This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE20X200SB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE20X200SB 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 ACP20X200SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP20X200SB 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 ACE20X200SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP20X200SB
The ACP20X200SB is a double acting DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 20 mm bore and a made-to-order 200 mm stroke, which is twice the 100 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. It pushes 157.1 N and pulls 117.8 N at 0.5 MPa, rising to 219.9 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical peak of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The male rod thread (B code) and the fitted optional -S magnet, which accepts CMSE / DMSE switches, are both built into this code.
Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so the long 200 mm stroke still fits shallow slides and guarding where a full-length body would not. As a working rule, plan for roughly 94 N (about 9.6 kg) of real work at 0.5 MPa, and expect it to lift about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that this model is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is ACE20X200, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE20X200SB (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 ACE20X200SB 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 ACP20X200SB Is Used
Lab sample elevator
Lifts about 8 kg of sample trays vertically in a compact analytical instrument, with the -S magnet and a DMSE switch confirming top-of-stroke at 200 mm.
Benchtop press assist
The 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa suits light snap-fit or labeling presses on crowded benches where the short ISO 21287-class body is the only fit.
Carton reject pusher
A 200 mm stroke sweeps misaligned cartons off a small packaging conveyor, with CMSE switches on the -S magnet reporting extend and retract.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP20X200SB with the ACE20X200SB
Size both ways: if 157.1 N at 0.5 MPa is more than the job needs, the 16 mm bore gives 100.5 N push; if the load is heavier, step up to the 25 mm bore at 245.4 N. The 200 mm stroke is non-standard for this bore and is made to order. Keep the FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis in mind when matching fixtures, and remember a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Order ACE20X200 as the current replacement.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE20X200SB
- ✓ 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 ACP20X200SB FAQ
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. The theoretical maximum is 32 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, temperature -20 to +70 C.
No - the bore 20 maximum standard stroke is 100 mm, so 200 mm is a made-to-order stroke. The ACP family is discontinued; the current-production drop-in is ACE20X200 in the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP is DIN-standard.
