The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ50~63 Adjustable Compact Air Cylinder ACEJ63X70-40SB is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 70mm 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 ACEJ63X70-40SB is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 63 mm bore and a 70 mm stroke that an external stop screw trims on site: the -40 code gives a 40 mm window, so the extend stroke is set anywhere from 30 to 70 mm without changing the cylinder. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N, rising to 2182.1 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical peak of 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The male rod thread (B code) bolts straight into male-threaded tooling, and the fitted -S magnet lets CMSE or DMSE switches report end positions.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters in cramped packaging frames and weld-cell fixtures. A practical sizing rule: treat roughly 935 N (about 0.6 of the push force) as the usable working force at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting about 79 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end of the hard-anodized aluminium body with its S45C hard-chrome rod.

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.

| 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 30-70 mm trimmed stroke tops a carton-sealing head on a packaging line, where the 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa closes flaps without crushing, and the short body fits under a low guard.
Male rod thread engages a clamping lever directly; trimming the stroke to 30 mm keeps the clamp retracted clear of swarf, and CMSE switches confirm the clamped position.
With about 79 kg vertical-lift equivalent at a 2:1 margin, the bore easily drives a heavy latch or gate in warehouse equipment, with the 40 mm window matching latch travel.
At 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa this 63 mm bore sits well above the 50 mm bore (981.7 N) and below the 80 mm bore (2513.3 N), so choose it when a 50 mm unit is marginal and an 80 mm unit is oversized. Note that the stop screw is a mechanical end stop for the extend stroke only - on air loss the piston drifts, so add a separate valve or lock if the load must be held. FA flange or LB foot mountings, I/Y rod knuckles and the fitted -S magnet for CMSE/DMSE switches complete the package; PT ports take 1/8" 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 is a 40 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw shortens the 70 mm extend stroke by up to 40 mm, giving a usable range of 30-70 mm. It is a mechanical end stop, not a mid-stroke lock - on air loss the piston still drifts.
It is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder whose short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. FA flange and LB foot mountings plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the standard face, the rod end is male thread, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches for end-position sensing.
