About the Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE32X15
This AirTAC ASE32X15 is a single acting push cylinder with spring return, built to ISO 21287 compact dimensions. It delivers 352.5 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (net of the return spring), with a minimum working pressure of 0.2 MPa to overcome the spring. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making it ideal for tight automation cells. For a safe working load, plan for about 212 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting roughly 22 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.
The hard-anodized aluminium alloy body and S45C carbon-steel rod with hard-chrome plating ensure durability in cyclic applications. A fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the port is 1/8" PT. This model has no magnet fitted, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be mounted unless you order the optional -S magnet version.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| 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).

Where the Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE32X15 Is Used
Fixture Clamping
Use in a CNC fixture to clamp small parts with 352.5 N force at 0.5 MPa, where the compact body fits under a workholding table and the spring retract clears the part automatically.
Label Applicator
Drive a label tamp head in a packaging line with a 15 mm stroke, pushing labels onto cartons at up to 500 mm/s, with the spring return resetting the head for the next cycle.
Guard Door Latch
Actuate a small safety guard latch on a machine enclosure, where the single acting push extends a bolt and the spring retracts it when air is removed, saving space in the guard frame.
Is the Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE32X15 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing, compare this 32 mm bore with the 25 mm bore, which offers 210.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the 40 mm bore for 556.8 N push at 0.5 MPa. The 15 mm stroke is within the 25 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a standard off-the-shelf option. Since this is single acting, the spring retracts the rod on air loss, but it does not hold a mid-stroke position. Choose the -S code if you need the optional magnet for CMSE or DMSE switches, and select from FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, or FTC mounting brackets.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short stroke fits the compact body
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S if you need the magnet for sensors
- ✓ Rod type (female / male B) & mount (FA/LB/CA)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.2 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Compact body: keep the stroke short and avoid side load on the rod.
- check Do not dismantle the threaded front/back covers.
- check Single-acting: do not force the rod against the spring.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE32X15 FAQ
The ASE32X15 delivers 352.5 N push at 0.5 MPa and 513.4 N push at 0.7 MPa, both net of the return spring. The minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa, and the proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi). Operating pressure range is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi).
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits in tight jigs and guards. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs impact, and mounting options like FA/FB flange, LB foot, or CA/CB clevis bolt directly to standard ISO 21287 faces. Note that the magnet is optional - order the -S code to use CMSE or DMSE sensors.
