This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE20X200 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE20X200 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.
Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP20X200
The AirTAC Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP20X200 is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm 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 ACE20X200 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP20X200
A double acting compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP series, the ACP20X200 pairs a 20 mm bore with a 200 mm stroke, a 10 mm hard-chrome S45C rod and a female M6x1.0 rod thread on a hard-anodized aluminium body. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 157.1 N and pulls 117.8 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 219.9 N push and 164.9 N pull, with a theoretical peak of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into cramped jigs and guarding where a full-length body cannot.
Plan on about 94 N of real work at 0.5 MPa (roughly 60% of the rated push) rather than the full 157.1 N, which translates to lifting about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The 200 mm stroke is longer than the 100 mm standard maximum for this bore, so it is made to order. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is ACE20X200, which matches the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. The optional -S code adds the magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches; without it there is no magnet.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE20X200 (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 (Ø20mm)
| 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 ACE20X200 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 ACP20X200 Is Used
Small-parts ejector
The 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa ejects machined bushings or stamped clips off a fixture, with the 200 mm reach clearing deep die pockets.
Lab sample press
About 94 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa presses microscope-slide holders or test-tube caps in benchtop automation where space is tight.
Belt-line gate pusher
The long 200 mm stroke diverts cosmetic cartons or blister packs across a narrow conveyor lane, retracting fully within a compact frame.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP20X200 with the ACE20X200
At 157.1 N push and 117.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, the 20 mm bore suits light clamping and positioning; step down to the 16 mm bore (100.5 N push) for tighter loads or up to the 25 mm bore (245.4 N push) when you need headroom. Remember a plain ACP drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mountings bolt to the same face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switch sensing. This model is discontinued; order ACE20X200 as the current replacement and verify ISO 21287 mounting dimensions.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE20X200
- ✓ 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 ACP20X200 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 157.1 N and pulls 117.8 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 219.9 N and pulls 164.9 N; theoretical maximum is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, air filtered to 40 um, speed 30-500 mm/s and -20 to +70 C. The 200 mm stroke exceeds the 100 mm standard maximum for this bore, so it is made to order.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with fixed TPU bumpers at both ends that simply decelerate the piston - they do not hold or brake a load. The magnet is optional: order the -S code to fit CMSE / DMSE switches. ACP20X200 is discontinued; ACE20X200 is the current ISO 21287 drop-in successor in the same force class - confirm mounting dimensions before swapping.
