This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE100X25, 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 ACP100X25
The AirTAC ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X25 is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 25mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE100X25 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X25
The ACP100X25 is a double acting compact cylinder with a 100 mm bore and a short 25 mm stroke, built to the DIN-standard ACP format with a hard-anodized aluminium body and an S45C hard-chrome plated 25 mm rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 3681.6 N, rising to 5497.8 N on the extend stroke at 0.7 MPa - a theoretical ceiling of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating, and rod speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
Its short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this bore size was popular in heavy clamping fixtures and press heads with tight envelope limits. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production direct is the ACE100X25, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. The fixed TPU bumper at each end only softens end-of-travel impact.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE100X25 (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 ACE100X25 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 ACP100X25 Is Used
Heavy press-fit clamping
The 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa seats bearing housings or shaft collars in automotive assembly fixtures where the 25 mm stroke keeps the cylinder inside a shallow press head.
Injection mold latch locks
A short-stroke 100 mm bore swings heavy mold latch bars on the platen, with the 1/4" PT ports plumbed straight from the machine valve manifold.
Pallet stamping markers
About 240 kg of vertical force equivalent at 0.5 MPa drives a brand stamp or date die into pallet blocks on a packaging line, cycling at 30-500 mm/s.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X25 with the ACE100X25
At 100 mm bore this is the top of the ACP range: 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa versus 2513.3 N for the 80 mm bore, while the 63 mm bore tops out at 1558.6 N. If your clamp load sits under 1500 N, step down to 63 mm and save air consumption; if you need the full 3927 N class, this is the right bore. The 25 mm stroke keeps the body very short, well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. The rod ends in a female M16x1.5 thread and the air ports are 1/4" PT. Remember that a plain ACP drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. Position feedback requires the optional -S magnet code with CMSE or DMSE switches; without -S there is no magnet in the piston. Order the ACE100X25 instead, since ACP is discontinued.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE100X25
- ✓ 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 ACP100X25 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the extend stroke produces 3927 N and the retract stroke 3681.6 N. At 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 5497.8 N push and 5154.2 N pull. The theoretical maximum is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and rod speed spans 30-500 mm/s.
No - the ACP family is discontinued. The current-production successor is the ACE100X25 (swap the P for an E), an ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same 100 mm bore, 25 mm stroke and force class. Because the ACP was built to a DIN standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting hole pattern and accessory fit before you swap. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mountings carry over in the ACE family.
