This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ATE100X15 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ATE100X15 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 ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X15
The AirTAC Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X15 is a single acting, pull (spring return) DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 15mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ATE100X15 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X15
A single acting pull cylinder with spring return, the ATP100X15 uses a spring to extend the rod and compressed air to retract it, delivering 3395.3 N of pull at 0.5 MPa (4867.9 N at 0.7 MPa), both figures already net of the spring. It needs at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the spring, runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi), and moves at 50-500 mm/s. This model is discontinued; the current-production replacement is the ATE100X15, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.
The short ISO 21287 body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why a 100 mm bore fits clamping stations and press fixtures where a full-length body will not. At 0.5 MPa the pull equals about 346 kgf, so plan on lifting roughly 173 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The rod is 25 mm with a female M16x1.5 thread, the port is 1/4", and fixed TPU bumpers sit at both ends. No magnet is fitted on this code; order the -S variant if you need CMSE or DMSE switch detection.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ATE100X15 (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 (Ø100mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X15 Is Used
Bench press retraction
The 3395.3 N spring-extended pull retracts a 100 mm bore press ram on a small stamping bench, with the 15 mm stroke clearing the die between cycles at up to 500 mm/s.
Fixture clamp release
On a machining-center jig, air pressure pulls the clamp arm open while the spring keeps it normally extended, so a power cut leaves the workpiece clamped safe.
Gate latch on pallet conveyor
A normally extended latch pin on a pallet line drops when air is applied, using the 4867.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa to overcome pin friction and guide wear.
Replacing the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X15 with the ATE100X15
Size by force: the 80 mm bore pulls 2159.1 N at 0.5 MPa, while this 100 mm bore reaches 3395.3 N - step up only if your fixture needs the extra margin. Remember the spring returns the rod to its extended home on air loss and will not hold a mid-stroke position. Match FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis mounting to your fixture, and add the -S code if CMSE or DMSE switches are planned. For new designs, specify the ATE100X15 instead, as this ATP model is out of production.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ATE100X15
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force class
- ✓ Confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S for magnet if you need sensors
Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X15 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pulls 3395.3 N, and at 0.7 MPa it pulls 4867.9 N - both net of the return spring. Minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa, the operating range is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed is 50-500 mm/s, and the temperature range is -20 to +70 C. The spring extends the rod and air retracts it, so on air loss the rod returns to its extended home position rather than holding a mid-stroke position.
It is an ISO 21287 class short-body cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. Switches are only possible on the -S version, which carries the optional magnet for CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches; this standard code has no magnet. The model is discontinued - order the ATE100X15 and confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before the swap.
