This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE32X275S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE32X275S 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 ACP32X275S
The AirTAC Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X275S is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 275mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE32X275S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X275S
The ACP32X275S is a double acting compact cylinder in the AirTAC ACP DIN-standard series, built on a hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome plated 12 mm rod and a fixed TPU bumper at each end. Its 32 mm bore delivers 402.1 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 563 N push at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical peak of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight gantries and guarding where a full-length body will not fit.
The S in the model code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clamped directly onto the body for end-of-stroke signalling. Because the 275 mm stroke exceeds the 200 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, it is a made-to-order build. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production replacement is ACE32X275, which matches the same bore, stroke and force class. In practice, plan on about 241 N (roughly 24 kg of vertical lift) of usable work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full 402.1 N rating.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE32X275S (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 ACE32X275S 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 ACP32X275S Is Used
Long-reach jig clamping
The 275 mm stroke reaches deep into a welding fixture to swing a clamp arm clear of the part, with 402.1 N of push at 0.5 MPa holding the bracket firmly during the weld cycle.
Packaging line part ejection
Mounted alongside a carton conveyor, the long stroke pushes finished packs off the belt into a chute, while the fitted -S magnet and a DMSE switch confirm each eject stroke completed.
Vertical lift in a test rig
With the rod pointing down, the cylinder lowers a 20 kg gauge fixture onto a workpiece - about half its 41 kg vertical-lift equivalent at 0.5 MPa - keeping a 2:1 margin on the load.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X275S with the ACE32X275S
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 grows. The 275 mm stroke is non-standard for this bore, so expect a made-to-order unit and confirm the lead time. This version carries the -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches and has a female M8x1.25 rod thread with a 1/8" PT port. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must hold position. For new projects, order the ACE32X275 instead, and verify the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping from the DIN-standard ACP footprint.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE32X275S
- ✓ 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 ACP32X275S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 563 N push and 483.8 N pull, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is a double acting 32 mm bore unit with a 275 mm made-to-order stroke, 12 mm rod, 1/8" PT port, M8x1.25 female rod thread, 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) operating range, 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, -20 to +70 C temperature, 30-500 mm/s speed and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends.
Order the ACE32X275, the current-production ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you get the same bore, stroke and force class in a matching short body. Because the ACP was built to the DIN standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before swapping. The ACE family also keeps the FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounting options and the optional magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches.
