This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE100X175B, 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 ACP100X175B is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 175mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE100X175B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACP100X175B is a double acting compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP series, with a 100 mm bore and a 175 mm stroke on a 25 mm hard-chrome S45C rod. Air drives the piston both ways, and a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end of the hard-anodized aluminium body. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 3681.6 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 5497.8 N and 5154.2 N, with a theoretical ceiling of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The male rod thread (B code) and 1/4" PT ports suit heavy clamping and press circuits. Note that this model is discontinued: the current-production direct is ACE100X175, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
Practically, plan on roughly 2356 N (about 240 kgf) of real work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating, which leaves margin for friction and pressure drop. The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, a real advantage in press frames and gantries. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s over 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Remember that without air the piston drifts freely - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check valve.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE100X175B (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 ACE100X175B 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. |
| ×175 | 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 (5497.8 N at 0.7 MPa) drives staking and forming heads on aluminium extrusion assemblies, with the 175 mm stroke clearing part loading in a tight press body.
A 25 mm rod and roughly 200 kg vertical-lift capacity with margin suit lifting stopper gates on warehouse conveyor lines, where the short body fits under low guard rails.
Clamping steel brackets on an engine machining line: the male rod thread takes an I/Y knuckle, and the compact body saves about 50% of the length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder inside the fixture.
At 100 mm bore this is the top of the ACP range: 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa where an 80 mm bore gives 2513.3 N and there is no larger ACP option - step to a larger ACE bore if you need more. Stroke 175 mm sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. The B code gives a male rod thread; order without it for a female M16x1.5 rod end. If you need position sensing, the optional -S magnet code enables CMSE / DMSE switches - this version has no magnet fitted. Mount with FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis brackets on the ISO 21287 face. Since ACP is discontinued, order ACE100X175 as the current direct and verify ISO 21287 mounting dimensions first.
Replacement checklist
Push is 3927 N and pull 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa push is 5497.8 N and pull 5154.2 N, with a theoretical maximum of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is double acting with a 100 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, 25 mm rod, 1/4" PT ports, male rod thread (B code), fixed TPU bumpers, speed 30-500 mm/s, operating pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and -20 to +70 C temperature range. The model is discontinued; ACE100X175 is the current replacement.
The hard-anodized aluminium body follows the short ISO 21287-class format, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight press frames and gantries. The fixed TPU pads at both ends only soften end-of-travel contact - they do not slow the mid-stroke or hold a load, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put when air is lost. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis brackets bolt to the standard face, and the optional -S magnet code allows CMSE / DMSE switches on the body.
