The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ50~63 Adjustable Compact Air Cylinder ACEJ63X55-50SB 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, the ACEJ63X55-50SB pairs a 63 mm bore with a 55 mm stroke that an external stop screw trims anywhere in a 50 mm window, giving a usable extend range of 5-55 mm. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 2182.1 N and 2041.3 N, with a theoretical ceiling of 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into gantries and guarding where a full-length body will not fit.
Because the -S magnet is fitted on this model, CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots for end-of-travel signals. The B code gives a male 16 mm rod thread, and the port is 1/8". Plan on roughly 935 N (about 95 kg of force) of real work at 0.5 MPa, and for vertical lifts treat it as lifting about 79 kg with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, and speed runs 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.

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 housings in machining fixtures, and the 5-55 mm trim lets one cylinder serve several part heights without re-plumbing.
With about 95 kg of usable working force at 0.5 MPa, this bore presses bushings and bearings into small housings on automated assembly lines.
The short body, roughly half the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, fits under tight gantry rails to stop and position totes on conveyor transfers.
At 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa this 63 mm bore sits between the 50 mm bore (981.7 N) and the 80 mm bore (2513.3 N), so pick it when a 50 is undersized but an 80 is oversized for the fixture. Remember the stop screw only shortens the extend stroke and is not a mid-stroke lock: on air loss the piston still drifts, so add a separate holding valve if the load must stay put. FA flange, LB foot and FTC brackets plus I and Y rod knuckles bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the fitted -S magnet means CMSE / DMSE switches work out of the box. Ports are 1/8"; the male rod thread suits external clevises and tooling plates.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N; at 0.7 MPa, 2182.1 N push and 2041.3 N pull; theoretical maximum is 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -50 code is a 50 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw shortens the 55 mm extend stroke on site, so the usable range is 5-55 mm. It shortens the stroke only and never lengthens it past 55 mm. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, temperature -20 to +70 C.
The -S magnet is fitted on this model, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped into the body slots for end-of-travel detection; models ordered without -S carry no magnet. Mounting uses FA flange, LB foot or FTC brackets plus I and Y rod knuckles on the ISO 21287 face. The rod is 16 mm with a male thread (B code), the port is 1/8", and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy. It is a compact short-body cylinder, about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
