This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACED80X175S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACED80X175S 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 ACPD80X175S
The AirTAC Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD80X175S is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 175mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED80X175S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD80X175S
A double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the DIN-standard ACP format, the ACPD80X175S pushes a 20 mm rod out of both covers, so the 80 mm bore delivers the same 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa (3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke. The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it fits tight gantries and guarding where a full-length body cannot. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped on for end-of-stroke signalling.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag for a second switching point. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, the hard-anodized aluminium body runs with an S45C hard-chrome rod, speed spans 30-500 mm/s, and 1/4" ports take air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). For planning, the 2356.2 N rating means roughly 1410 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, enough to lift about 120 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note the family is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is the ACED80X175, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before you swap.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED80X175S (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 ACPD80X175S Is Used
Symmetric press fixture
The equal 2356.2 N output in both directions lets one 80 mm cylinder press a bearing home on the forward stroke and eject the finished bushing on the return, with the 175 mm stroke clearing a deep die pocket.
Reciprocating conveyor gate
A rod on each cover lets the through-rod drive a sliding gate from either side and shrug off the side load of a misaligned pallet, with the rear rod carrying a flag for a second DMSE switch position.
Vertical lift-and-lower station
With about 1410 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa, the cylinder raises roughly 120 kg fixture plates with a 2:1 margin; pair it with a pilot check valve because the piston will drift if air pressure drops.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD80X175S with the ACED80X175S
At 80 mm bore this is the second-strongest ACPD size: 2356.2 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. Step down to the 63 mm bore for 1458.1 N, or up to the 100 mm bore for 3681.6 N if the press or clamp needs more. The 175 mm stroke sits inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalogue length, not a made-to-order one. Keep in mind that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check if the load must stay put. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the ISO 21287 face, the -S magnet on this unit accepts CMSE / DMSE switches, and the ACED80X175 is the current replacement to quote.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED80X175S
- ✓ 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 ACPD80X175S FAQ
Because a rod exits both covers, output is equal in both directions: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa on every stroke, peaking at 480.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. As a planning rule, about 1410 N is usable at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 120 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 1/4" ports take air filtered to 40 um.
Order the ACED80X175, the current-production ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you get the same 80 mm bore, 175 mm stroke and force class in a matching short body. Before swapping, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture, since the ACP was built to a DIN-standard footprint. FA/FB flange and LB foot brackets, plus the -S magnet option for CMSE / DMSE switches, carry over on the ACE family.
