This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ATE100X25S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ATE100X25S 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 ATP100X25S is a single acting, pull (spring return) DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 25mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ATE100X25S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
A single acting pull cylinder with spring extend, the ATP100X25S keeps its 25 mm rod normally extended and uses compressed air to retract it. At 0.5 MPa the net pull is 3395.3 N (4867.9 N at 0.7 MPa, spring already deducted), so at 0.2 MPa minimum pressure it still beats the spring. 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 dense press fixtures and clamping gantries. Note this ATP family is discontinued; the current-production drop-in is the ATE100X25.
Practical sizing: plan on roughly 2037 N of real work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating, which corresponds to lifting about 173 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The -S code on this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted for end-of-stroke detection. Air supply must be filtered to 40 um, speed range is 50-500 mm/s, and a fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends. Before swapping in the ATE100X25, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions, since this DIN-standard body differs.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ATE100X25S (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. |
| ×25 | 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).
Retracts a die-locating pin in a 25 mm stroke press station; the spring keeps the pin extended whenever air pressure drops below 0.2 MPa.
Pulls a divert gate open on a bottling conveyor at 50-500 mm/s, with the 3395.3 N net pull at 0.5 MPa overcoming gate friction and product back-pressure.
With the fitted -S magnet and a DMSE switch, confirms full retraction of a clamp arm in an automotive weld cell before the robot cycle starts.
For a 25 mm retract stroke with about 3.4 kN of pull, the 100 mm bore is the right class; if your load is under roughly 1320 N at 0.5 MPa, the 63 mm bore cuts cost and air use, while there is no larger bore in this series. On air loss the spring returns the rod to its extended home position and no mid-stroke position is held, so add an external lock if the load must stay put. Mounting brackets and the female M16x1.5 rod thread carry over to the ATE100X25 replacement - verify the ISO 21287 hole pattern before ordering.
Replacement checklist
Net of the return spring, this 100 mm bore unit pulls 3395.3 N at 0.5 MPa and 4867.9 N at 0.7 MPa. The spring extends the rod and air retracts it, so at least 0.2 MPa (28-145 psi operating band, 1.5 MPa / 215 psi proof) is needed to move the rod. Speed range is 50-500 mm/s with a 1/4" port and M16x1.5 female rod thread.
Order the ATE100X25, the current-production ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you get the same 100 mm bore, 25 mm stroke and force class in a short body that saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture first, since the ATP is a DIN-standard compact body, and remember the magnet on this unit is the optional -S fitment, not a default on every replacement.
