This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE20X110 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE20X110 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 ACP20X110 is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm 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 ACE20X110 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACP20X110 is a double acting DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 20 mm bore and a 110 mm stroke. Air drives the rod out and back, and a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end of the hard-anodized aluminium body. The 10 mm S45C hard-chrome rod carries a female M6x1.0 thread, and the air port is M5x0.8. Its short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits tight jigs and guarding where a full-length body cannot.
At 0.5 MPa this bore pushes 157.1 N and pulls 117.8 N; at 0.7 MPa it reaches 219.9 N push. In practice plan on roughly 94 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note the 110 mm stroke is beyond the 100 mm standard limit for bore 20, so it is a made-to-order build. This model is discontinued; the current drop-in is the ACE20X110, which matches the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE20X110 (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 | 157 N | 118 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 220 N | 165 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 32 kgf | |
The ACE20X110 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). |
|---|---|
| 20 | 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 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa clamps small aluminium brackets in drilling jigs, and the short body tucks inside fixture plates where a full-length cylinder will not fit.
With about 8 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the 110 mm stroke ejects small plastic housings from a molding nest or pushes parts off a conveyor stop.
Order the -S magnet code to run CMSE or DMSE switches for end-of-stroke detection on a small pick-and-place slide; without -S there is no magnet fitted.
Size the load first: at 0.5 MPa the 20 mm bore gives 157.1 N push, while a 16 mm bore offers only 100.5 N and a 25 mm bore steps up to 245.4 N. If the load must stay put when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check valve - this cylinder drifts when the valve centres. The 110 mm stroke is non-standard for bore 20 (standard tops out at 100 mm), so order it as a made-to-order unit. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mountings bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the optional -S magnet code enables CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S there is no magnet. For new designs, order the ACE20X110 instead - this ACP model is discontinued.
Replacement checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 157.1 N and pulls 117.8 N; at 0.7 MPa, 219.9 N push and 164.9 N pull; theoretical maximum is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is a double acting compact cylinder, 20 mm bore, 110 mm stroke (non-standard, made to order), 10 mm rod with female M6x1.0 thread, M5x0.8 port, operating pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, fixed TPU bumpers both ends.
Order the ACE20X110: swap the P for an E and you get the current-production ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same 20 mm bore, 110 mm stroke and force class. Because the ACP was built to a DIN standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions (body length, port position and mounting holes) against your fixture before swapping.
