About the Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE80X5
This AirTAC ASE80X5 is a single acting push cylinder with spring return, meaning air extends the rod and a built-in spring retracts it, so it needs only one air line and rests retracted. It delivers 2316.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (net of the spring), which is enough for firm clamping or pressing in a compact package.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight fixtures where a longer cylinder would not. For a safe working load, plan for about 1390 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which is roughly equivalent to lifting 142 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin, helping you match a real part weight.

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 (Ø80mm)
| 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).

Where the Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE80X5 Is Used
Fixture Clamping
Use the ASE80X5 to clamp a workpiece against a jig in a CNC milling setup, where the 2316.2 N push at 0.5 MPa holds parts firmly and the short 5 mm stroke keeps cycle times fast.
Press Staking
In a small bench press, this cylinder can stake a metal insert into a plastic housing, using the 3321.5 N push at 0.7 MPa to deform the material consistently without over-travel.
Guard Locking
Mount the ASE80X5 as a safety guard lock on a packaging machine, where the spring retracts the rod to unlock the guard when air is off, and the 80 mm bore provides reliable force to keep the guard closed during operation.
Is the Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE80X5 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing, compare this 80 mm bore with the 63 mm bore, which pushes 1420.5 N at 0.5 MPa, or the 100 mm bore, which pushes 3640.7 N, to find the right force for your application. The 5 mm stroke is very short, so it suits precise, small movements rather than long travel, and the spring will retract the rod on air loss but will not hold a mid-stroke position. This model has no magnet fitted, so order the optional -S code if you need to use CMSE or DMSE sensors, and choose from FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, or FTC mounts.
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 ASE80X5 FAQ
The ASE80X5 delivers 2316.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 3321.5 N at 0.7 MPa, both net of the return spring. The minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa, and the maximum is 1.0 MPa (28-145 psi), with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight jigs and guards. It has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends to absorb end-of-stroke energy, and you can mount it with FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, or FTC brackets.
