This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE100X120, 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 ACP100X120
The AirTAC ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X120 is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 120mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE100X120 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X120
A double acting compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP series, the ACP100X120 pairs a 100 mm bore with a 120 mm stroke and delivers 3927 N push and 3681.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa (5497.8 N push at 0.7 MPa). The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) of filtered air at 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. Note that this model is discontinued; the current-production successor is the ACE100X120.
Because the short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it suits heavy clamping in tight presses, weld fixtures and gantries. At 0.5 MPa the push force equates to about 400 kgf, so plan on roughly 240 kg of usable vertical lift with a sensible margin. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounts bolt to the standard face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches when ordered.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE100X120 (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 ACE100X120 produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

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).
Where the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X120 Is Used
Heavy press-fit clamping
The 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa seats bearings or bushings in automotive machining fixtures, with the 120 mm stroke clearing part load-out.
Weld fixture hold-down
Clamps thick steel plate in body-in-white jig lines; the short body fits between fixture rails where a full-length cylinder cannot.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X120 with the ACE100X120
For a 120 mm stroke in this force class, compare the 80 mm bore (2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa) when space or air supply is tight, or step to the top of the range - this 100 mm bore is already the largest in the family at 3927 N. Remember the plain cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Order the -S code if you need CMSE / DMSE position switches, and choose FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis to match your fixture. This model is discontinued - specify the ACE100X120 and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE100X120
- ✓ 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 ACP100X120 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 3681.6 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 5497.8 N and pull to 5154.2 N. Theoretical maximum output at 1.0 MPa is 800.9 kgf. It is double acting on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered air, running 30-500 mm/s with a fixed TPU bumper at both ends.
No - the ACP family is discontinued. The current direct is the ACE100X120, an ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP was built to the DIN standard, and order the optional -S magnet if you need CMSE / DMSE switch sensing.
