This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE80X160, 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 ACP80X160 is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 160mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE80X160 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACP80X160 is a double acting compact cylinder with a 160 mm stroke on an 80 mm bore, pushing 2513.3 N and pulling 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa (3518.6 N / 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa). Its hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod run on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) of filtered air at 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. Note that this model is discontinued; the current-production successor is the ACE80X160.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into press fixtures and gantries where a full-length body will not fit. Rod end is a female M12x1.75 thread with a 1/4" port, and FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis mounts bolt straight to the standard face. Position sensing needs the optional -S magnet code; without it no CMSE or DMSE switch can be fitted.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE80X160 (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 | 2513 N | 2356 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3519 N | 3299 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 513 kgf | |
The ACE80X160 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). |
|---|---|
| 80 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×160 | 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 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa (about 1508 N usable) clinches, stakes or forms aluminium brackets on a short-stroke press bench where a full-length body will not fit.
Clamps machined housings against a fixture on a CNC loading gantry; the 160 mm stroke clears the part and the FA flange bolts to a standard mounting face.
At 80 mm bore this sits near the top of the range: 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa versus 1558.6 N for a 63 mm bore, while the 100 mm bore reaches 3927.0 N if you need more. The 160 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm standard limit for this bore. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. Order the -S code if you want CMSE / DMSE switch capability. Since ACP is discontinued, spec the ACE80X160 as the direct and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
Replacement checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 2513.3 N and pulls 2356.2 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 3518.6 N push and 3298.7 N pull. The theoretical maximum is 512.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is double acting, runs at 30-500 mm/s on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air, and the 160 mm stroke is within the 300 mm standard limit for the 80 mm bore.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis options and a female M12x1.75 rod thread on a 1/4" port. The ACP80X160 itself is discontinued - order the ACE80X160 as the current direct and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before the swap.
