This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE12X200SB, 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 ACP12X200SB
The AirTAC ACP Compact Cylinder ACP12X200SB is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø12mm bore and 200mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE12X200SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP12X200SB
A double acting compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP series, the ACP12X200SB pairs a 12 mm bore with a long 200 mm stroke and a male threaded rod end (B code). At 0.5 MPa it pushes 56.5 N and pulls 42.4 N, rising to 79.2 N push at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical ceiling of 11.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Its hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and 30-500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slides into slim fixtures and guarding. Because the 200 mm stroke exceeds the 50 mm standard limit for this bore, it is a made-to-order build. Note this model is discontinued: the current direct is ACE12X200, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE12X200SB (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 (Ø12mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 57 N | 42 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 79 N | 59 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 12 kgf | |
The ACE12X200SB 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 ACP12X200SB Is Used
Position-confirmed slide gate
The fitted -S magnet lets CMSE or DMSE switches confirm full retract on a small gate or interlock in a packaging machine, with the 200 mm stroke covering a long travel in a slim envelope.
Light-duty parts ejection
About 34 N of practical push at 0.5 MPa is enough to strip small stamped or moulded parts off a nest in electronics assembly, where the short body fits under a low press head.
Compact jig indexing
In a fixture where a full-length ISO 15552 profile cylinder would overhang the jig, the short body plus 200 mm made-to-order stroke indexes small components within a tight guard.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP12X200SB with the ACE12X200SB
At 56.5 N push and 42.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, this 12 mm bore suits light clamping and small-part ejection; step up to the 16 mm bore (100.5 N push) if you need nearly double the force, or down to nothing smaller since 12 mm is the smallest in the range. The male rod thread (B) with M3x0.5 female option covers most knuckle fittings. The S code means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE switches can be added for end-position sensing. A plain ACP drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. Order ACE12X200 as the current-production replacement and verify the ISO 21287 hole pattern first.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE12X200SB
- ✓ 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 ACP12X200SB FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 56.5 N and pulls 42.4 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 79.2 N push and 59.4 N pull, with a theoretical maximum of 11.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is a 12 mm bore, 200 mm stroke double acting cylinder with a 6 mm rod, M5x0.8 port, PT thread type, male rod thread (B), fixed TPU bumpers at both ends, 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) operating range, 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, -20 to +70 C temperature and 30-500 mm/s speed. The 200 mm stroke is non-standard for this bore and made to order.
Order the ACE12X200, the ISO 21287 successor made by swapping the P for an E. It matches the same 12 mm bore, 200 mm stroke and force class in a similarly short body, and accepts the same FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounting family. Because the ACP was DIN-standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before swapping. The -S magnet option carries over, so CMSE and DMSE switches still work for sensing.
