The AirTAC Airtac ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE63X10SB is a genuine single acting, pull (spring return) ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 10mm 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.
A single acting pull cylinder with spring return, the ATE63X10SB keeps the rod extended at rest and uses air to retract it. At 0.5 MPa the 63 mm bore delivers 1320 N of pull net of the spring, rising to 1903.2 N at 0.7 MPa, so it clamps or grips with real force while staying fail-safe to the extended home position on air loss. The body is hard-anodized aluminium with a roller-burnished bore, matched to an S45C hard-chrome plated 16 mm rod.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this cylinder slots into tight guarding and fixture plates where a full-length body will not go. This S-coded unit carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped to the body to signal the retracted position. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Working range is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 50-500 mm/s.

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 | Pull force (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1320.0 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1903.2 N |
Single-acting pull: the spring extends the rod; air 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). |

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.
The spring holds the clamp closed on a car-body bracket while the welder cycles; 1320 N of pull at 0.5 MPa retracts the jaw in 10 mm for loading, and a power cut leaves the part clamped.
A 10 mm kick drops a finished bushing out of a locating nest between press strokes; the short ISO 21287 body fits under the tooling plate where a full-length profile cylinder cannot.
Because this unit carries the -S magnet, a DMSE switch on the body confirms the gate has retracted before the PLC releases the next batch of granules down the sorting chute.
At 0.5 MPa this bore pulls 1320 N net of the spring, which is about 134 kgf; halve it for margin and you can lift roughly 67 kg vertically, so match the part weight accordingly. If your load is lighter, the 50 mm bore gives 775 N at 0.5 MPa; if you need more, step up to the 80 mm bore at 2159.1 N. Remember the spring only returns the rod to its extended home position - it will not hold a mid-stroke position, so use a stop or a double acting ACE cylinder where intermediate holding matters. Male rod thread (B) and PT ports are fitted here; FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot and FTC brackets plus I/Y knuckles bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face.
Quick checklist
It is a single acting pull cylinder: the spring extends the rod and air retracts it. Pull force is net of the return spring: 1320 N at 0.5 MPa and 1903.2 N at 0.7 MPa on the 63 mm bore. Minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa (needed to overcome the spring), the range is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed is 50-500 mm/s, and the stroke is 10 mm with a 16 mm rod and 1/8" PT port.
The ISO 21287 compact body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it suits shallow fixtures and guarded assemblies. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches mount directly in the body slots to report the retracted position. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, and FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB or FTC mounts bolt to the standard face.
