About the Airtac ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE63X5SB
This AirTAC ATE63X5SB is a single acting pull cylinder with spring return, built to ISO 21287 compact dimensions. The spring extends the rod while air retracts it, delivering a net pull of 1320 N at 0.5 MPa, with a minimum working pressure of 0.2 MPa to overcome the spring. Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making it ideal for tight fixtures where space is at a premium.
The 63 mm bore pairs with a 16 mm hard-chrome plated S45C rod and a 1/8" port, while the male rod thread (B code) simplifies direct coupling. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so you can mount CMSE or DMSE reed switches for position sensing. For a safe vertical lift, plan for about 80 kg at 0.5 MPa (1320 N divided by 9.81, then halved for a 2:1 margin), which helps you match real part weights without overloading the cylinder.

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 ATE63X5SB Is Used
Fixture Clamping
In a CNC machining fixture, this 5 mm stroke pull cylinder retracts a locating pin or clamp arm with 1320 N at 0.5 MPa, freeing operators from manual locking and ensuring repeatable part positioning.
Carton Tabbing
On a packaging line, the ATE63X5SB pulls a tab or flap into place during sealing. The short stroke and 80 kg safe vertical lift handle light cartons reliably, while the compact body fits between conveyor rails.
Gantry Stop
In an automated gantry, this cylinder retracts a stop pin to release a pallet. The spring extends the pin when air is off, providing a fail-safe that blocks the pallet path, and the 1/8" port simplifies air routing.
Is the Airtac ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE63X5SB the Right Cylinder?
For a lighter pull, consider the ATE50X25 with a 775 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the ATE80X25 for 2159.1 N at the same pressure. Since this is a single acting pull cylinder, it returns to the extended position on air loss, so it cannot hold a mid-stroke load. The 5 mm stroke suits short indexing or clamping tasks, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE or DMSE sensors for position feedback. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, and FTC brackets, all compatible with the ISO 21287 face.
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 ATE63X5SB FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the pull force is 1320 N, and at 0.7 MPa it is 1903.2 N, both net of the return spring. The minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa, operating range is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi), and proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi). Speed range is 50-500 mm/s, and the port is 1/8".
No, the magnet is optional. This model includes the -S code, so it has the built-in magnet for CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches. Without the -S code, there is no magnet. The body is ISO 21287 compact, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and it uses a fixed TPU bumper at both ends.
