This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACEJ20X110-10S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACEJ20X110-10S 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.

The AirTAC Airtac ACPJ Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACPJ20X110-10S is a double acting, adjustable stroke DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 110mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACEJ20X110-10S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
This double acting compact cylinder carries the optional -S magnet and a 10 mm adjustable-stroke window, so a stop screw trims the 110 mm extend stroke down to 100 mm on site. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 157.1 N and pulls 117.8 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 219.9 N. The 110 mm stroke exceeds the 100 mm maximum standard stroke for a 20 mm bore, so it is a made-to-order build.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight pick-and-place gantries and fixture slides. As a rule of thumb, plan for about 94 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production replacement is ACEJ20X110, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACEJ20X110-10S (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.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 157 N | 118 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 220 N | 165 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 32 kgf | |
The ACEJ20X110-10S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.
| ACPJ | DIN compact cylinder (adjustable-stroke, discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 20 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×110 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -10 | Adjustable stroke window (mm the extend stroke can be shortened on site). |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing (omit for no magnet). |
| B | Rod type: B = male thread; blank = female thread. |
Replacement mapping (swap P for E): ACP→ACE, ASP→ASE, ATP→ATE, ACPD→ACED, ACPJ→ACEJ. ACP-family: ACP (double acting), ASP / ATP (single acting push / pull), ACPD (double rod), ACPJ (adjustable stroke).
The 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa clamps small aluminium brackets during drilling, and the 10 mm window lets you trim the stroke to clear the fixture body.
With about 8 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the 20 mm bore pushes finished bushings out of shallow die pockets at up to 500 mm/s.
The fitted -S magnet works with CMSE / DMSE switches to confirm the rod reached the trimmed end position on a 100-110 mm gate stroke.
Size it against neighbours: the 16 mm bore gives 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a larger bore raises force further. The 10 mm window shortens the extend stroke only; it is a mechanical end stop, not a mid-stroke lock, so the rod still drifts if air is lost. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the standard face, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches. Order ACEJ20X110 as the current drop-in.
Replacement checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 157.1 N and pulls 117.8 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 219.9 N and pulls 164.9 N. The theoretical maximum is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-500 mm/s.
The -10 code gives a 10 mm window: an external stop screw shortens the 110 mm extend stroke to as little as 100 mm. The model is discontinued; ACEJ20X110 is the current ISO 21287 drop-in in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm its mounting dimensions before swapping.
