This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ATE100X10S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ATE100X10S 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 ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X10S is a single acting, pull (spring return) DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ATE100X10S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
A single acting pull cylinder with spring return (discontinued), the ATP100X10S uses a 100 mm bore to deliver 3395.3 N of pull at 0.5 MPa and 4867.9 N at 0.7 MPa, both figures already net of the return spring. The spring holds the rod extended at rest, so the unit fails to the extended home position when air is lost; it does not hold a mid-stroke position. Air filtered to 40 um at 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) does the work, with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi) and a speed range of 50-500 mm/s.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why this bore size fits into presses, clamping fixtures and gantry stations where a full-length body would overhang. Because the S code is in this model, the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted directly on the hard-anodized aluminium body. In practical terms, the 3395.3 N pull at 0.5 MPa supports about 2037 N of real work once you plan for a 40% margin, which is roughly 207 kg of vertical load equivalent. This model is discontinued; the current-production drop-in is the ATE100X10, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ATE100X10S (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 | Pull force (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3395.3 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 4867.9 N |
Single-acting pull: the spring extends the rod; air retracts it. Forces already net the spring; minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa.
| ATP | DIN compact cylinder (single-acting pull, spring-return, discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 100 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×10 | Stroke length in mm. |
| 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 spring keeps the clamp arm retracted-clear until air pulls the fixture closed; 3395.3 N at 0.5 MPa handles heavy weldment clamps, and the 10 mm stroke is enough to free the pin.
A normally-extended latch that drops into place on air loss suits battery-change gates on forklift fleets; the 100 mm bore pulls the latch bar home and the -S magnet confirms the locked position.
Spring-extend action sweeps a scraper blade off a conveyor belt between cycles; 207 kg vertical-load equivalent covers sticky swarf loads, and the short body tucks under the guard.
Size by pull force, not push force: at 0.5 MPa this 100 mm bore pulls 3395.3 N net of the spring, while the 80 mm bore in the same family pulls 2159.1 N and there is no larger bore above 100 mm, so step down only if your load is under about 1295 N of real work. The 10 mm stroke suits short retraction moves such as releasing a clamp or clearing a part from a nest; longer single-acting strokes are not offered in this class. The female M16x1.5 rod thread takes standard I/Y knuckles, and FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis mounts bolt to the same face. Since the -S magnet is fitted here, add CMSE or DMSE switches for end-of-stroke signalling. Order the ATE100X10 as the current replacement and verify the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions first.
Replacement checklist
At 0.5 MPa the rod pulls 3395.3 N and at 0.7 MPa it pulls 4867.9 N, both already net of the return spring, so no further deduction is needed. The spring extends the rod and compressed air retracts it; a minimum of 0.2 MPa is required to overcome the spring. Operating range is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) with proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 50-500 mm/s, and the rod is 25 mm with a female M16x1.5 thread on a 1/4" PT port.
The ISO 21287-class short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits shallow pockets and guarded stations. A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends to soften the end positions only; it never locks or holds a load. This model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches mount on the body for end-of-stroke signals. The ATP family is discontinued: order the ATE100X10 as the current-production drop-in and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before the swap.
