This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE100X225S, 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 ACP100X225S
The AirTAC ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X225S is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 225mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE100X225S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X225S
The ACP100X225S is a discontinued DIN-standard compact cylinder that works double acting: air both extends and retracts its 25 mm rod across a 225 mm stroke. At the 100 mm bore it delivers 3927 N push and 3681.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 5497.8 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical peak of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into heavy gantries and press fixtures where a full-length body cannot. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and rod speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
Because this unit carries the optional -S magnet, CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be fitted for end-of-stroke signalling on long travels. The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod shrug off shop-floor wear, and fixed TPU bumpers pad both ends of travel. For new builds, order the current-production ACE100X225 instead and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE100X225S (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 ACE100X225S 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 ACP100X225S Is Used
Die clamp actuation on stamping presses
With 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, the 100 mm bore clamps heavy stamping dies in press fixtures, while the 225 mm stroke clears deep die pockets for changeover.
Gate and guard driving on foundry lines
Air extends and retracts the rod across 225 mm to swing heavy foundry gates, and the fitted -S magnet feeds CMSE / DMSE switch signals back to the line PLC at each end.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X225S with the ACE100X225S
At 100 mm bore this is near the top of the range: 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your load needs under 2513 N, the 80 mm bore does the same job in a smaller envelope; if you need beyond 5497.8 N at 0.7 MPa, twin cylinders or a larger bore is the next step. The 225 mm stroke sits inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalogue item, not a made-to-order build. Note that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis, and the -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches. This model is discontinued; the direct successor is ACE100X225 - verify ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before ordering.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE100X225S
- ✓ 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 ACP100X225S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681.6 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 5497.8 N with pull at 5154.2 N, and the theoretical maximum is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The bore is 100 mm, stroke 225 mm, rod 25 mm with an M16x1.5 female thread, port size 1/4", operating pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature -20 to +70 C and speed 30-500 mm/s. It is double acting with fixed TPU bumpers at both ends.
Order the ACE100X225, the current-production ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you get the same 100 mm bore, 225 mm stroke and force class in a matching short body. Because the ACP was built to a DIN standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before swapping. The ACE family also carries the FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounting options, and the -S magnet code keeps CMSE / DMSE switch compatibility.
