The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ50~63 Adjustable Compact Air Cylinder ACEJ63X55-40S 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 ACEJ63X55-40S is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke. Its 63 mm bore delivers 1558.6 N push and 1458.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 2182.1 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The external stop screw trims the 55 mm stroke by up to 40 mm on site, giving a usable extend range of 15-55 mm without changing the cylinder.
The short hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight clamping fixtures and gantries. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the S code means the magnet is already fitted, so CMSE or DMSE switches can be mounted for end-position sensing. Plan on roughly 935 N (about 95 kg) of real working push at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting around 79 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 | 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 seats automotive bearing housings into housings on a assembly bench, with the 40 mm window letting you dial the press stroke between 15 and 55 mm per part variant.
Mounted under a carton conveyor, the compact body fits where an ISO 15552 profile cylinder is too long, kicking rejected packs off the line at up to 500 mm/s.
Lifts about 79 kg of steel guard panel vertically with a 2:1 margin, and the fitted magnet plus a CMSE switch confirms the gate is fully down before the cycle starts.
Size against load: the next bore down, ACEJ50, gives 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the next bore up, ACEJ80, reaches 2513.3 N. If your clamping or pressing job needs more than about 935 N of usable force, this 63 mm bore is the right step. Remember the stop screw only shortens the extend stroke and drifts on air loss, so it is not a load-holding device. FA flange or LB foot mounts and I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the fitted magnet pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 2182.1 N and pulls 2041.3 N; theoretical maximum is 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -40 code is a 40 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw shortens the 55 mm extend stroke by up to 40 mm, so the usable range is 15-55 mm. It shortens the stroke only and acts as a mechanical end stop, not a mid-stroke lock, so the piston still drifts if air is lost. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s.
This is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a 16 mm hard-chrome-plated S45C rod and M10x1.5 female rod thread. The S in the model code means the optional -S magnet is fitted on this unit, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots for end-position detection. Air ports are 1/8" PT, and FA flange or LB foot mounts bolt straight to the standard face.
