The AirTAC Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE32X10 is a genuine single acting, push (spring return) ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 10mm 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.
This AirTAC ASE32X10 is a single acting, spring-return compact cylinder that extends with air and retracts via an internal spring, needing just one air line. With a 32 mm bore and 10 mm stroke, it delivers 352.5 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, net of the spring, and requires a minimum of 0.2 MPa to overcome the spring's resistance.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making it ideal for tight spaces. For a safe working load, plan for about 21.6 kg of vertical lift at 0.5 MPa, which is roughly 60% of the rated force, ensuring reliable operation without overloading the spring return.

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 (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 352.5 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 513.4 N |
Single-acting push: air extends the rod; the return spring retracts it. Forces already net the spring; minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa. Single-acting strokes are short (Ø12 to 10 mm, Ø16-100 to 25 mm).

|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×10 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSE / DMSE sensors (omit for no magnet). |
| B | Rod type: B = male thread; blank = female thread. |
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.
Use in a jig to clamp small parts during drilling or tapping, where the 352.5 N force holds components firmly and the spring retracts the pin for quick part changes.
In a packaging line, this cylinder can push a label applicator head forward to press labels onto boxes, with the spring returning it after each cycle at speeds up to 500 mm/s.
Mount on a machine guard to push a locking pin into a frame hole, securing the guard during operation; the spring retracts the pin when air is released, allowing access.
When sizing, compare this 32 mm bore to a smaller 25 mm bore that offers 210.1 N at 0.5 MPa, or a larger 40 mm bore providing 556.8 N at 0.5 MPa. The 10 mm stroke is within the 25 mm standard for this bore, so it is a standard model. Since the spring retracts the rod, it does not hold a mid-stroke position on air loss; it returns home. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, and FTC brackets, all compatible with the ISO 21287 face. This model has no magnet, so order the -S code if you need to use CMSE or DMSE sensors.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 352.5 N, and at 0.7 MPa it is 513.4 N, both net of the return spring. The operating pressure range is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi), with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits in tight spaces. It has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb impact, and mounting options like FA/FB flange or LB foot attach directly to the ISO 21287 face. The optional -S magnet enables CMSE or DMSE sensors for position detection.
