This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE100X100SB, the same code under the new prefix. The ACE replacement is a current-production ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same bore, stroke and force class, with a matching short body and the same mounting-accessory family, so it fits the same envelope. Confirm mounting-interface dimensions against the ACE datasheet before ordering.
Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X100SB
The AirTAC ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X100SB is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE100X100SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X100SB
A double acting compact cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 100 mm stroke, the ACP100X100SB pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa, rising to 5497.8 N at 0.7 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome 25 mm rod keeps the mounting length roughly half that of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into presses, clamping gantries and heavy fixture plates where a full-length body will not fit. The B code gives a male rod thread and the S code fits the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted for end-of-stroke sensing.
This model is discontinued and is no longer in production; the current direct is the ISO 21287 ACE100X100, which matches the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, because the ACP was built to the DIN standard. A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s across 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) of clean, 40 um filtered air.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE100X100SB (ISO 21287) carries the same bore/stroke/force class; confirm mounting-interface dimensions against the ACE datasheet before installation. Rod type: female thread (blank) or male thread (B). Thread options: PT (blank) / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | 5154 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The ACE100X100SB produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Where the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X100SB Is Used
Heavy fixture clamping
Clamps large weld fixtures or machining jigs with about 240 kg of usable push force at 0.5 MPa, and the short body fits inside the fixture footprint.
Press and stamping assist
Provides 3927 N of push for small forming, marking or ejection stations on assembly lines where a full-length cylinder cannot be mounted.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X100SB with the ACE100X100SB
At this force class the 100 mm bore delivers 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa; step down to the 80 mm bore (2513 N push) if the load is lighter, or note that 100 mm is the largest bore in the family, so any higher force needs a larger cylinder type. The 100 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. Choose the male rod thread (B) with a rod knuckle if the tooling pivots, and pick FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB or FTC mounting to match the fixture. Remember that the piston drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. Order the ACE100X100 instead, since this ACP model is discontinued.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE100X100SB
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force class
- ✓ Confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S for magnet if you need sensors
Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X100SB FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681.6 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 5497.8 N and pull to 5154.2 N. The theoretical maximum is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1/4" ports and a 25 mm male rod thread.
Order the ACE100X100, the ISO 21287 successor made by swapping the P for an E. It matches the same 100 mm bore, 100 mm stroke and force class with a similarly short hard-anodized aluminium body and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. Because the ACP was DIN-standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. The -S magnet option carries over, so CMSE or DMSE switches remain available, and FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB and FTC mountings bolt to the same face family.
