This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACEJ16X90-75SB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACEJ16X90-75SB 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 ACPJ16X90-75SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X90-75SB 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 ACEJ16X90-75SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X90-75SB
Double acting and adjustable in stroke, the ACPJ16X90-75SB is a discontinued DIN-standard compact cylinder: 16 mm bore, 90 mm stroke and a male-threaded 8 mm rod, delivering 100.5 N push and 75.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa (140.7 N push at 0.7 MPa). The -75 code gives a 75 mm adjustment window, so an external stop screw trims the extend stroke anywhere in a 15-90 mm range on site. The 90 mm stroke is longer than the 75 mm standard maximum for bore 16, so it is made to order. It runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s, with a fixed TPU bumper at both ends.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with S45C hard-chrome rod is a short ISO 21287-class package that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarded gantries. 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 -S magnet this model carries drives CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches for end-of-stroke sensing. Production has ended: the current drop-in is ACEJ16X90, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACEJ16X90-75SB (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 ACEJ16X90-75SB 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 ACPJ16X90-75SB Is Used
Small-parts ejection on assembly fixtures
The 60 N usable push at 0.5 MPa parts light aluminium or plastic components from nests, and the 15-90 mm adjustable range lets one cylinder serve several fixture variants without re-plumbing.
Position-verified test stations
With the fitted -S magnet, CMSE or DMSE switches confirm full extension on electronics test rigs, while the male rod thread takes a custom probe tip directly.
Compact lid-clamp on packaging machines
About 5 kg of vertical holding at a 2:1 margin suits small guard or lid clamps, and the short body fits where an ISO 15552 profile cylinder cannot.
Replacing the Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ16X90-75SB with the ACEJ16X90-75SB
Size by force: bore 12 gives 56.5 N push and bore 20 gives 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, so the 16 mm bore at 100.5 N sits between them - step up to 20 mm if your 60 N working load needs margin, or down to 12 mm for lighter clamping. The stop screw is a mechanical end stop for the extend stroke, not a mid-stroke lock: on air loss the piston still drifts, so do not treat it as a load-holding brake. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings plus I/Y rod knuckles bolt to the standard face. This unit is discontinued; order ACEJ16X90 as the current-production replacement and verify the ISO 21287 footprint first.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACEJ16X90-75SB
- ✓ 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 ACPJ16X90-75SB FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 75.4 N; at 0.7 MPa, 140.7 N push and 105.6 N pull; theoretical maximum 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Bore 16 mm, stroke 90 mm (non-standard, made to order), 8 mm male-threaded rod, M5x0.8 ports, operating pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, -20 to +70 C, fixed TPU bumper both ends.
The -75 code sets a 75 mm window: a stop screw shortens the 90 mm extend stroke to any length from 15 mm upward, and the fixed TPU bumper decelerates at each end. The ACPJ family is discontinued; ACEJ16X90 is the current ISO 21287 drop-in with the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm its mounting dimensions before swapping.
