This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACED100X375S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACED100X375S 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 ACPD100X375S 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 ACED100X375S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD100X375S 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. The 100 mm bore drives a 25 mm hard-chrome S45C rod from both ends of a hard-anodized aluminium body, with a fixed TPU bumper at each cover and a 1/4" PT port. This unit carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped on for end-of-stroke signalling.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it suits long-stroke gantries and sliding guards where a full-length body will not fit. At 0.5 MPa the rod-side thrust of 3681.6 N works out to about 375 kg of lift, so halving for a 2:1 margin lets you raise roughly 187 kg vertically. Note that the 375 mm stroke exceeds the 300 mm standard maximum for this bore, so it is made to order. The ACPD family is discontinued; the current drop-in is ACED100X375, and you should confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED100X375S (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).
The 3681.6 N rod-side thrust in both directions lets one 100 mm bore push cartons off a line on the forward stroke and retract the pusher plate with the same force, no return spring or larger bore needed.
With about 187 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin, the double rod can lower and raise a sheet-metal transfer arm between a decoiler and a press bed, the rear rod carrying a flag for DMSE switches.
A 375 mm made-to-order stroke inside the short body moves a machine guard or gantry door where an ISO 15552 profile cylinder would be too long to mount along the frame.
Size the job first: if 3681.6 N per direction at 0.5 MPa is more than you need, an ACPD80X375S gives 2356.2 N both ways on a 20 mm rod; if you need more, there is no larger bore in this family, so step up to a different series. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load. The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. This model already includes the -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches. Since ACPD is discontinued, order ACED100X375 as the current-production replacement and verify the ISO 21287 mounting footprint first.
Replacement checklist
Push and pull are identical because a rod exits both covers and both strokes use the rod-side area: 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.
No, the ACPD family is discontinued. The current-production drop-in is ACED100X375, the ISO 21287 successor in the same bore, stroke and force class. Because the ACP is DIN-standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions and your FA/FB flange or LB foot pattern before swapping. This unit's -S magnet carries over as an option on the ACE for CMSE / DMSE switches.
