Airtac ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE80X5B
The AirTAC Airtac ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE80X5B is a genuine single acting, pull (spring return) ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 5mm 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.

About the Airtac ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE80X5B
This AirTAC ATE80X5B is a single acting pull cylinder with a spring return, engineered for compact automation spaces. At 0.5 MPa it delivers a net pull of 2159.1 N, and at 0.7 MPa that rises to 3101.6 N, giving you a clear force ceiling for light assembly tasks.
The ISO 21287 short body cuts about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slides into tight gantries and guard-enclosed fixtures. With a 5 mm stroke and a male rod thread, it suits precise, short-indexing movements. For a real-world load, plan on about 132 kg of vertical lift at 0.5 MPa with a 2:1 safety margin, which helps match it to a specific part weight without over-specifying.

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 | Pull force (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2159.1 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3101.6 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 ATE80X5B Is Used
Fixture Clamp Retraction
Use the ATE80X5B to pull a spring-loaded clamp open in a CNC fixture, freeing a part for quick changeover. Its 5 mm stroke matches the small clamp travel, and the 2159.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa clears even a stiff return spring.
Sorting Gate Pull
In a parcel sorting line, this cylinder retracts a diverter gate to redirect a box to a side chute. The short stroke and compact body fit between conveyor rollers, while the spring extend ensures the gate defaults to a safe position if air drops.
Small Die Toggle
Mount this cylinder on a stamping die to pull a locating pin out of a bushing before the die opens. The 80 mm bore provides ample force to overcome friction, and the fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs the end-of-stroke impact without shock.
Is the Airtac ATE Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ATE80X5B the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 80 mm bore model when you need a strong pull in a very short envelope, such as retracting a clamp or a small gate. If your force demand is lower, the 63 mm bore offers 1320.0 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to 100 mm gives 3483.6 N for heavier pulls. Remember, the spring extends the rod at rest, so it does not hold a mid-stroke position; it returns to extended on air loss. The male rod thread (B code) simplifies mounting with rod-end accessories, and the 1/4" port suits standard shop air lines.
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 ATE80X5B FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the net pull is 2159.1 N, and at 0.7 MPa it is 3101.6 N, both after accounting for the return spring. The operating pressure range is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi), with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). The minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa, below which the spring may not fully compress.
The ATE80X5B uses an ISO 21287 compact design, which is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. This lets you install it in confined areas like machine guards or robotic end-of-arm tooling. The hard-anodized aluminium body is durable, and the fixed TPU bumper at both ends handles end-of-stroke energy. Note that this model has no magnet, so it cannot accept CMSE or DMSE sensors unless you order the -S option.
