This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACED100X375 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACED100X375 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 ACPD100X375 is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 375mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED100X375 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
This is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder in the discontinued AirTAC ACPD series: a 100 mm bore with a 25 mm rod exiting BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on every stroke - 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 5154.2 N at 0.7 MPa, either direction. The 375 mm stroke is longer than the 300 mm standard limit for this bore, so it is a made-to-order build. Note that this model is discontinued; the current-production successor is the ACED100X375, which keeps the same bore, stroke and force class.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is how a 375 mm through-rod cylinder still fits deep gantries and long-stroke guarding frames. The through-rod itself resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the back-end rod can carry a sensor flag. A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, the hard-anodized aluminium body carries 1/4" ports, and the rod ends are female M16x1.5. Because both strokes use the rod-side area, the 3681.6 N rating translates to about 375 kg of force - halve that for a 2:1 margin and it lifts roughly 187 kg vertically. This unit has no magnet; order the -S code if you later need CMSE / DMSE switch positions.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED100X375 (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. |
| ×375 | 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).
A 375 mm through-rod pushes full pallet layers off a stacking table in a warehouse line, then retracts with equal 3681.6 N force to reset the pusher plate from the same rod side.
A beverage plant uses the back-end rod to drive a sensor flag while the front rod swings a diverter gate across a conveyor, both strokes matched at 5154.2 N at 0.7 MPa.
The 100 mm bore tops a bale-forming chute in a textile mill, applying about 2209 N of practical working force at 0.5 MPa to pre-compress fiber before tying.
At 3681.6 N per direction this is the top of the ACPD range - step down to the 80 mm bore (2356.2 N) for lighter presses or up from the 63 mm bore (1458.1 N) when a job needs real muscle. The 375 mm stroke is above the 300 mm standard ceiling for bore 100, so plan for a made-to-order lead time. A plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. FA/FB flange and LB foot mounts suit long-stroke frames, and remember the -S code if position switches are wanted. For new projects, specify the ACED100X375 instead and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
Replacement checklist
Because a 25 mm rod exits both covers, force is equal both ways: 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 5154.2 N at 0.7 MPa on every stroke, with a maximum of 750.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, -20 to +70 C.
Order the ACED100X375, the current ISO 21287 replacement (swap the P for an E). It matches the same 100 mm bore, 375 mm stroke and force class, but confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping since the ACPD was built to a DIN-standard footprint. FA/FB flange and LB foot brackets, plus the optional -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches, are handled in the ACE ordering code.
