This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACED100X80B — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACED100X80B 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 ACPD100X80B
The AirTAC Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X80B is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 80mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED100X80B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X80B
This is a double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, so the 100 mm bore delivers the same 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa (5154.2 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke because both sides work on the rod-side area. The 25 mm through-rod resists rotation and side load, gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
The short ISO 21287-class body cuts roughly 50% of the mounting length compared with an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it suits dense gantries and press fixtures. Plan on about 2209 N of usable push 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 ACED100X80, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED100X80B (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 ACPD100X80B Is Used
Symmetric press fixture
The equal 3681.6 N output in both directions lets one cylinder press a bearing in on the forward stroke and eject the finished hub on the return, with the male M16x1.5 rod thread taking a standard knuckle.
Counterbalanced lift column
A rod on each end of the 25 mm through-rod balances a packaging-machine crosshead, and the through-rod's resistance to rotation keeps the head square at 30-500 mm/s.
Two-sided conveyor gate
The rear rod drives a diverter flag while the front rod pushes cartons, so one 100 mm bore does two jobs on a bottling line without a second cylinder.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X80B with the ACED100X80B
At 3681.6 N per direction this is the top of the ACPD range; if your load needs under 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa, the 80 mm bore costs less in air, while the 63 mm bore (1458.1 N) covers lighter clamping. Stroke 80 mm sits well inside the 300 mm standard limit for this bore. The B code gives a male M16x1.5 rod thread and the port is 1/4" PT. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. This unit is discontinued; order the ACED100X80 as the current equivalent and verify the ISO 21287 mounting footprint.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED100X80B
- ✓ 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 ACPD100X80B FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, output is equal both ways: 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 5154.2 N at 0.7 MPa on every stroke (rod-side area). At a full 1.0 MPa the bore reaches about 750.8 kgf. 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.
No - the ACPD family is discontinued. The current-production drop-in is the ACED100X80 (the same P-to-E swap), which matches this bore, stroke and force class in the ISO 21287 short-body format. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP was built to a DIN standard, and specify the -S code on the replacement if you need CMSE / DMSE switch positions.
