This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACEJ16X150-100, 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 ACPJ16X150-100
The AirTAC ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X150-100 is a double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 150mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACEJ16X150-100 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X150-100
Double acting and adjustable, the ACPJ16X150-100 is a discontinued DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 16 mm bore and a 150 mm made-to-order stroke. Its 100 mm adjustment window lets a stop screw trim the extend stroke anywhere from 50 mm to 150 mm on site, and it pushes 100.5 N (pull 75.4 N) at 0.5 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome rod saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into shallow fixtures and guarding where a full-length body will not fit.
The 150 mm stroke exceeds the 75 mm standard maximum for this bore, so it is built to order. This model is discontinued; the current-production direct is the ACEJ16X150 in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. The rod end is female M4x0.7 and the port is M5x0.8.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACEJ16X150-100 (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 | 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).

Where the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X150-100 Is Used
Carton reject pusher
On a packaging line, the 150 mm made-to-order stroke sweeps misprinted cartons off a narrow conveyor where a full-length body would overhang the frame.
Lab sample press
About 5 kg of usable vertical lift lightly presses sample trays or lids in a compact lab fixture, with the stop screw set once during setup.
Replacing the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X150-100 with the ACEJ16X150-100
The 100 mm window suits jobs where the final extend position is tuned during commissioning, and the stop is a mechanical end stop only - it never holds a load on air loss. Mounting is FA/FB flange or LB foot, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; this code has no magnet. Order the ACEJ16X150 as the current replacement.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACEJ16X150-100
- ✓ 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 ACPJ16X150-100 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 75.4 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 140.7 N and pulls 105.6 N, with a theoretical maximum of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -100 code gives a 100 mm adjustment window, so the extend stroke can be trimmed anywhere between 50 mm and 150 mm. The 150 mm stroke is non-standard (bore 16 standard maximum is 75 mm) and made to order. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s.
It is a short-body ISO 21287 class compact cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body, S45C hard-chrome rod, fixed TPU bumpers at both ends and an M5x0.8 port. The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The ACPJ is discontinued; the current-production replacement is the ACEJ16X150 - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP follows the DIN standard.
