This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACE80X160B, 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 ACP80X160B
The AirTAC ACP Compact Cylinder ACP80X160B 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 ACE80X160B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP80X160B
The ACP80X160B is a double acting compact cylinder in the DIN-standard ACP series, with an 80 mm bore driving a 20 mm hard-chrome S45C rod through a 160 mm stroke. Air powers both the extend and return strokes, fixed TPU bumpers sit at each end, and the hard-anodized aluminium body keeps the mounting length roughly 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder - useful in presses, gantries and guarding where a full-length body will not fit. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 2513.3 N and pulls 2356.2 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 3518.6 N and 3298.7 N, with a theoretical ceiling of 512.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This unit is discontinued; the current-production direct is the ISO 21287 ACE80X160, which matches the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. The B code gives a male rod thread on a PT port supply. Plan on roughly 1508 N (about 154 kg of thrust) of real work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating, and note the rod will drift if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s, -20 to +70 C.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE80X160B (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 (Ø80mm)
| 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 ACE80X160B 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 ACP80X160B Is Used
Pneumatic press fixture
The 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa stakes, rivets or clinches aluminium brackets in a compact press head where the short ISO 21287 body fits inside the tooling envelope.
Pallet gate actuator
Swings a heavy safety gate on a warehouse conveyor line; the 160 mm stroke clears the aisle and the 20 mm rod handles the side loads of frequent cycling at 30-500 mm/s.
Machine guard clamp-down
Pulls a sheet-metal guard closed on a CNC cell with 2356.2 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, using the FB flange to bolt flush against the frame.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP80X160B with the ACE80X160B
At this bore size the step down is the 63 mm ACP (1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa) and the step up is the 100 mm ACP (3927.0 N) - pick the 80 mm when your load sits between those bands. The 160 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm standard maximum for bore 80, so no made-to-order stroke is needed. FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the male thread. If you need position sensing, order the -S variant to enable CMSE / DMSE switches - this B-coded model carries no magnet. Order ACE80X160 for current production.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE80X160B
- ✓ 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 ACP80X160B FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it delivers 2513.3 N push and 2356.2 N pull; at 0.7 MPa, 3518.6 N push and 3298.7 N pull; theoretical maximum is 512.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The cylinder is double acting, runs 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um, and accepts 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof limit.
Order the ACE80X160, the ISO 21287 successor made by swapping the P for an E. It matches the same 80 mm bore, 160 mm stroke and force class, and its mounting family (FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis) carries over. Because the ACP was built to a DIN standard, verify the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before the swap. Also note this B-coded unit has no magnet; if you need CMSE or DMSE switch positions, specify the -S option on the ACE.
