This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE63X120SB, 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.
Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP63X120SB
The AirTAC ACP Compact Cylinder ACP63X120SB is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 120mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE63X120SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP63X120SB
The ACP63X120SB is a double acting DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 63 mm bore and 120 mm stroke, delivering 1558.6 N push and 1458.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 2182.1 N at 0.7 MPa. Its short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight machine frames where a full-length body cannot. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries an S45C hard-chrome rod, and the S in the code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted directly on the tube.
This model is discontinued and is no longer in production; the current direct successor is ACE63X120, which matches the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP was built to a DIN standard. A fixed TPU bumper at each end decelerates the piston, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE63X120SB (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 (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1458 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | 2041 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The ACE63X120SB 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 ACP63X120SB Is Used
Press-fit fixture on an assembly line
The 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa presses bearings or bushings into aluminium housings, and the short body fits inside the guarded press frame.
Position-checked gate on a bottling conveyor
The fitted -S magnet lets CMSE or DMSE switches confirm gate open and closed positions directly on the 63 mm tube.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP63X120SB with the ACE63X120SB
At 63 mm bore this sits between the 50 mm bore (981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa) and the 80 mm bore (2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa); step down if your load is under about 900 N, step up if you need more than 1558.6 N. The 120 mm stroke is within the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so no made-to-order length is needed. The B code gives a male rod thread (M10x1.5 female is the alternative) and the fitted -S magnet supports CMSE / DMSE switches. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. Order ACE63X120 as the current-production replacement.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE63X120SB
- ✓ 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 ACP63X120SB FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 2182.1 N and pulls 2041.3 N. The theoretical maximum is 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The current-production replacement is ACE63X120, the ISO 21287 successor in the same bore, stroke and force class. The -S magnet on this unit is the optional code, not standard on every cylinder, so order the S suffix again if you need CMSE / DMSE switch sensing. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP followed a DIN standard.
