This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ATE100X15S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ATE100X15S 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 ATP100X15S
The AirTAC Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X15S 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 ATE100X15S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X15S
A single acting pull cylinder with spring return, the ATP100X15S keeps its rod extended at rest and retracts only when air is applied. At the 100 mm bore it delivers a net pull of 3395.3 N at 0.5 MPa and 4867.9 N at 0.7 MPa, with the spring force already deducted from both figures. Air filtered to 40 um at 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) drives it, proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed runs 50-500 mm/s. The 15 mm stroke sits well inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it is a catalog item, not a made-to-order length.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which matters when a 100 mm bore has to fit inside a press fixture or guard. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a 25 mm S45C hard-chrome rod with a female M16x1.5 thread, a 1/4" PT port, and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends. Because the S code is in this model, the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted directly. In practice the pull equals about 346 kg of vertical force at 0.5 MPa; plan on roughly 173 kg for a 2:1 margin when matching a real part weight. This model is discontinued - the current-production drop-in is the ATE100X15, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ATE100X15S (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 ATP100X15S Is Used
Spring-extended clamp on a stamping die
The spring holds the clamp closed on a sheet-metal stamping die; 3395.3 N of air pull at 0.5 MPa retracts it for die access, and the 15 mm stroke clears a latch quickly.
Return stroke on a drilling jig
On a pneumatic drilling jig the rod stays extended by spring to seat the workpiece; applying 0.2 MPa or more pulls the drill bushing plate back between cycles.
Fail-extended gate on a carton line
A carton divert gate on a packaging line defaults to closed when air drops, since the spring extends the rod; 4867.9 N at 0.7 MPa retracts it fast enough for 50-500 mm/s line speeds.
Replacing the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X15S with the ATE100X15S
Size against neighbors: the 80 mm bore pulls 2159.1 N at 0.5 MPa while this 100 mm bore pulls 3395.3 N, so step up only if your clamping or stripping force calculation exceeds the smaller bore. If you need a push stroke instead of a spring-extend pull, look at the ASP push type or the double acting ACP, both also replaced by ATE and ACE. On air loss the spring returns the rod to its extended home position and will not hold a mid-stroke point, so design end-of-stroke work only. Mounting brackets in the FA/FB flange and LB foot family bolt to the standard face, and the optional -S magnet this model carries pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches. Order the ATE100X15 as the current replacement and verify the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ATE100X15S
- ✓ 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 ATP100X15S FAQ
Net of the return spring, the 100 mm bore pulls 3395.3 N at 0.5 MPa and 4867.9 N at 0.7 MPa. Minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa (28-145 psi overall range, proof 1.5 MPa / 215 psi). For sizing, treat about 2037 N at 0.5 MPa as the realistic working pull, which is roughly 173 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. Speed range is 50-500 mm/s and the 15 mm stroke is within the 300 mm standard limit for this bore.
Order the ATE100X15, the current-production ISO 21287 successor with the same bore, stroke and force class; confirm the mounting dimensions against your fixture before swapping since this model follows the older DIN-standard compact layout. This specific model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches mount directly on the body; on plain ATP codes without the S the magnet is absent. The 1/4" PT port and female M16x1.5 rod thread carry over to the replacement family.
