This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE25X35 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE25X35 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 ACP25X35 is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 35mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE25X35 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACP25X35 is a double acting DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 25 mm bore and 35 mm stroke, pushing 245.4 N and pulling 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa (343.6 N / 288.6 N at 0.7 MPa). Its hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod runs at 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um, across 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Fixed TPU bumpers sit at both ends of the stroke.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures and guarding. In practice, plan on roughly 147 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 15 kg vertically - or about 7 kg with a 2:1 margin. This model is discontinued; the current-production drop-in is ACE25X35, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE25X35 (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 | 245 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
The ACE25X35 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). |
|---|---|
| 25 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×35 | 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 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa secures aluminium brackets in a CNC drilling jig, with the 35 mm stroke clearing part load and unload.
At the end of a carton conveyor, the cylinder nudges boxes into a lane; the short body fits under the guard rail where space is tight.
A benchtop sample-prep station uses the 25 mm bore to press caps onto vials, relying on the 206.2 N pull for clean retraction.
At 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, the 25 mm bore sits between the 20 mm (157.1 N) and 32 mm (402.1 N) sizes - step down for lighter clamping, up if the tooling mass grows. The 35 mm stroke is well inside the 150 mm standard limit for this bore. This unit has a female M6x1.0 rod thread and PT ports; order the -S code if you later need CMSE / DMSE switch sensing, since no magnet is fitted without it. For new builds, specify ACE25X35 instead.
Replacement checklist
Push is 245.4 N and pull is 206.2 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 343.6 N and pull to 288.6 N, with a theoretical maximum of 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is a double acting compact cylinder, 25 mm bore, 35 mm stroke, 10 mm rod, M5x0.8 ports, female M6x1.0 rod thread, speed 30-500 mm/s, operating pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature -20 to +70 C.
No - the ACP family is discontinued. The current-production replacement is ACE25X35, the ISO 21287 successor in the same bore, stroke and force class. Because the ACP was built to the DIN standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions and the FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis interfaces before swapping.
