This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE25X90S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE25X90S 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 ACP25X90S 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 ACE25X90S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACP25X90S is a double acting DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 25 mm bore and 90 mm stroke, fitted with the optional -S magnet so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted directly on the hard-anodized aluminium body. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.4 N and pulls 206.2 N, rising to 343.6 N push at 0.7 MPa. 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 jigs and guarded stations.
Practical sizing: keep real work near 147 N (about 0.6 of the push rating), and expect roughly 12 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin - enough for small aluminium brackets or plastic trays. The rod ends in a female M6x1.0 thread, the air port is M5x0.8, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end simply decelerates the piston. Note that this model is discontinued; the current-production drop-in is ACE25X90, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE25X90S (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 ACE25X90S 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. |
| ×90 | 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).
Clamps machined aluminium housings on a CNC secondary-op jig; 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa holds the part against a hard stop while drilling.
With the -S magnet and a DMSE switch, a packaging machine confirms the 90 mm eject stroke before the next carton is released.
Swings a light product gate on a food-grade conveyor line; the compact body fits inside the guard where a full-length cylinder will not.
For a 90 mm stroke at this force level, bore 25 delivers 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa. Step down to bore 20 (157.1 N) for lighter clamping, or up to bore 32 (402.1 N) when the load grows. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounts bolt to the same face, and the -S magnet on this unit works with CMSE / DMSE switches. Order ACE25X90 as the current replacement.
Replacement checklist
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. It is double acting with a 25 mm bore, 90 mm stroke, 10 mm rod, M5x0.8 port, female M6x1.0 rod thread, operating pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends.
Order ACE25X90, the ISO 21287 successor made by swapping the P for an E. It matches the same bore, stroke and force class and keeps the short-body format, but because the ACP was DIN-standard you should confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. The ACE also accepts the optional -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches.
