This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACED100X350S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACED100X350S 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.
Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X350S
The AirTAC Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X350S is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 350mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED100X350S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X350S
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD100X350S delivers 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa in either direction because both strokes work on the rod-side area. The 100 mm bore is the largest in the family, reaching 5154.2 N at 0.7 MPa, and the through-rod resists rotation and side load while giving a symmetric mount and a rear rod for a sensor flag. The 350 mm stroke is beyond the 300 mm standard limit for this bore, so it is a made-to-order build.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters when a 100 mm bore must fit inside a press frame or gantry with limited depth. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped on for end-of-stroke signals. Note that ACPD is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is ACED100X350, and you should confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, and the piston will drift if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for held loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED100X350S (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 (Ø100mm)
| 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).

Where the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X350S Is Used
Baling press platen drive
The 3681.6 N per-side force at 0.5 MPa drives a platen into scrap or packaging bales, and the second rod keeps the platen square under off-center loads.
Pallet stacker lift column
With about 188 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin, the 350 mm made-to-order stroke raises stacked cartons between conveyor levels in a warehouse line.
Two-sided gate actuator
A rod on each cover lets one cylinder push a sliding guard or gate closed and pull it open with equal 5154.2 N force at 0.7 MPa, halving the parts count.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X350S with the ACED100X350S
At 3681.6 N per side at 0.5 MPa, plan on about 2209 N (roughly 225 kg of push) for real work, which corresponds to lifting about 188 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. If your load is lighter, the 80 mm bore gives 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa; if you need more, no larger ACPD bore exists, so step to a bigger series. FA/FB flange and LB foot mounts bolt to the standard face, and the -S magnet on this unit pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches. Order the ACED100X350 as the current replacement and verify the ISO 21287 footprint first.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED100X350S
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force class
- ✓ Confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S for magnet if you need sensors
Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X350S FAQ
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 5154.2 N at 0.7 MPa, on the rod-side area in each direction. The maximum rating is 750.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 350 mm stroke is a non-standard, made-to-order length since the bore's standard limit is 300 mm.
The ACPD family is no longer in production. The current-production drop-in is ACED100X350, the ISO 21287 successor with the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before swapping, since the ACP was built to a DIN-standard footprint. This unit's -S magnet and CMSE / DMSE switch arrangement carry over to the equivalent ACE -S code.
