The AirTAC Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE63X15 is a genuine single acting, push (spring return) ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 15mm 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 ASE63X15 is a single acting cylinder with spring return, meaning air extends the rod and the spring retracts it, requiring only one air line. It delivers a net push force of 1420.5 N at 0.5 MPa, already accounting for the spring resistance, and needs a minimum of 0.2 MPa to overcome the spring.
Its ISO 21287 compact body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, fitting into tight machine guards and gantries. For a safe working load, plan for roughly 852 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, or about 87 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 safety margin.

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 | 1420.5 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2044.0 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).

| 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 CNC fixture to clamp a 60 kg component during drilling. The 1420.5 N push force holds the part securely, while the spring return releases it quickly for the next cycle.
Mount on a packaging line to push filled cartons off a conveyor onto a chute. The 15 mm stroke is ideal for nudging products, and the compact body fits between existing guide rails.
Install as a safety interlock on a machine guard. The spring retracts the rod to lock the door when air is removed, and the 1420.5 N force prevents opening during operation.
For lighter automation tasks, the ASE50 offers 875.5 N at 0.5 MPa, while the ASE80 provides 2316.2 N if you need more force. This 63 mm bore model with a 15 mm stroke is a good middle ground for compact fixtures. Remember, the spring retracts the rod on air loss, so it does not hold a mid-stroke position. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, and FTC brackets.
Quick checklist
The ASE63X15 provides a push force of 1420.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 2044 N at 0.7 MPa, both net of the return spring. It operates from 0.2 to 1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) and has a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
No, this model has no magnet, so no CMSE or DMSE switches can be mounted. You would need to order the ASE63X15S variant with the optional -S magnet to use position sensors. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke impact.
