This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACEJ16X110-40B — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACEJ16X110-40B 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 ACPJ16X110-40B
The AirTAC Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X110-40B is a double acting, 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 ACEJ16X110-40B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X110-40B
This ACPJ16X110-40B is a double acting compact cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke: a stop screw trims the 110 mm stroke by up to 40 mm, giving a usable 70-110 mm range. It is discontinued; the current-production replacement is the ACEJ16X110, which matches the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP series follows the DIN-standard footprint. The 110 mm stroke exceeds the 75 mm maximum standard stroke for the 16 mm bore, so it is made to order.
At 0.5 MPa the bore delivers 100.5 N push and 75.4 N pull (140.7 N and 105.6 N at 0.7 MPa, 20.5 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa). In practice plan on roughly 60 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and gantries. A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends, the rod carries a male thread (B code), and no magnet is fitted - the optional -S code is required for CMSE / DMSE switch sensing.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACEJ16X110-40B (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 (Ø16mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 101 N | 75 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 141 N | 106 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 21 kgf | |
The ACEJ16X110-40B 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 ACPJ16X110-40B Is Used
Small-parts ejection in plastic molding
The 70-110 mm adjustable window lets a molding shop tune the eject throw per mold, with the 60 N usable push at 0.5 MPa clearing lightweight parts from shallow cavities.
Packaging line product diverters
A food-packaging conveyor can use the male-thread rod to drive a pusher arm, trimming the stroke on site to match carton widths while running at 30-500 mm/s.
Lab automation sample indexing
The short body fits inside compact analytical instrument frames, and the stop screw lets a technician dial the index distance between 70 and 110 mm without reprogramming.
Replacing the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X110-40B with the ACEJ16X110-40B
Size both ways: if 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa is more than your jig needs, the 12 mm bore gives 56.5 N; if you need more, the 20 mm bore delivers 157.1 N. Note the adjuster is a mechanical end stop for the extend stroke only - it does not hold a load if air is lost. Mount with FA/FB flanges or LB feet, and order the -S variant if CMSE / DMSE position sensing is planned. For new builds, specify the ACEJ16X110 instead.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACEJ16X110-40B
- ✓ 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 ACPJ16X110-40B FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 75.4 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 140.7 N push and 105.6 N pull, with a theoretical maximum of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -40 code sets a 40 mm adjustment window: a stop screw shortens the 110 mm extend stroke to as little as 70 mm. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 110 mm stroke is a made-to-order length since the bore 16 standard maximum is 75 mm.
Only if the optional -S magnet is ordered - this B-coded version has no magnet, so no CMSE or DMSE switch can be mounted. The ACPJ series is discontinued; the current drop-in is the ACEJ16X110 (ISO 21287), same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, and check the male rod thread on the replacement.
