This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACEJ16X30-10, 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 ACPJ16X30-10
The AirTAC ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X30-10 is a double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 30mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACEJ16X30-10 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X30-10
The ACPJ16X30-10 is a double acting compact cylinder with an adjustable stroke: a stop screw trims the 30 mm extend stroke by up to 10 mm on site, giving a usable range of 20-30 mm. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 75.4 N, rising to 140.7 N at 0.7 MPa. The hard-anodized aluminium body follows the ISO 21287 short format, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarding where a full-length body cannot. Note: this model is discontinued - the current-production direct is the ACEJ16X30, same bore, stroke and force class.
The rod end is female M4x0.7, the port is M5x0.8, and fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the piston at both ends. This unit has no magnet fitted - order the -S code if you need CMSE / DMSE switch sensing. Speed range is 30-500 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACEJ16X30-10 (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 ACPJ16X30-10 Is Used
Ejector on a test rig
Pushes finished vials off a conveyor lane at up to 500 mm/s; order the -S version with a CMSE switch to confirm the rod has returned to the 20 mm minimum position.
Replacing the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X30-10 with the ACEJ16X30-10
The 10 mm window suits fixtures where the final extend position is tuned during commissioning. Remember the stop screw only shortens the extend stroke - it is not a mid-stroke lock, so the rod can drift if air is lost. FA/FB flanges and LB feet bolt to the ISO 21287 face. For new builds, specify the ACEJ16X30 instead and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACEJ16X30-10
- ✓ 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 ACPJ16X30-10 FAQ
Push is 100.5 N and pull 75.4 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 140.7 N and pull to 105.6 N, with a theoretical maximum of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is double acting, 16 mm bore, 30 mm stroke with a 10 mm adjustment window (usable 20-30 mm), M5x0.8 port, female M4x0.7 rod thread, speed 30-500 mm/s, and operating pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
No - the ACPJ16X30-10 is discontinued. The current-production replacement is the ACEJ16X30, a direct in the same bore, stroke and force class; confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping since the ACP is DIN-standard. On the adjuster: a stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm within the ordered window. It is a mechanical end stop only - it never holds a load, and on air loss the piston can drift.
