This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACED100X35SB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACED100X35SB 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 ACPD100X35SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X35SB 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 ACED100X35SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X35SB
Double acting with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD100X35SB pushes and pulls with identical output 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 100 mm bore drives a 25 mm rod through a 35 mm stroke at 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted for position feedback.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters on wide gantries and press fixtures where every millimetre counts. As a planning figure, treat roughly 2209 N (about 225 kg) as the usable force at 0.5 MPa, or halve the lift equivalent and expect it to raise about 112 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that this ACPD is discontinued; the current-production drop-in is the ACED100X35, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED100X35SB (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 ACPD100X35SB Is Used
Reciprocating press fixture
A 35 mm stroke and 3681.6 N of equal force in both directions suits a short-stake or swaging head on an aluminium extrusion line, where the through-rod lets the die mount on either side.
Vertical lift-and-lower station
With about 112 kg of vertical lift capability at a 2:1 margin, the double rod resists rotation while raising pallet collars or fixtures; pair it with a pilot check valve because the piston drifts when air is lost.
Gantry with end-position feedback
The -S magnet fitted on this unit accepts CMSE or DMSE switches at both ends, ideal for a packaging gantry where the PLC must confirm clamp and release before the conveyor index.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X35SB with the ACED100X35SB
At this bore size the ACPD100X35SB delivers 3681.6 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. If your load needs under 881.2 N, the 50 mm bore is the smaller step; if you need more than 3681.6 N, no larger ACPD bore exists, so check the ACED range or a bigger frame. Remember the piston drifts when air is lost - for a held vertical load add a rod lock or pilot check valve. The B code gives a male rod thread on a 25 mm rod, PT ports are 1/4", and FA/FB flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the ISO 21287 face. Order the ACED100X35 as the current replacement for this discontinued model.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED100X35SB
- ✓ 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 ACPD100X35SB FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, output is equal in both directions on the rod-side area: 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), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 1/4" PT ports serve the 100 mm bore with a 25 mm rod over a 35 mm stroke.
The ACPD family is discontinued. The current-production drop-in is the ACED100X35 - swap the P for an E - which matches the same bore, stroke and force class in the ISO 21287 short-body format. Before swapping, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture, since the ACP was built to a DIN-standard footprint. FA/FB flange and LB foot brackets, plus the optional -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches, carry over in the ACE range.
