This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE25X90 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE25X90 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 ACP25X90
The AirTAC Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP25X90 is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 90mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE25X90 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP25X90
The ACP25X90 is a double acting compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP series, with a 25 mm bore and 90 mm stroke on a 10 mm hard-chrome S45C rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 343.6 N and 288.6 N, with a theoretical maximum of 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and fixed TPU bumpers sit at both ends.
Its short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight fixture plates and sliding guards. As a rule of thumb, plan on about 147 N (roughly 15 kg of thrust) for real work at 0.5 MPa, which vertically lifts about 7 kg with a 2:1 margin. Note this unit is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is the ACE25X90, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE25X90 (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 ACE25X90 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 ACP25X90 Is Used
Fixture clamping on CNC fixtures
The 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa clamps aluminium or small steel workpieces in milling jigs, and the 90 mm stroke clears part loading in a compact envelope.
Packaging line pusher bars
With about 15 kg of usable thrust and 30-500 mm/s speed, it kicks cartons or trays sideways on a conveyor without taking up the length of a full profile cylinder.
Lab and test station actuation
A vertical lift of about 7 kg with margin suits raising small test heads or probe fixtures, and the short body fits inside benchtop guarding.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP25X90 with the ACE25X90
At 25 mm bore this model sits mid-range: the 20 mm bore pushes 157.1 N at 0.5 MPa while the 32 mm bore reaches 402.1 N, so step up if your jig needs more than about 147 N of usable force. The 90 mm stroke is well inside the 150 mm standard limit for this bore. Rod end is female M6x1.0, ports are M5x0.8, and mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis. This code has no magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches cannot be fitted; order the -S variant if position sensing is needed. For new builds, specify the ACE25X90 instead, since ACP is discontinued.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE25X90
- ✓ 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 ACP25X90 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N; at 0.7 MPa, 343.6 N push and 288.6 N pull; theoretical maximum is 50.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For reliable duty, plan on roughly 60% of the 0.5 MPa push, about 147 N, which vertically lifts about 7 kg with a 2:1 margin. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 30-500 mm/s speed.
Order the ACE25X90, the current ISO 21287 successor in the same bore, stroke and force class; confirm the mounting dimensions before swapping since the ACP follows the older DIN-standard layout. This exact code has no magnet fitted, so no CMSE or DMSE switch can be mounted; the optional -S code adds the magnet that enables those switches. Also note the cylinder does not hold position if air is lost - use a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load.
