The AirTAC Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE80X15B is a genuine single acting, push (spring return) ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 15mm stroke, 1/4" 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 ASE80X15B is a single acting push cylinder with spring return, extending on air and retracting via the spring. It delivers a net push force of 2316.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3321.5 N at 0.7 MPa, with a minimum working pressure of 0.2 MPa.
The ISO 21287 compact body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, fitting into tight machine frames and guarding. The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod resist wear, while fixed TPU bumpers absorb end-of-stroke impact. For a 2:1 safety margin, plan to lift about 118 kg vertically at 0.5 MPa, not the full rating.

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 | 2316.2 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3321.5 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 the 2316.2 N push at 0.5 MPa to clamp sheet metal parts in a welding fixture, with the spring retracting the clamp for part removal.
In a small bench press, this cylinder applies a controlled 3321.5 N force at 0.7 MPa to form or stamp components, with the spring lifting the ram after each cycle.
Mount on a machine guard to push a locking pin into place, securing the door during operation; the spring releases the pin when air is exhausted.
Choose this 80 mm bore when you need a strong push in a short stroke, such as clamping or pressing. If space is tighter and force demand is lower, the 63 mm bore offers 1420.5 N at 0.5 MPa; for heavier work, the 100 mm bore provides 3640.7 N. The spring retracts the rod to home on air loss, but it does not hold a mid-stroke position. This model has a male rod thread (B code) and a 1/4" PT port, with no magnet fitted; order the -S option for CMSE or DMSE sensors.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 2316.2 N, and at 0.7 MPa it is 3321.5 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 compared to an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight spaces. The fixed TPU bumpers at both ends absorb impact, and the hard-anodized aluminium body resists wear. This model has a male rod thread and no magnet, but you can order the -S option to add a magnet for CMSE or DMSE sensors.
