The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ50~63 Adjustable Compact Air Cylinder ACEJ63X90-20 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 90mm 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 ACEJ63X90-20 is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke: an external stop screw trims the 90 mm stroke down by up to 20 mm, giving a usable range of 70-90 mm without changing the order. At 0.5 MPa the 63 mm bore delivers 1558.6 N on the push stroke and 1458.1 N on the pull stroke, rising to 2182.1 N at 0.7 MPa. In practice, plan on roughly 935 N (about 95 kg) of usable push at 0.5 MPa, or expect it to lift about 79 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so this 90 mm stroke unit slots into tight machine frames where a full-length body will not fit. A hard-anodized aluminium body carries a hard-chrome-plated S45C rod, fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke energy, and FA flange or LB foot mounts plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face. Note that the stop screw is a mechanical end stop only - on air loss the piston still drifts, so it is not a mid-stroke lock.

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 70-90 mm trim range lets a machinist dial the clamp stroke to the pallet height, and 935 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa secures aluminium workpieces without crushing.
With 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa and speeds of 30-500 mm/s, the 63 mm bore ejects cartons from a conveyor lane, while the short body fits under low guarding.
About 79 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin makes this cylinder suitable for lowering connector housings into press fixtures, with the stop screw set to the insertion depth.
Size against neighbours: a 50 mm bore gives 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa, while an 80 mm bore reaches 2513.3 N - the 63 mm sits between at 1558.6 N. If your fixture needs a fixed stroke instead of a trimmed one, the plain ACE63X90 covers it; the ACED double-rod variant handles anti-tension work and the TACE twin-guide suits side loads. This unit has no magnet fitted, so if you need CMSE / DMSE switch feedback, order the -S version instead. Ports are 1/8" on both ends and the rod end is female M10x1.5.
Quick checklist
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 maximum of 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -20 code means an external stop screw shortens the 90 mm extend stroke by up to 20 mm, so the working range is 70-90 mm. It runs double acting on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, with 1/8" ports and a female M10x1.5 rod thread.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and FA flange or LB foot mounts plus I/Y knuckles bolt directly to its face. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy but never locks or holds a load. Sensing is not fitted on this model: the magnet is the optional -S code, and only with -S can CMSE or DMSE switches be mounted in the body slots. Outline dimensions: confirm from datasheet.
