This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE32X90S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE32X90S 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 ACP32X90S
The AirTAC Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X90S is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 90mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE32X90S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X90S
The ACP32X90S is a DIN-standard compact cylinder that runs double acting, with air driving the rod out and pulling it back. This 32 mm bore, 90 mm stroke version carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped on for end-of-stroke signalling. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 563 N and 483.8 N, with a theoretical ceiling of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Its hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod 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. In practice, plan on roughly 241 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa - about 24 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin - when matching it to a real part weight. Note that this model is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is ACE32X90, same bore, stroke and force class, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE32X90S (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 ACE32X90S 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 ACP32X90S Is Used
Fixture clamping on CNC pallets
With 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore clamps aluminium brackets and small castings in machining fixtures, and the 90 mm stroke clears part loading room.
Carton push-off on packaging lines
The short body fits beside narrow conveyor frames, kicking 500 g snack cartons off the belt at up to 500 mm/s, with CMSE switches confirming each kick via the -S magnet.
Sample tray indexing in lab automation
Compact enough for enclosed analyser cabinets, the 90 mm stroke advances microplate trays one position per cycle, and the female M8x1.25 rod thread takes standard knuckles.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X90S with the ACE32X90S
Size both ways before you commit: the 25 mm bore delivers 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 40 mm bore reaches 628.3 N, so the 32 mm at 402.1 N sits squarely in the middle for medium clamping and transfer work. If the load must stay put when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check valve - the fixed TPU bumpers only soften the ends and never hold position. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounts bolt to the standard face, and the -S magnet on this unit pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches. Since ACP is discontinued, order ACE32X90 as the current equivalent and verify the ISO 21287 hole pattern.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE32X90S
- ✓ 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 ACP32X90S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa, 563 N push and 483.8 N pull; theoretical maximum is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is a double-acting 32 mm bore with a 90 mm stroke, 12 mm rod, 1/8" PT port, female M8x1.25 rod thread, operating range 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends.
Order ACE32X90, the current ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you get the same 32 mm bore, 90 mm 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 FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis options, and the -S magnet code for CMSE / DMSE switch signalling.
