This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. The drop-in replacement is ACEJ16X75-10B — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACEJ16X75-10B 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 ACPJ16X75-10B
The AirTAC Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X75-10B is a double acting, adjustable stroke DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 75mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACEJ16X75-10B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X75-10B
The ACPJ16X75-10B is a discontinued double acting adjustable-stroke compact cylinder: a 16 mm bore pushes 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa (140.7 N at 0.7 MPa) through an 8 mm hard-chrome S45C rod with a male thread (B code). Its ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs, guarding and gantries. The -10 code gives a 10 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw trims the extend stroke on site, so the usable range is 65-75 mm.
Plan on roughly 60 N of real work at 0.5 MPa (about 0.6 of the rated push), which lifts about 5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin - enough for small clamps, gates and ejector tools. The fixed TPU bumper at each end only decelerates the piston; it never locks a load, so on air loss the rod drifts. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the magnet is the optional -S code (not fitted here, so no CMSE / DMSE switch can be mounted). Replacement: ACEJ16X75, current production - confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACEJ16X75-10B (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 ACEJ16X75-10B 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 ACPJ16X75-10B Is Used
Small-part press fitting
Pressing dowel pins or bushings into aluminium housings on an electronics assembly bench, where the 65-75 mm trimmed stroke and about 60 N working force match light interference fits.
Pick-and-place lift of fixtures
Lifting about 5 kg fixture plates vertically on a semiconductor handling gantry, using the short ISO 21287 body to fit inside the Z-axis frame.
Gate indexing on packaging lines
Indexing small product gates on a pharmaceutical blister packaging machine, with the male-thread rod (B) driving a knuckle lever at 30-500 mm/s.
Replacing the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X75-10B with the ACEJ16X75-10B
Size both ways: the 12 mm bore gives 56.5 N push at 0.5 MPa for lighter clamping, while the 20 mm bore delivers 157.1 N when you need roughly 1.5x more force. This 16 mm model suits mid-range loads around 60 N working force. Ports are M5x0.8 (port depends only on bore), the rod thread is male (B), and PT is the port thread; FA/FB flanges and LB feet bolt to the ISO 21287 face. If you need position sensing, order the -S magnet variant - this code has no magnet. For new projects specify the ACEJ16X75, the current drop-in successor.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACEJ16X75-10B
- ✓ 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 ACPJ16X75-10B 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; theoretical maximum is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -10 code sets a 10 mm adjustment window: an external stop screw shortens the 75 mm extend stroke on site, giving a usable 65-75 mm range. The stop is a mechanical end stop only - it does not hold a load if air is lost.
The hard-anodized aluminium body follows the ISO 21287 short format, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with FA/FB flange and LB foot mounting. Switches need the optional -S magnet code (CMSE / DMSE); this model has no S, so no magnet is fitted. The ACPJ is discontinued - the current-production replacement is the ACEJ16X75, same bore, stroke and force class; confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
