Airtac ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE63X5B
The AirTAC Airtac ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE63X5B is a genuine single acting, pull (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.

About the Airtac ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE63X5B
This AirTAC ATE63X5B is a single acting pull cylinder with spring return, meaning the spring extends the rod and air retracts it. Its 63 mm bore delivers a net pull of 1320 N at 0.5 MPa, which translates to a safe working load of about 792 N or roughly 81 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.
The ISO 21287 compact body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making it ideal for tight spaces. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the hard-anodized aluminium body with S45C hard-chrome rod ensures durability. With a male rod thread and a 1/8" port, this model is ready for direct mounting in compact fixtures.

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 (Ø63mm)
| 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).

Where the Airtac ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE63X5B Is Used
Jig Clamping
Use in a CNC fixture to pull a clamp arm down onto a workpiece, providing a secure hold during machining with its 1320 N pull force.
Carton Tabbing
In a packaging line, this cylinder can retract a tab or flap on a carton before sealing, offering a compact solution for tight conveyor spaces.
Gate Valve Actuation
For a small gate valve in a process line, this cylinder's spring-extend, air-retract action can safely return the valve to a closed position on air failure.
Is the Airtac ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE63X5B the Right Cylinder?
For a lighter application, the ATE50X5B offers 775 N pull at 0.5 MPa, while the ATE80X5B provides 2159.1 N for heavier loads. This 63 mm bore model is a middle-ground choice, offering substantial force in a compact package. Remember, the spring returns the rod to its extended position on air loss, so it does not hold a mid-stroke position. The optional -S magnet is not fitted here, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be mounted without ordering that variant.
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 ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE63X5B FAQ
The ATE63X5B provides a net pull force of 1320 N at 0.5 MPa and 1903.2 N at 0.7 MPa, with the spring force already accounted for. The minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa, and the maximum is 1.0 MPa (145 psi).
No, this specific model (ATE63X5B) does not include the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be attached. To use sensors, you would need to order the -S variant, such as ATE63X5SB. The compact ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length compared to an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
