This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE100X90B, 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 ACP100X90B is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 90mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE100X90B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACP100X90B is a double acting compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP family, with a 100 mm bore, 90 mm stroke and a male rod thread (the B code). Air drives the rod in both directions, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end simply decelerates travel. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681.6 N, rising to 5497.8 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical peak of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Its short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into presses and gantries where a full-length body cannot.
The hard-anodized aluminium body carries 1/4" ports, the S45C hard-chrome rod is 25 mm, and the magnet is not fitted here: order the -S code if you need CMSE or DMSE switch sensing. Note this model is discontinued; the current-production direct is ACE100X90, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE100X90B (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 ACE100X90B 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. |
| ×90 | 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) seats large castings in a 90 mm-stroke fixture on an automotive machining line, with the short body fitting inside the press guard.
In a coil-processing plant, the 100 mm bore indexes heavy steel coils on a conveyor stop, using the LB foot mounting and 1/4" ports on the hard-anodized aluminium body.
At this force class, 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa covers heavy clamping and lifting; if your load needs under about 2513 N, the 80 mm bore (ACP80) is the smaller step, and there is no larger standard bore in the family. Stroke 90 mm sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 100, so it is a catalogue item. Remember the piston 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 mountings bolt to the same face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches. Order ACE100X90 as the current replacement for this discontinued model.
Replacement checklist
At 0.5 MPa it delivers 3927 N push and 3681.6 N pull; at 0.7 MPa, 5497.8 N push and 5154.2 N pull; theoretical maximum is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof, speed 30-500 mm/s, and a usable rule of thumb is about 2356 N of real work at 0.5 MPa. The model is discontinued, so specify ACE100X90 for new builds and confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions.
The B code gives a male rod thread on the 25 mm S45C hard-chrome rod, with PT ports on the hard-anodized aluminium body. This unit has no magnet fitted: the optional -S code adds the magnet so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted. The fixed TPU bumpers at both ends only decelerate end-of-travel and never hold a load.
