This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE16X110SB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE16X110SB in place of this model. 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 Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP16X110SB is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 110mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE16X110SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
Double acting on both strokes, the ACP16X110SB is a DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 16 mm bore and a made-to-order 110 mm stroke - longer than the 75 mm standard limit for this bore, so it is built to order. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 75.4 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 140.7 N and 105.6 N, with a theoretical ceiling of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The male rod thread (B code) and the optional -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches are both built into this code. The 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), 30-500 mm/s, from -20 to +70 C, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into slim slides and guarded assemblies. In practice, plan on about 60 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 5 kg vertically once you keep a 2:1 margin. This model is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is ACE16X110, same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE16X110SB (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 | 101 N | 75 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 141 N | 106 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 21 kgf | |
The ACE16X110SB 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). |
|---|---|
| 16 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×110 | 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 (adjustable stroke).
The 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa is enough to seat snap caps on 30-50 ml cosmetic bottles, and the long 110 mm stroke clears tall necks on a small rotary capper.
With the -S magnet fitted, CMSE or DMSE switches confirm each 110 mm index move on an electronics assembly conveyor, keeping the slide inside a tight 50%-shorter envelope.
A machining fixture uses the male rod thread to drive an ejection pin that lifts about 5 kg steel parts clear of the nest after each drilling cycle.
Size against the neighbours: a 12 mm bore gives only 56.5 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 20 mm bore reaches 157.1 N, so the 16 mm bore at 100.5 N sits mid-range for light clamping and part ejection. The 110 mm stroke exceeds the 75 mm standard maximum for this bore, so order it as a non-standard build. This unit carries the -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches can be added for end-of-stroke detection, and the male rod thread suits I/Y knuckles. A plain cylinder of this type drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. Order ACE16X110 as the current replacement and verify ISO 21287 mounting dimensions.
Replacement checklist
At 0.5 MPa the 16 mm bore delivers 100.5 N push and 75.4 N pull; at 0.7 MPa it reaches 140.7 N push and 105.6 N pull, with a theoretical maximum of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, -20 to +70 C. For real work, budget about 60 N of push, which lifts roughly 5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
The standard stroke limit for the 16 mm bore is 75 mm, so 110 mm is a made-to-order build. The ACP family is discontinued; the current-production successor is ACE16X110 - swap the P for an E - which matches the same bore, stroke and force class in the ISO 21287 short-body format. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before converting your fixture, since the ACP followed the DIN standard.
