The AirTAC Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE80X15SB 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 ASE80X15SB is a single acting push cylinder with spring return, so air extends the rod and the built-in spring retracts it, needing only one air line. It delivers 2316.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (net of the spring), which is enough to move a 236 kg load vertically with a 2:1 safety margin, based on the 0.5 MPa rating.
The ISO 21287 compact body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight machine guards and gantries. The optional -S magnet is fitted on this model, enabling CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches for position sensing, and the male rod thread (B code) simplifies mounting with rod-end accessories.

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).

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 a 200 kg fixture in a CNC milling jig, where the compact body fits under the worktable.
In a packaging line, this cylinder ejects a filled carton onto a conveyor with a 15 mm stroke, and the spring retracts it quickly for the next cycle.
Mount it on a machine guard to push a safety latch into place; the short stroke and 50-500 mm/s speed suit fast, repetitive operations.
For lighter work, the ASE63X25 offers 1420.5 N at 0.5 MPa, while this 80 mm bore gives you 2316.2 N for heavier pushes. Since it is single acting, the spring returns the rod to home on air loss, so it cannot hold a mid-stroke position - plan for a positive stop if needed. The 1/4" port and M12x1.75 male rod thread suit standard fittings, and the ISO 21287 face accepts FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, and FTC brackets.
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. Minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa, and proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits in confined areas like machine guards. It has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb impact, and the optional -S magnet allows CMSE or DMSE sensors to detect the rod position.
