This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE100X60B, 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 ACP100X60B
The AirTAC ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X60B is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 60mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE100X60B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X60B
A double acting compact cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 60 mm stroke, the ACP100X60B pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa, rising to 5497.8 N at 0.7 MPa. The B code gives a male rod thread on the 25 mm rod, and the 1/4" port matches this bore size. Note that this model is discontinued; the current-production direct is the ACE100X60, which keeps the same bore, stroke and force class.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters in press fixtures and gantries where every millimetre counts. A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; without that code no magnet is fitted. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE100X60B (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 ACE100X60B 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 ACP100X60B Is Used
Bench press fixture
With 3927 N of push at 0.5 MPa, the 100 mm bore clinches or stakes aluminium brackets on a fabrication bench without a hydraulic unit.
Pallet gate actuator
The 60 mm stroke swings or lifts a conveyor gate at a dock, and the short body fits inside the guard frame where a full-length cylinder will not.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP100X60B with the ACE100X60B
At this force class the ACP100X60B sits near the top of the range: bore 80 delivers 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, while this 100 mm bore gives 3927 N. If 60 mm of travel is more than the job needs, a shorter stroke in the same bore keeps the footprint tighter. Remember that a plain cylinder of this type drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounts suit the ISO 21287 face, and ordering the -S code adds the magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches. Before ordering, confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions on the ACE100X60 replacement.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE100X60B
- ✓ 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 ACP100X60B FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681.6 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 5497.8 N and pulls 5154.2 N. The theoretical maximum is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is double acting, runs 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um, and takes a 1/4" port. This model is discontinued, so confirm ISO 21287 dimensions on the ACE100X60 before swapping.
Sensing needs the optional -S magnet code; the base ACP100X60B has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches only work when -S is ordered. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and CA/CB clevises bolt to the ISO 21287 mounting face, and the fixed TPU bumpers at each end simply decelerate the rod. The current-production replacement is the ACE100X60.
