This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE100X225SB, 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 ACP100X225SB
The AirTAC ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X225SB 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 ACE100X225SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X225SB
The ACP100X225SB is a double acting compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP series, with a 100 mm bore driving a 25 mm hard-chromed S45C rod through a 225 mm stroke. Air extends and retracts the piston, a fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, and the hard-anodized aluminium body keeps the overall length about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into heavy presses, gantries and clamping fixtures where a full-length body will not fit. With the -S magnet fitted, CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted anywhere along the barrel.
At 0.5 MPa this bore pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681.6 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 5497.8 N. Note that this model is discontinued: the current-production direct is the ISO 21287 ACE100X225, so confirm mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE100X225SB (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 ACE100X225SB 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 ACP100X225SB Is Used
Heavy clamping on machining fixtures
The 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa clamps steel castings in CNC milling and drilling fixtures, with the 225 mm stroke clearing part loading space.
Press-fit and staking stations
With about 240 kg of usable force at 0.5 MPa, the bore handles bushing pressing, staking and rivet-forming on small assembly lines.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X225SB with the ACE100X225SB
Size against the neighbours: a 80 mm bore gives 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up is not possible because 100 mm is the largest bore in the family, so if 3927 N is marginal at 0.5 MPa raise the supply pressure toward 0.7 MPa (5497.8 N push) or add a second cylinder. The 225 mm stroke sits inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalogue item. Remember the plain cylinder drifts when air is lost; add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis and related brackets bolt to the mounting face, and the male rod thread (B code) suits I/Y knuckles. Order the ACE100X225 as the current replacement and verify ISO 21287 dimensions.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE100X225SB
- ✓ 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 ACP100X225SB FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681.6 N; at 0.7 MPa push is 5497.8 N and pull 5154.2 N; theoretical maximum is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, speed 30-500 mm/s, and air filtered to 40 um. For real work, size on about 2356 N (240 kg) rather than the full rating, and note the fixed TPU bumper only decelerates at the ends - it never holds a load.
Order the ACE100X225, the ISO 21287 successor that swaps the P for an E and matches the same 100 mm bore, 225 mm stroke and force class. Because the ACP was DIN-standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. Your unit carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE and DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be used; the ACE family offers the same magnet option. The 1/4" port and male rod thread carry over in the same class.
