This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACEJ16X90-75 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACEJ16X90-75 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 ACPJ16X90-75
The AirTAC Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X90-75 is a double acting, adjustable stroke DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 90mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACEJ16X90-75 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X90-75
Double acting and adjustable, the ACPJ16X90-75 is a DIN-standard compact cylinder with a 16 mm bore, a 90 mm made-to-order stroke and a 75 mm adjustment window. A stop screw trims the extend stroke on site anywhere in the 15-90 mm range, so one unit can serve several fixture depths. Push force is 100.5 N and pull 75.4 N at 0.5 MPa, rising to 140.7 N at 0.7 MPa. The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it fits tight jigs and guarded gantries.
The 90 mm stroke exceeds the 75 mm standard maximum for this bore, so it is built to order. 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 carries a fixed TPU bumper at each end and an S45C hard-chrome rod with an M4x0.7 female thread; ports are M5x0.8. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production replacement is the ACEJ16X90, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACEJ16X90-75 (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 ACEJ16X90-75 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 ACPJ16X90-75 Is Used
Depth-adjustable ejection pin
On a small plastic part demolding station, the 75 mm window lets one cylinder serve molds of different depths without re-plumbing - trim the 90 mm stroke down to 15 mm as needed.
Compact fixture clamp on a CNC jig
With about 60 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, the short body clamps brackets inside a milling fixture where a full-length profile cylinder would not fit behind the guard.
End-of-stroke verification on a pick station
Order the -S version to add CMSE / DMSE switches and confirm part seating on a small electronics assembly line; this non-S code carries no magnet.
Replacing the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X90-75 with the ACEJ16X90-75
At 100.5 N push (0.5 MPa) this bore suits light clamping and positioning; step down to the 12 mm bore (56.5 N) for smaller loads or up to the 20 mm bore (157.1 N) when force is marginal. The 75 mm window lets you dial the extend stroke from 15 mm to the full 90 mm, but remember the stop screw is a mechanical end stop only - on air loss the piston drifts, so it is not a load-holding lock. FA/FB flanges and LB feet bolt to the standard face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; this code has no magnet. Order the ACEJ16X90 as the current drop-in.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACEJ16X90-75
- ✓ 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 ACPJ16X90-75 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. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the fluid is air filtered to 40 um.
It is a non-standard, made-to-order stroke, so lead time applies. The ACPJ family is discontinued; the current-production replacement is the ACEJ16X90, an ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP was built to the DIN standard.
