This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE63X45SB, 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 ACP63X45SB is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 45mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE63X45SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACP63X45SB is a double acting DIN-standard compact cylinder from AirTAC with a 63 mm bore and 45 mm stroke. 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, with a theoretical peak of 317.9 kgf. Its hard-anodized aluminium body runs an S45C hard-chrome 16 mm rod, and the short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and gantries. This unit carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be fitted, and the B code gives a male rod thread.
Air is the only fluid, filtered to 40 um, at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with 30-500 mm/s speed and a fixed TPU bumper at each end. Note that this model is discontinued: the current-production direct is the ACE63X45, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE63X45SB (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 | 1559 N | 1458 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | 2041 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The ACE63X45SB 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). |
|---|---|
| 63 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×45 | 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).
With about 935 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, the 63 mm bore clamps steel housings in machining fixtures where the 45 mm stroke keeps the envelope short.
The 1558.6 N push force at 0.5 MPa ejects cartons or trays off a conveyor at 30-500 mm/s, and the optional -S magnet allows CMSE switch feedback on each stroke.
At 0.7 MPa the bore yields 2182.1 N, enough for light staking or swaging heads in small assembly cells where a full-length profile cylinder would not fit.
Size against neighbours: a 50 mm bore delivers 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 80 mm bore reaches 2513.3 N, so the 63 mm at 1558.6 N sits squarely in the mid-heavy class. If the valve centres or air drops, the rod drifts - add a rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounts bolt to the standard face, and the male rod thread suits I/Y knuckles. Order the ACE63X45 as the current replacement.
Replacement checklist
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 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed spans 30-500 mm/s.
Order the ACE63X45, the current-production ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you get the same 63 mm bore, 45 mm stroke and force class with a matching short body and mounting family. Because the ACP was DIN-standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before the swap.
