This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACED80X65B — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACED80X65B 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 ACPD80X65B
The AirTAC Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD80X65B is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 65mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED80X65B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD80X65B
This is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder in the discontinued AirTAC ACPD series. The 80 mm bore delivers 2356.2 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, because a 20 mm rod exits both covers and every stroke works on the rod-side area. The B code gives a male rod thread, the port is 1/4" PT, and a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end. As a through-rod design it resists rotation and side load and offers a symmetric mount, with the rear rod free to carry a sensor flag.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is an ISO 21287 short build that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight presses and gantries. At 0.5 MPa, plan on roughly 1414 N (about 144 kgf) of usable push, which lifts about 72 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note the model is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is the ACED80X65, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s over 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED80X65B (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 ACPD80X65B Is Used
Bench-top press station
The 2356.2 N two-way force at 0.5 MPa suits a small forming or marking press where the 65 mm stroke closes the tool and the return stroke retracts it with equal force.
Reciprocating conveyor pusher
A rod on each cover lets one rod drive the pusher plate while the rear rod carries a flag for a position sensor bracket, keeping the carriage symmetric under side load.
Gantry pick-and-place riser
The short ISO 21287 body fits inside a low gantry crossbeam, and the 72 kg vertical-lift equivalent (with a 2:1 margin) covers most aluminium fixture plates and parts.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD80X65B with the ACED80X65B
Size both ways: the 63 mm bore gives 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa, while the 100 mm bore reaches 3681.6 N, so pick the 80 mm when your clamp or press needs the 2356.2 N class. The 65 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalogue item, not made to order. This unit has no magnet (no -S code), so no CMSE or DMSE switch can be fitted; order an -S variant if position sensing matters. Like any plain double-rod cylinder it will drift when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. For new projects, specify the ACED80X65 instead.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED80X65B
- ✓ 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 ACPD80X65B FAQ
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is identical on both strokes: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, using the rod-side area in each chamber. At 1.0 MPa the maximum is 480.5 kgf. 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 hard-anodized aluminium body follows the ISO 21287 compact format, roughly 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with FA/FB flange or LB foot mounting. A fixed TPU bumper at each cover simply decelerates the piston at the ends; it is not adjustable and does not hold a load. The ACPD series is discontinued, and the current drop-in is the ACED80X65 - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before converting.
