This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE25X80SB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE25X80SB 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 ACP25X80SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP25X80SB is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 80mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE25X80SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP25X80SB
The ACP25X80SB is a double acting compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP series, with a 25 mm bore and an 80 mm stroke. Air drives the rod in both directions, and fixed TPU bumpers at each end absorb end-of-travel impact. 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 maximum of 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The B code gives a male rod thread on the 10 mm rod, and the S code fits the optional magnet so CMSE or DMSE switches can report position. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at speeds of 30-500 mm/s.
This model is discontinued; the current-production replacement is ACE25X80, which swaps the P for an E and matches the same bore, stroke and force class in the ISO 21287 family. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it suits tight jigs and guards. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 147 N of real work at 0.5 MPa - about 15 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin - rather than the full rating. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP is DIN-standard.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE25X80SB (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 ACE25X80SB 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 ACP25X80SB Is Used
Small-parts clamping fixture
With 245.4 N of push at 0.5 MPa, the 25 mm bore clamps aluminium brackets or plastic housings in a CNC drilling jig, and the 80 mm stroke clears part loading by hand.
Carton reject pusher
On a packaging line, the short body slots into a narrow guard where a full-length cylinder will not fit, kicking misaligned cartons off the conveyor at up to 500 mm/s.
Position-verified lift station
The fitted -S magnet lets CMSE or DMSE switches confirm up and down positions on a small assembly lift rated for roughly 15 kg vertical load with a 2:1 margin.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP25X80SB with the ACE25X80SB
Size both ways before ordering: a 20 mm bore delivers 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa and suits lighter clamping, while a 32 mm bore reaches 402.1 N for heavier fixtures. If your load must stay put when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check valve - a plain ACP25X80SB will drift. The 80 mm stroke sits well inside the 150 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalogue item, not made to order. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounts bolt straight to the face, and the male rod thread takes I/Y knuckles directly. Order ACE25X80 for current production and verify the ISO 21287 footprint first.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE25X80SB
- ✓ 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 ACP25X80SB 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. The model is discontinued. The current drop-in is ACE25X80 - swap the P for an E - in the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, because the ACP is DIN-standard.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with threaded aluminium covers keeps the mounting length about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits compact jigs and gantries. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted on either end for position feedback. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends soften end-of-travel impact, and the male rod thread accepts standard knuckle brackets.
