This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE100X10S, 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 ACP100X10S 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 ACE100X10S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACP100X10S is a double acting DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 100 mm bore and a short 10 mm stroke, fitted with the optional -S magnet so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted directly on the body. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 3681.6 N, rising to 5497.8 N push at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical peak of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod run on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this bore size fits clamping stations, press fixtures and gantry Z-axes where a full-length body will not. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production direct is ACE100X10, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE100X10S (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 ACE100X10S 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).
A 10 mm stroke is ideal for swaging or press-locating bearing housings in automotive fixtures; 3927 N at 0.5 MPa seats parts without a full hydraulic press.
Short-stroke hold-down clamps on car-body weld jigs use the 100 mm bore to hold steel panels against locating pins through the full weld cycle.
Kicking heavy product gates between lanes needs high force over a tiny travel; the 2356 N usable push and 10 mm stroke suit diverter plates on filling lines.
For a 10 mm stroke doing heavy clamping or short-lift work, the 100 mm bore gives 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa; if your load is under about 2400 N, the 80 mm bore (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) saves space and air. If you need more, there is no larger ACP bore, so move to a larger ACE. The 10 mm stroke is well within the 300 mm max standard stroke for this bore. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounts bolt to the same face family as the ACE. A plain cylinder does not hold load when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve for held positions. Order ACE100X10 as the current replacement and verify ISO 21287 mounting dimensions.
Replacement checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681.6 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 5497.8 N and pulls 5154.2 N. Theoretical maximum is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C. The 25 mm rod ends in a female M16x1.5 thread and the air port is 1/4" (PT).
No - the ACP family is discontinued. The current-production replacement is ACE100X10, the same bore, stroke and force class in the ISO 21287 short body; confirm the mounting dimensions before swapping. This -S version carries the optional magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be fitted for end-position sensing; without the -S code there is no magnet. Both ends have a fixed TPU bumper, and mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis.
