This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ASE63X10SB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ASE63X10SB 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 ASP Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ASP63X10SB
The AirTAC Airtac ASP Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ASP63X10SB is a single acting, push (spring return) DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ASE63X10SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ASP Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ASP63X10SB
A single acting push cylinder with spring return, the ASP63X10SB extends its 16 mm rod with air and retracts it by spring, so one air line is all the plumbing takes. At 0.5 MPa this 63 mm bore delivers 1420.5 N of push, already net of the return spring, rising to 2044 N at 0.7 MPa. The 10 mm stroke suits short clamp-and-release moves, and the spring drives the rod home whenever air is lost. Minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa, needed to overcome the spring.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixture plates and guarded stations. For planning, treat roughly 852 N (about 0.6 of the rated push) as the usable force at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 72 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a male-threaded S45C hard-chrome rod, and the S code means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE switches can report end positions. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production replacement is ASE63X10, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ASE63X10SB (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 (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Push force (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1420.5 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2044.0 N |
Single-acting push: air extends the rod; the return spring retracts it. Forces already net the spring; minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa.

Where the Airtac ASP Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ASP63X10SB Is Used
Press-fit locating pin
The 1420.5 N push at 0.5 MPa seats dowel-pinned housings into a machining fixture over the 10 mm stroke, and the spring retracts the pin the moment the valve vents.
Gate latch on a small CNC loader
Air extends the male-threaded rod to lock a sliding guard gate; on power loss the spring returns it, a fail-safe posture for operator safety interlocks.
Presence check on a packaging line
With the fitted -S magnet and a DMSE switch, the controller confirms the 63 mm probe reached the carton flap before the case sealer cycles.
Replacing the Airtac ASP Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ASP63X10SB with the ASE63X10SB
At 0.5 MPa the 63 mm bore pushes 1420.5 N net of the spring. Step down to a 50 mm bore (875.5 N) for lighter clamps or up to an 80 mm bore (2316.2 N) when the part resists harder. Keep the working load near 852 N and expect about 72 kg of vertical lift capability at a 2:1 margin. The spring returns the rod to the retracted home position on air loss and will not hold a mid-stroke setting. This unit has the male rod thread (B) and the optional -S magnet fitted, so CMSE / DMSE switches bolt straight on; FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis mounts are available. Since ASP is discontinued, order ASE63X10 as the drop-in successor and verify the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions first.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ASE63X10SB
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force class
- ✓ Confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S for magnet if you need sensors
Airtac ASP Single Acting Guided Compact Cylinder ASP63X10SB FAQ
Push is 1420.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 2044 N at 0.7 MPa, both already net of the return spring. Working pressure is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof, air filtered to 40 um. Speed range is 50-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C, and the 1/8" port depends on the 63 mm bore. Plan on about 852 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa, roughly 72 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin.
Order ASE63X10, the current-production single acting push cylinder in the same force class: swap the P for an E and you keep the 63 mm bore, 10 mm stroke and spring-return behavior. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before the swap, and re-check the male rod thread and 1/8" port on the ASE datasheet.
