This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE25X100 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE25X100 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 ACP25X100
The AirTAC Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP25X100 is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 100mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE25X100 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP25X100
The ACP25X100 is a double acting compact cylinder in the discontinued AirTAC ACP DIN-standard series, with a 25 mm bore and 100 mm stroke on a 10 mm rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N, rising to 343.6 N push at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical peak of 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Its hard-anodized aluminium short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarding where a full-length body will not fit.
For real-world sizing, plan on roughly 147 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 12 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The fixed TPU bumper at each end only decelerates the piston; it never holds a load, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the position must be kept when air drops. The rod end is a female M6x1.0 thread and the port is M5x0.8. This model is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is ACE25X100, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE25X100 (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 ACE25X100 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 ACP25X100 Is Used
Small-parts clamping fixture
The 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa holds aluminium brackets or plastic housings in a CNC drilling jig, with the 100 mm stroke clearing the part for manual loading.
Conveyor line diverter
Mounted on an LB foot bracket, the cylinder pushes cartons or blister packs off a packaging conveyor between stations, running at up to 500 mm/s.
Lab sample press
In a diagnostic-kit assembly cell, the 25 mm bore presses stoppers into vials with about 12 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP25X100 with the ACE25X100
At 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, the 25 mm bore suits clamping and positioning loads up to about 15 kg of working force; step down to the 20 mm bore (157.1 N) for lighter tasks or up to the 32 mm bore (402.1 N) when more thrust is needed. The 100 mm stroke sits inside the 150 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalogue item, not a made-to-order length. Order the -S code if you want the optional magnet for CMSE or DMSE switches; without it no sensor can be fitted. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mountings are available. Since ACP is discontinued, specify ACE25X100 as the current replacement and verify the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE25X100
- ✓ 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 ACP25X100 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 343.6 N and pulls 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, and speed spans 30-500 mm/s.
The ACP series is out of production; the current drop-in is ACE25X100, the ISO 21287 successor in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the mounting dimensions before swapping. For sensing, order the -S version with the optional magnet so CMSE or DMSE switches can be mounted; the plain model carries no magnet.
