The AirTAC Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE63X5S is a genuine single acting, push (spring return) ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 5mm 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 ASE63X5S is a single acting push cylinder with spring return, extending the rod with air and retracting it with the built-in spring. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 1420.5 N of push force, net of the spring, which is ample for clamping and pressing tasks in tight spaces.
The ISO 21287 compact body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits easily into guarded automation cells. With the -S magnet fitted, you can mount CMSE or DMSE switches for reliable position sensing. For a real-world estimate, plan for about 852 N of safe working load, which is roughly equivalent to lifting 87 kg vertically 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).

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 the ASE63X5S to clamp small components in a CNC fixture. Its 1420.5 N push force holds parts securely, while the compact body fits under the spindle guard.
Mount this cylinder on a packaging line to push finished cartons off a conveyor. The 5 mm stroke is perfect for a quick nudge, and the spring return resets it instantly for the next cycle.
In a pneumatic control panel, the ASE63X5S can actuate a spool valve. The reliable spring return ensures the valve defaults to its safe position if air pressure is lost.
For lighter duty, consider the ASE50 with 875.5 N push at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the ASE80 for 2316.2 N if you need more force. This 5 mm stroke is ideal for short, repetitive motions like part ejection or valve actuation. The spring returns the rod to its home position on air loss, but it does not hold a mid-stroke position. Choose FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, or SDB pivot mounts to match your fixture.
Quick checklist
The ASE63X5S provides a push force of 1420.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 2044 N at 0.7 MPa. These figures are net of the return spring force. The minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa, and the maximum is 1.0 MPa (145 psi).
The ASE63X5S has a hard-anodized aluminium body that is about 50% shorter than a standard ISO 15552 profile cylinder. This saves valuable space in tight enclosures. It also features a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb impact, and the optional -S magnet allows for CMSE or DMSE sensor mounting.
