This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE100X150, 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 ACP100X150
The AirTAC ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X150 is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE100X150 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X150
A double acting compact cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 150 mm stroke, the ACP100X150 pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa, rising to 5497.8 N on extension at 0.7 MPa. The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into heavy presses, clamping fixtures and gantries where a full-length body will not fit. Air supply runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s with a fixed TPU bumper at each end.
This model is discontinued and no longer in production; the current direct is the ACE100X150, which matches the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP follows the older DIN-standard footprint. For positioning duty, note that the rod drifts when air is lost, so pair it with a rod lock or pilot check valve if a load must stay put.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE100X150 (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 ACE100X150 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 ACP100X150 Is Used
Baling press ram
The 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa drives a small scrap-baling or briquetting ram through a 150 mm compacted stroke inside a tight frame.
Clamp fixture on a machining centre
LB foot mounting holds a heavy workpiece fixture closed against 3681.6 N of pull-side force during milling of aluminium castings.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X150 with the ACE100X150
At this bore size the step either way is significant: an 80 mm bore delivers 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up is not possible within the family since 100 mm is the largest bore. Choose the 100 mm bore when your die or clamp needs over 3500 N of holding force. The 150 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalogue item, not a made-to-order build. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mountings bolt to the same face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches if end-of-stroke sensing is needed. Order the ACE100X150 for new projects.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE100X150
- ✓ 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 ACP100X150 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681.6 N. At 0.7 MPa the push rises to 5497.8 N and the pull to 5154.2 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 800.9 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and rod speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
Order the ACE100X150, the current-production ISO 21287 successor. Swap the P for an E and you get the same 100 mm bore, 150 mm stroke and force class in a matching short body with the same FA/FB, LB and CA/CB mounting family. Because the ACP is DIN-standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before the swap. The 1/4" port and M16x1.5 female rod thread carry over on the ACE.
