This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE50X80SBH, the same code under the new prefix. 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 ACP Compact Cylinder ACP50X80SBH is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 80mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE50X80SBH (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACP50X80SBH is a double acting DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 50 mm bore and 80 mm stroke, pushing 981.7 N and pulling 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa (rising to 1374.4 N at 0.7 MPa). Its hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod are built around the short ISO 21287-style body, which saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder - ideal where a jig, guard or gantry leaves no room for a full-length body. The SBH code adds the optional -S magnet and a male rod thread, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted directly on the tube.
Both ends carry a fixed TPU bumper for end-of-stroke deceleration. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production replacement is ACE50X80, which matches the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP follows the DIN standard.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE50X80SBH (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 | 982 N | 881 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | 1234 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
The ACE50X80SBH 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). |
|---|---|
| 50 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×80 | 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 (double rod, adjustable stroke).
The 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa clamps aluminium housings in machining fixtures, and the short body fits between vise stations where a full-length cylinder cannot.
An 80 mm stroke presses flaps or inserts on a packaging line at 30-500 mm/s, with the -S magnet feeding CMSE switches for end-of-stroke confirmation to the PLC.
With about 50 kg of vertical lift equivalent at 0.5 MPa, the bore handles EV battery module lift-and-press checks; add a pilot check valve to hold the load if air drops.
If 981.7 N of push at 0.5 MPa is more than your fixture needs, step down to the ACP32 (402.1 N) or ACP40 (628.3 N); if you need more, the ACP63 delivers 1558.6 N in the same 1/8" port class. The 80 mm stroke sits well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 50, so no made-to-order build is required. This version ships with the -S magnet fitted and a male rod thread; choose the plain code for a female thread or no magnet. Remember a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must hold position. Order ACE50X80 as the current direct replacement.
Replacement checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 981.7 N and pulls 881.2 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 1374.4 N and pulls 1233.7 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 200.2 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed spans 30-500 mm/s.
No - the ACP family is discontinued. The current-production direct is ACE50X80 (swap the P for an E), which matches the same 50 mm bore, 80 mm stroke and force class on the ISO 21287 short body. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, because the ACP was built to the DIN standard; FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis brackets bolt to the ACE face.
