This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACED100X200SB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACED100X200SB in place of this model. 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 Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X200SB is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 200mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED100X200SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD100X200SB pushes and pulls with identical force because each stroke works on the rod-side area: 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 5154.2 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction. The 25 mm through-rod resists rotation and side load, gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag, while fixed TPU bumpers decelerate both ends. This model is discontinued; the current-production drop-in is ACED100X200, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
The short ISO 21287 body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters on a 200 mm stroke in a tight press frame or gantry. For vertical work, halve the 0.5 MPa rating for a 2:1 margin and this bore lifts about 112 kg vertically, so match it against the real weight of your die or fixture. The S code means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches mount directly on the hard-anodized aluminium body.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED100X200SB (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 | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5154 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 751 kgf |
Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used).
| ACPD | DIN compact cylinder (double-rod, discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 100 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×200 | 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 (adjustable stroke).
The 3681.6 N rod-side force in both directions ejects heavy stampings from a die, and the 200 mm stroke clears the part in a compact press frame.
With a 2:1 margin this bore lifts about 112 kg vertically; the through-rod keeps the platform level and the rear rod carries a position flag.
Equal 5154.2 N clamping at 0.7 MPa from either side centers a casting, while the fitted magnet and CMSE switches confirm clamp state to the PLC.
At 3681.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore suits heavy clamping and lifting where equal force both ways matters. If your load needs less, the 80 mm bore delivers 2356.2 N; if you need more, the ACPD tops out at this bore, so step up to a larger frame or confirm the ACED range. Note that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - for a held load add a rod lock or pilot check. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the ISO 21287 face, the male rod thread (B code) suits I/Y knuckles, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches. Order ACED100X200 as the current replacement and verify its mounting dimensions.
Replacement checklist
Yes - the double-rod design means both strokes use the rod-side area, so force is equal either way: 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa, 5154.2 N at 0.7 MPa, and up to 750.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end.
Order ACED100X200, the ISO 21287 successor made by swapping the P for an E. It matches the same 100 mm bore, 200 mm stroke and force class, but because the ACP is DIN-standard you should confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. The -S magnet on this unit is an option code, not standard on every ACE, so add S to the new order if you run CMSE / DMSE switches.
