This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACED80X125SB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACED80X125SB 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 ACPD80X125SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD80X125SB is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 125mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED80X125SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD80X125SB
Double acting with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD80X125SB pushes with the same 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa (3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa) in each direction because both strokes work on the rod-side area of the 80 mm bore. The male-threaded 20 mm rod at each end resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, while the fixed TPU bumper at each cover decelerates the piston. Speed range is 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 of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so an 80 mm bore fits into presses and gantries that cannot swallow a full-length body. Plan on about 1414 N of real work at 0.5 MPa (a 0.6 margin), which lifts roughly 120 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is ACED80X125, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED80X125SB (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 (Ø80mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2356 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3299 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 481 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 ACPD80X125SB Is Used
Benchtop crimping press
The 2356.2 N through-rod force in both directions suits a compact bench press that crimps terminals or rivets, with the rear rod carrying a tooling counterbalance or sensor flag.
Bottling line pusher
Equal 2356.2 N push and pull at 0.5 MPa lets one cylinder both divert cartons on a bottling conveyor and retract them without a return spring or reversed porting.
Indexing table with position feedback
Because the S magnet is fitted, CMSE or DMSE switches report end positions on a rotary indexing fixture where the symmetric double-rod mount keeps the table square.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD80X125SB with the ACED80X125SB
At 2356.2 N per side, this 80 mm bore sits between the 63 mm (1458.1 N) and 100 mm (3681.6 N) double-rod classes, so step down when the load is under 1400 N and up when it exceeds 2400 N. The 125 mm stroke is well inside the 300 mm standard limit for bore 80. The S code means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE switches mount directly; FA/FB flange or LB foot brackets bolt to the standard face. A plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. Order ACED80X125 as the current replacement.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED80X125SB
- ✓ 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 ACPD80X125SB FAQ
Being a double-rod cylinder, force is identical in both directions: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, equal to about 297.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The ISO 21287-class short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a 1/4" PT port, fixed TPU bumpers and FA/FB or LB mounting. The ACPD family is discontinued; ACED80X125 is the current drop-in, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before ordering.
