This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACEJ12X200-10S, the same code under the new prefix. 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 ACPJ12X200-10S
The AirTAC ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ12X200-10S is a double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø12mm bore and 200mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACEJ12X200-10S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ12X200-10S
This is a double acting compact cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke: the -10 code gives a 10 mm window, so a stop screw trims the 200 mm stroke down to 190 mm on site. Bore 12 mm delivers 56.5 N push and 42.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa (79.2 N push at 0.7 MPa), with a theoretical peak of 11.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 34 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 2.9 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The 200 mm stroke exceeds the 50 mm standard maximum for bore 12, so it is a made-to-order stroke.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it suits narrow slides and slim guarding. A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, and the -S magnet this model carries lets CMSE or DMSE switches report end positions. Note that this ACPJ model is discontinued; the current-production replacement is ACEJ12X200, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP is DIN-standard.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACEJ12X200-10S (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 | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 42 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 59 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 9 kgf |
ACPJ is double-rod: the rear rod that carries the stroke adjuster exits the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area. The rod-side (annular) area is used for both directions (conservative).

Where the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ12X200-10S Is Used
End-position sensing on small slides
The fitted -S magnet works with CMSE or DMSE switches to confirm extend and retract on a 190-200 mm light-duty slide running 30-500 mm/s.
Slim fixture clamping
56.5 N push at 0.5 MPa clamps small brackets or PCB fixtures where the short body must fit inside tight jig walls.
Light part ejection
About 34 N of usable force ejects small stamped or molded parts from a nest, with the 10 mm stop screw trimming the extend stroke to match the nest depth.
Replacing the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ12X200-10S with the ACEJ12X200-10S
At 56.5 N push at 0.5 MPa, bore 12 suits light clamping and sensing slides; step up to bore 16 (100.5 N) or bore 20 (157.1 N) when the load grows. The adjuster is a mechanical end stop for the extend stroke, not a mid-stroke lock, so the rod still drifts if air is lost. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the standard face, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches. Order ACEJ12X200 as the current drop-in successor.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACEJ12X200-10S
- ✓ 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 ACPJ12X200-10S 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. Theoretical maximum is 11.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, temperature -20 to +70 C.
The -10 code sets a 10 mm window: an external stop screw shortens the 200 mm extend stroke to as little as 190 mm; it cannot lengthen the stroke. A fixed TPU bumper decelerates at each end. This ACPJ is discontinued; ACEJ12X200 is the current ISO 21287 drop-in, so confirm mounting dimensions before swapping.
