This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACEJ12X110-10S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACEJ12X110-10S 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 ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ12X110-10S
The AirTAC Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ12X110-10S is a double acting, adjustable stroke DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø12mm bore and 110mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACEJ12X110-10S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ12X110-10S
Double acting and adjustable in stroke, the ACPJ12X110-10S is a discontinued DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 12 mm bore and a 110 mm made-to-order stroke. An external stop screw trims the extend stroke by up to 10 mm, giving a usable range of 100-110 mm, and a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 56.5 N and pulls 42.4 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 79.2 N. Plan on roughly 34 N (about 3 kg of vertical lift) as the practical working force, keeping a margin below the rating.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with S45C hard-chrome rod saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures and guarding. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted directly. This model is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is the ISO 21287 ACEJ12X110 in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP is DIN-standard.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACEJ12X110-10S (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 (Ø12mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 57 N | 42 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 79 N | 59 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 12 kgf | |
The ACEJ12X110-10S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Where the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ12X110-10S Is Used
Position-verified ejection on small assembly stations
The fitted -S magnet lets a CMSE or DMSE switch confirm the trimmed 100-110 mm extend stroke before the next pick-and-place cycle starts.
Light clamping of small electronics housings
About 34 N of practical working force at 0.5 MPa is enough to hold connector blocks or PCB trays in a drill or test fixture without marking them.
Stroke-matched feed in compact lab automation
The 10 mm adjustment window lets technicians dial the extend stroke between 100 and 110 mm on site, and the short body fits where a full-length profile cylinder cannot.
Replacing the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ12X110-10S with the ACEJ12X110-10S
At 12 mm bore this is the smallest force class in the family: 56.5 N push at 0.5 MPa versus 100.5 N for a 16 mm bore and 157.1 N for a 20 mm bore, so step up a size if your part weight or friction load approaches 3 kg equivalent. The 110 mm stroke exceeds the 50 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 12, so it is built to order. The female M3x0.5 rod thread suits I/Y knuckles, and FA flange or LB foot mounts bolt to the face. Because the stop screw only limits the extend stroke and is not a mid-stroke lock, the rod will drift if air is lost - do not use it to hold a load. For new designs, specify the ACEJ12X110 instead.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACEJ12X110-10S
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force class
- ✓ Confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S for magnet if you need sensors
Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ12X110-10S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 56.5 N and pulls 42.4 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 79.2 N and pulls 59.4 N; the theoretical maximum is 11.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -10 code gives a 10 mm adjustment window, so the 110 mm extend stroke can be trimmed to anywhere between 100 and 110 mm with the external stop screw. The 110 mm stroke is non-standard for this 12 mm bore (max standard 50 mm), so it is made to order. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and speed is 30-500 mm/s.
This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE reed or DMSE solid-state switches can be clamped to the body for end-of-stroke sensing; models ordered without -S have no magnet at all. The ACPJ family is discontinued - the current-production replacement is the ISO 21287 ACEJ12X110, a drop-in in the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, because the ACP is DIN-standard.
