This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACEJ16X110-40, 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.

The AirTAC ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X110-40 is a double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø16mm 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 ACEJ16X110-40 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
The ACPJ16X110-40 is a double acting compact cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke: a stop screw trims the 110 mm stroke by up to 40 mm on site, giving a usable range of 70-110 mm. The 110 mm stroke exceeds the 75 mm standard limit for bore 16, so it is a made-to-order build. This model is discontinued; the current-production replacement is the ACEJ16X110, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
The short ISO 21287 body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into cramped jigs and guard rails. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends only decelerates the piston; it never locks or holds a load, so on air loss the rod can drift. Rod end is a female M4x0.7 thread and the port is M5x0.8.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACEJ16X110-40 (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.
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 75 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 106 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 15 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).
| ACPJ | DIN compact cylinder (adjustable-stroke, discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 16 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×110 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -40 | Adjustable stroke window (mm the extend stroke can be shortened on site). |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing (omit for no magnet). |
| B | Rod type: B = male thread; blank = female thread. |
Replacement mapping (swap P for E): ACP→ACE, ASP→ASE, ATP→ATE, ACPD→ACED, ACPJ→ACEJ. ACP-family: ACP (double acting), ASP / ATP (single acting push / pull), ACPD (double rod), ACPJ (double rod, adjustable stroke).
The 70-110 mm trim range lets a technician dial the eject stroke to clear a shallow cavity without re-machining the fixture, using about 60 N of usable push force at 0.5 MPa.
Mounted on an LB foot under a low guard, the short body fits where a full-length cylinder cannot, and the 40 mm window absorbs carton-width changes without swapping the cylinder.
The female M4x0.7 rod thread takes a knuckle for light pressing of vials or slides, and the 5 kg vertical-lift margin suits small cap or lid placement heads.
Remember the stop screw is an end stop only, not a mid-stroke lock. FA/FB flanges and LB feet bolt straight to the ISO 21287 face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches - this code has no S, so no magnet is fitted. For new projects, order the ACEJ16X110 instead.
Replacement checklist
It is double acting with a 40 mm adjustment window (usable stroke 70-110 mm), M5x0.8 port, female M4x0.7 rod thread, operating pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends. The 110 mm stroke is made to order since bore 16 tops out at 75 mm standard.
Only with the optional -S magnet code, which allows CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches; this ACPJ16X110-40 has no S in its code, so no magnet is fitted and no sensor can be mounted. The model itself is discontinued - the current direct is the ACEJ16X110 in the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before swapping.
