The AirTAC Airtac ACEJ80~100 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACEJ100X80-30 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 80mm 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 ACEJ100X80-30 pairs a 100 mm bore with an 80 mm stroke and a 30 mm trim window. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 3769.9 N, rising to 5497.8 N at 0.7 MPa and a theoretical 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke anywhere in the 50-80 mm range on site, so one cylinder serves several fixture positions without re-ordering.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated 20 mm rod keeps the envelope short: mounting length is about 50% less than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters in guarded cells and gantry frames. Plan on roughly 2356 N (about 240 kg of force) for real work at 0.5 MPa, and expect about 200 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. Note that the stop screw is a mechanical end stop only - on air loss the piston drifts, so it never holds a load mid-stroke.

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 | 5498 N | 5278 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 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.
3927 N push at 0.5 MPa seats bearings and bushings into aluminium housings, and the 30 mm window lets one cylinder serve two different press depths.
With about 200 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin, the 100 mm bore raises heavy workpieces; the short body fits under low gantry beams.
The 50-80 mm adjustable extend stroke pushes pallets onto a side lane, with the fixed TPU bumper absorbing the end-of-stroke impact at 30-500 mm/s.
At this bore size the ACEJ100X80-30 sits near the top of the range: a 63 mm bore gives 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 125 mm version reaches 6135.9 N - choose this 100 mm model when you need roughly 400 kgf of push without stepping up in frame size. The 80 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 100, so no made-to-order stroke is needed. This unit has a female M12x1.75 rod thread and a 1/8" PT port; add the optional -S magnet code if you later want CMSE / DMSE switch sensing, since without -S there is no magnet. FA flange and LB foot mounts bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3769.9 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 5497.8 N push and 5277.9 N pull, with a theoretical maximum of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -30 code is a 30 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw shortens the 80 mm extend stroke by up to 30 mm, giving a usable range of 50-80 mm. It trims the stroke only - it is not a mid-stroke lock, and the piston still drifts if air is lost. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and speed is 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287 compact build saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits tight guards and fixtures. The body carries a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb end-of-stroke energy. Mounting options include FA flange and LB foot, plus I and Y rod knuckles. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code - this model has no magnet fitted, so CMSE or DMSE switches can only be used if you order the -S variant.
