This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE32X150 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE32X150 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 ACP32X150

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X150
The ACP32X150 is a double acting compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP series, with a 32 mm bore pushing 402.1 N (pull 345.6 N) at 0.5 MPa and 563 N at 0.7 MPa. Its short ISO 21287-class 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. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and rod speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
This 150 mm stroke sits inside the 200 mm standard range for bore 32, so no made-to-order build is needed. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a fixed TPU bumper at each end, and the S45C hard-chrome rod ends in a female M8x1.25 thread. For sizing, plan on roughly 240 N of real work at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 of the push rating), which is a vertical lift of around 12 kg with a 2:1 margin. Note the ACP family is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is the ACE32X150, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE32X150 (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 (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The ACE32X150 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 ACP32X150 Is Used
Fixture clamping on CNC fixtures
The 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa clamps aluminium or small steel workpieces in machining jigs, and the short body fits inside fixture plates where a full-length cylinder cannot.
Reject pusher on packaging lines
A 150 mm stroke sweeps off-spec cartons or trays from a conveyor lane; the fixed TPU bumper decelerates the rod at each end of the fast 30-500 mm/s cycle.
Small parts press and eject
With about 12 kg of practical vertical lift at 0.5 MPa, this bore ejects bushings or pins from assembly chutes in electronics and appliance sub-assembly stations.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X150 with the ACE32X150
At 32 mm bore you get 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa; step down to a 25 mm bore (245.4 N) for lighter clamping or up to 40 mm (628.3 N) if the load is heavier. The 150 mm stroke is standard for this bore, so ordering is straightforward. Remember a plain ACP does not hold position when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mountings bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches (this code has no magnet). Order the ACE32X150 as the current replacement.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE32X150
- ✓ 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 ACP32X150 FAQ
Push is 402.1 N and pull 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 563 N and pull to 483.8 N, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is a double acting 32 mm bore, 150 mm stroke unit with a 12 mm rod, 1/8" PT port, female M8x1.25 rod thread, 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) operating range, -20 to +70 C temperature and 30-500 mm/s speed.
Order the ACE32X150, the ISO 21287 successor made by swapping the P for an E. It matches the same bore, stroke and force class with a matching short body and mounting family. Because the ACP was DIN-standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before the swap. If you need position sensing, order the ACE with the -S magnet code so CMSE / DMSE switches can be fitted.
