around 79 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches anywhere along the body slots, 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 | 1559 N | 1458 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | 2041 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 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 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa clamps steel brackets in automotive weld jigs, and the 25-55 mm adjustable window lets one cylinder serve different part heights without re-plumbing.
On packaging line palletizing heads, the 63 mm bore seats cartons or lids with about 95 kg of usable force, while CMSE switches via the fitted magnet confirm full seat position.
Short-stroke pusher gates on bottling conveyors use the compact body behind tight guarding, with the stop screw trimming throw to match lane widths on site.
Size against the load: the next bore down, 50 mm, delivers 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 80 mm bore reaches 2513.3 N. If your clamping or pressing load sits between those figures, the 63 mm bore with its 1558.6 N push is the efficient pick. Remember the stop screw is a mechanical end stop for the extend stroke, not a mid-stroke lock, so the rod will still drift if air is lost. Order FA or LB mounting to suit the fixture and note this unit already carries the -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switching; air supply should be filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N; at 0.7 MPa push is 2182.1 N and pull 2041.3 N; theoretical maximum is 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -30 code sets a 30 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw shortens the 55 mm extend stroke by up to 30 mm, so the working range is 25-55 mm. It is a mechanical end stop only and does not hold a load on air loss. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, port 1/8" PT, female rod thread M10x1.5.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow fixtures and guarded slides. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches clip into the body slots for end-of-stroke or mid-range signals. FA flange and LB foot mounts bolt to the standard ISO 21287 face, and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke impact.
