This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACED100X35S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACED100X35S 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 ACPD100X35S
The AirTAC Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X35S is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 35mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED100X35S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X35S
A double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the DIN-standard ACP layout, the ACPD100X35S pushes a 100 mm bore through a 35 mm stroke with a rod leaving both covers. Because each side sees the rod-side area, output is identical in both directions: 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 5154.2 N at 0.7 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium body keeps the mounting length roughly half that of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into presses, clamping fixtures and gantries where a full-length body will not fit.
The 25 mm hard-chrome S45C through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. Fixed TPU bumpers sit at both ends, speed spans 30-500 mm/s, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches for end-of-stroke detection. In practice, plan on about 2209 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 187 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note this model is discontinued; the current-production drop-in is the ISO 21287 ACED100X35, so confirm mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED100X35S (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 ACPD100X35S Is Used
Baler ram guide
The through-rod on both covers keeps the platen aligned on the return stroke in a small scrap or textile baler, with 5154.2 N available each way at 0.7 MPa.
Twin-sided stamping fixture
A 35 mm stroke and equal 3681.6 N output in both directions suit a marking or coining station that must strike from either side of a rotating part.
Gantry Z-axis with switching
The fitted -S magnet lets CMSE / DMSE switches confirm top and bottom of stroke on a pick-and-place gantry, while the rear rod carries a position flag.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X35S with the ACED100X35S
At 35 mm stroke this sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for the 100 mm bore, so it is a standard catalog item. If 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa is more than the job needs, the 63 mm bore delivers 1458.1 N; if you need more, the 100 mm bore is the largest in the family. Choose LB foot or FA/FB flange mounting to suit the fixture, and keep the -S magnet if CMSE / DMSE switching is required. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. For new designs, order the ACED100X35 instead, as this ACPD model is discontinued.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED100X35S
- ✓ 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 ACPD100X35S FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal in both directions: 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 5154.2 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 750.8 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, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is an ISO 21287-class compact build that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end and a female M16x1.5 rod thread. This ACPD model is discontinued; the ACED100X35 is the current drop-in successor in the same bore, stroke and force class, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before ordering.
