This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE25X10 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE25X10 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 ACP25X10
The AirTAC Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP25X10 is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 10mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE25X10 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP25X10
The ACP25X10 is a double acting DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 25 mm bore and a short 10 mm stroke, driven by air in both directions and fitted with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 343.6 N and 288.6 N, with a theoretical peak of 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries M5x0.8 ports, and the rod ends in a female M6x1.0 thread.
Its short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures and guarding. As a practical sizing rule, plan on about 147 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting roughly 12 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that this unit is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is the ACE25X10, and buyers should confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. Position holding is not built in - if the load must stay put when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check valve.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE25X10 (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 (Ø25mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 245 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
The ACE25X10 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 ACP25X10 Is Used
Small-part ejector on assembly stations
The 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa is enough to kick stamped terminals or plastic caps off a nest, and the 10 mm stroke keeps the mechanism inside a compact tooling plate.
Bench-top crimping and marking jig
About 12 kg of vertical lift capability with a 2:1 margin suits light crimp or dot-peen heads on electronics harness work, where the short body fits under a fixed frame.
Slide positioning in test fixtures
With the optional -S magnet and CMSE or DMSE switches, the 10 mm travel gives repeatable end-of-stroke signals for go/no-go gauging of connectors.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP25X10 with the ACE25X10
At 25 mm bore this model sits mid-range: the 16 mm bore gives 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa for lighter clamping, while the 32 mm bore reaches 402.1 N when you need more force in the same short envelope. The 10 mm stroke is well inside the 150 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. Mounting brackets (FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis) bolt to the standard face, and if you need position feedback, order the -S code so CMSE or DMSE switches can be fitted - without -S there is no magnet. For new projects, specify the ACE25X10 instead, as this ACP version is discontinued.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE25X10
- ✓ 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 ACP25X10 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N. At 0.7 MPa the push is 343.6 N and the pull 288.6 N. The theoretical maximum is 50.1 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, speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, and -20 to +70 C temperature.
The short ISO 21287-class aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis brackets available. The ACP25X10 itself is discontinued; the current-production equivalent is the ACE25X10 in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before ordering the swap.
