The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ50~63 Adjustable Compact Air Cylinder ACEJ63X55-40SB 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.
A double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke, the ACEJ63X55-40SB delivers 1558.6 N push and 1458.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 2182.1 N at 0.7 MPa. The 63 mm bore drives a 16 mm hard-chrome S45C rod through a 55 mm stroke that the external stop screw trims anywhere in the ordered 40 mm window, giving a usable range of 15-55 mm without changing hardware.
The short hard-anodized aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into dense palletizer frames and weld fixtures. Because the -S magnet is fitted, CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches clamp straight onto the body slot for end-of-stroke signalling, and the male rod thread (B code) accepts standard rod accessories.

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, while the 15-55 mm trim range lets one cylinder serve several part sizes.
With about 79 kg of vertical-lift equivalent, the 63 mm bore ejects cartons from conveyor stops in distribution centres at speeds of 30-500 mm/s.
The male rod thread and FA flange mounting suit short-stroke die cushioning replacement in stamping shops, with CMSE switches confirming full seat via the fitted magnet.
At 0.5 MPa this bore pushes 1558.6 N, so plan on roughly 935 N (about 95 kg) of real work force and expect it to lift around 79 kg vertically, or about 40 kg with a 2:1 margin. If your load is lighter, the 50 mm bore gives 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa; if heavier, the 80 mm bore reaches 2513.3 N. Note the stop screw is a mechanical end stop for the extend stroke only - on air loss the piston still drifts, so add a separate valve or lock for load holding. FA flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and PT ports take standard fittings.
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, with a theoretical maximum of 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -40 code sets a 40 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw shortens the 55 mm extend stroke by up to 40 mm, so the working range is 15-55 mm. It shortens the stroke only and acts as an end stop, not a mid-stroke lock.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorbing end-of-stroke energy. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches mount in the body slot for position feedback. FA flange and LB foot mounts, plus I and Y rod knuckles, bolt to the standard face; the 1/8" port takes PT thread fittings.
