This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACED32X35SB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACED32X35SB 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 ACPD32X35SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X35SB is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 35mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED32X35SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X35SB
A double acting compact cylinder with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD32X35SB pushes and pulls with the same 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa), because each stroke works on the rod-side area. The 12 mm through-rod resists rotation and side load, gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. This unit carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches mount directly on the hard-anodized aluminium body.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it suits tight jigs and guarded gantries. At 0.5 MPa plan on about 207 N of usable work force, which corresponds to lifting roughly 21 kgf, or about 10 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that this model is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is ACED32X35, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. Fixed TPU bumpers sit at both ends, speed spans 30-500 mm/s, and the male rod thread (B code) with PT ports is ready for standard knuckles.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X35SB (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 (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 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 ACPD32X35SB Is Used
Two-sided fixture clamping
The through-rod lets a machining fixture clamp from the front while the rear rod drives a position flag, with 345.6 N available in each direction at 0.5 MPa.
Reciprocating transfer slide
A 35 mm shuttle between two pick points on a small assembly line benefits from identical push and pull force and speeds up to 500 mm/s.
Gated inspection station
With the -S magnet and a DMSE switch, a vision-check gate on a packaging machine reports end positions inside a guard too short for a full-length cylinder.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X35SB with the ACED32X35SB
For a 35 mm stroke job needing equal force in both directions, this 32 mm bore delivers 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa either way. Step down to ACPD25X35 (206.2 N) for lighter clamping, or up to ACPD40X35 (571.8 N) if the part weight grows. The piston will drift if air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the -S magnet on this model accepts CMSE / DMSE switches. Since ACPD is discontinued, order ACED32X35 as the current replacement and verify mounting dimensions.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED32X35SB
- ✓ 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 ACPD32X35SB FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, force is equal both ways: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa on every stroke, with a peak of 70.5 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 bore 32 port is 1/8" PT.
Order ACED32X35, the ISO 21287 successor made by swapping the P for an E. It matches the same 32 mm bore, 35 mm stroke and force class, and accepts the same FA/FB flange and LB foot mounting family, but confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping since the ACP is DIN-standard.
