This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE63X30S, 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 ACP63X30S
The AirTAC ACP Compact Cylinder ACP63X30S is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 30mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE63X30S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP63X30S
The ACP63X30S is a double acting DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 63 mm bore and a short 30 mm stroke, built on a hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome piston rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 1558.6 N and pulls with 1458.1 N, rising to 2182.1 N push at 0.7 MPa and a theoretical maximum of 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight clamping fixtures and gantry stations where a full-length cylinder will not fit. This S-coded version carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted directly for end-of-stroke sensing.
A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends to soften the last millimetres of travel; it is not adjustable and it never locks or holds a load, so use a rod lock or pilot check valve if the position must survive a loss of air. Practical sizing: at 0.5 MPa the push force equals about 159 kg of thrust, and planning on roughly 60% of the rating leaves about 95 kg of reliable working force for a real clamp or press job. Note that this model is discontinued; the current-production direct is the ACE63X30, which matches the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE63X30S (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 ACE63X30S 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 ACP63X30S Is Used
Pneumatic press station
With 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa over a 30 mm stroke, this bore sizes well for a short-stroke bench press that stakes or swages small aluminium brackets in an electronics assembly cell.
Clamping fixture on a CNC fixture plate
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, letting the 63 mm bore clamp machined housings inside a crowded machining-centre fixture where clearance is limited.
Position-verified gate on a packaging line
Because this S model carries the magnet, CMSE or DMSE switches confirm full clamp on a carton-forming gate, giving the PLC a verified signal before the sealing bar fires.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP63X30S with the ACE63X30S
For a 30 mm stroke in this force band, the 63 mm bore is the middle choice: a 50 mm bore gives 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa, while an 80 mm bore raises it to 2513.3 N. Pick the 63 mm when you need roughly 1550 N of push without the bulk of the larger bore. The female M10x1.5 rod thread and 1/8" PT ports suit standard fittings, and FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis mounts bolt to the same face family. If you need position feedback, this S version already carries the magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches. Since ACP is discontinued, order the ACE63X30 as the current replacement and verify the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture first.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE63X30S
- ✓ 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 ACP63X30S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 2182.1 N and pull to 2041.3 N; theoretical maximum is 317.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is a double acting compact cylinder, 63 mm bore, 30 mm stroke, 16 mm rod with female M10x1.5 thread, 1/8" PT ports, operating on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered air, running 30-500 mm/s at -20 to +70 C with a fixed TPU bumper at both ends.
Order the ACE63X30: swap the P for an E and you get the current-production ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same bore, stroke and force class, with the same FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounting family and the optional -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches. Because the ACP was DIN-standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before the swap.
