Airtac B52-ACE Non-Copper Compact Cylinder B52-ACE50X50SB
The AirTAC Airtac B52-ACE Non-Copper Compact Cylinder B52-ACE50X50SB is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 50mm 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 B52-ACE Non-Copper Compact Cylinder B52-ACE50X50SB
This is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder, the B52-ACE50X50SB, with a 50 mm bore and a 50 mm stroke. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight jigs and guarded machine zones where a full-length unit will not. The 16 mm hard-chrome rod delivers a 981.7 N push and 881.2 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and the fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke impact without any adjustment.
The B52- prefix marks AirTAC's copper-free (copper-prohibited) build of the ACE50X50SB, intended for lines where copper and copper alloys are not allowed, such as ammonia systems or certain battery and chemical plants. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted for position sensing. For a real workload at 0.5 MPa, plan on about 589 N of usable force, which lifts roughly 60 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin; confirm the exact copper-free material substitutions with us before ordering.

Where the Airtac B52-ACE Non-Copper Compact Cylinder B52-ACE50X50SB Is Used
Battery Cell Clamping
In a battery assembly line, this 50 mm bore compact cylinder with a 50 mm stroke clamps cell holders during tab welding, delivering 981.7 N of push at 0.5 MPa while fitting inside a guarded fixture.
Conveyor Stop Gate
Use it as a stop gate on a light conveyor in a chemical plant, where the copper-free build avoids contamination risk. The 50 mm stroke lifts a 60 kg load vertically with margin, and the fixed TPU bumper handles repeated cycling.
Ammonia Test Rig
In an ammonia-based refrigeration test rig, this copper-free cylinder actuates a small valve lever. The 1/8" port connects to filtered air, and the optional magnet lets a CMSE switch confirm the lever position.
Is the Airtac B52-ACE Non-Copper Compact Cylinder B52-ACE50X50SB the Right Cylinder?
Size this 50 mm bore unit against a 40 mm bore (628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa) if your load is lighter, or step up to a 63 mm bore (1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa) for a heavier push. The 50 mm stroke suits short transfer slides and clamping actions, and the male rod thread (B) simplifies coupling to a clevis or rod end. Since the magnet is fitted, order CMSE or DMSE switches for position feedback; without the -S code, no magnet would be present. For a load that must stay put when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check valve, as this cylinder does not hold position on its own.
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 0.15 – 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 Keep speed within the rated range; the TPU bumper absorbs stroke-end energy.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B52-ACE Non-Copper Compact Cylinder B52-ACE50X50SB FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 981.7 N and the pull force is 881.2 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 1374.4 N and pull is 1233.7 N. The theoretical maximum force is 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The B52- prefix designates AirTAC's copper-free (copper-prohibited) version of the ACE50X50SB, for applications where copper alloys are not permitted, such as ammonia systems. The body is an ISO 21287 compact design, about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it saves mounting space. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE or DMSE switch mounting.
