This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE63X50, 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 ACP63X50 is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 50mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE63X50 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACP63X50 is a double acting compact cylinder built to the DIN-standard short-body format, with a 63 mm bore, 50 mm stroke and a 16 mm hard-chrome S45C rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N, rising to 2182.1 N push at 0.7 MPa. Its hard-anodized aluminium body with threaded aluminium covers saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight machine frames where a full-length cylinder cannot. Note this model is discontinued; the current-production successor is ACE63X50.
The fixed TPU bumper at each end only decelerates the piston; it never holds a load when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the position must be kept. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounts bolt to the ISO 21287 face. The optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; without -S there is no magnet.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE63X50 (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 ACE63X50 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. |
| ×50 | 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 ACP63X50 clamps a 90-95 kg die pallet or machining fixture in a compact CNC cell where body length is limited.
The 50 mm stroke and 2182.1 N push at 0.7 MPa suit ejecting bushings or bearings from assembly arbors on a small automated press station.
Mounted with an LB foot bracket, the short body actuates diverter gates and stoppers on packaging conveyor lines, cycling at 30-500 mm/s.
For a 50 mm stroke in the 1500 N class at 0.5 MPa, the 63 mm bore is the right pick; drop to the 50 mm bore (981.7 N push) if the load is lighter, or step up to the 80 mm bore (2513.3 N push) for heavier tooling. The 50 mm stroke is well inside the 250 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalogue item. Choose the female M10x1.5 rod thread as coded, or add B for a male thread. Order the -S variant if CMSE / DMSE position switches are needed. Since ACP is discontinued, specify ACE63X50 as the direct and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before the swap.
Replacement checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558.6 N and pulls 1458.1 N; at 0.7 MPa, 2182.1 N push and 2041.3 N pull. 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, air filtered to 40 um, speed 30-500 mm/s and temperature -20 to +70 C.
The ACP family is out of production; the current direct is ACE63X50, the ISO 21287 successor with the same 63 mm bore, 50 mm stroke and force class. FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis brackets fit the ISO 21287 face, but confirm the mounting dimensions against the ACP (DIN-standard) footprint before swapping. The 1/8" port and M10x1.5 female rod thread carry over, and the -S magnet option enables CMSE / DMSE switches.
