This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE100X10B, 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.

The AirTAC ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X10B is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE100X10B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
A double acting DIN-standard compact cylinder, the ACP100X10B pairs a 100 mm bore with a short 10 mm stroke and a male rod thread (B code). At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681.6 N, rising to 5497.8 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical ceiling of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod keep the short build rigid, and fixed TPU bumpers sit at both ends. Note that this model is discontinued; the current-production direct is the ISO 21287 ACE100X10 in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into clamping stations and press fixtures where a full-length body will not fit. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed range 30-500 mm/s, and the 1/4" port depends only on the 100 mm bore.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE100X10B (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.
| 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 ACE100X10B produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.
| ACP | DIN compact cylinder (double-acting, discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 100 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×10 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing (omit for no magnet). |
| B | Rod type: B = male thread; blank = female thread. |
Replacement mapping (swap P for E): ACP→ACE, ASP→ASE, ATP→ATE, ACPD→ACED, ACPJ→ACEJ. ACP-family: ACP (double acting), ASP / ATP (single acting push / pull), ACPD (double rod), ACPJ (double rod, adjustable stroke).
The 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa and 10 mm stroke suit a compact bench press that marks or stakes bearing caps on an automotive assembly line, where the short body fits under a low guard.
A CNC fixture clamping aluminium billets before a facing cut can use the 100 mm bore: about 2356 N of usable clamp force at 0.5 MPa holds the part without deforming it.
The 10 mm stroke and 30-500 mm/s speed range make this a fit for kicking filled cartons off a conveyor stop plate in a food packaging plant, with the male rod thread taking a formed pusher plate.
Size both ways before committing: the 80 mm bore delivers 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa and suits lighter clamps, while stepping up is not possible within this family since 100 mm is the largest bore. If your press or clamp needs a held position under power loss, remember a plain ACP drifts when the valve centres - add a rod lock or pilot check valve. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis brackets bolt to the same face, and CMSE / DMSE switches require the optional -S magnet, which this unit does not carry. Order ACE100X10 as the current replacement and confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions, since the ACP follows the older DIN standard.
Replacement checklist
At 0.5 MPa the double-acting cylinder pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681.6 N. At 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 5497.8 N push and 5154.2 N pull. The theoretical maximum is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
Yes. The ACP100X10B is no longer in production; the current-production successor is the ACE100X10, an ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same 100 mm bore, 10 mm stroke and force class. Before swapping, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture, because the ACP was built to the older DIN standard. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis options carry over, and the fixed TPU bumpers at both ends remain part of the design.
