This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ATE100X5S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ATE100X5S 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 ATP100X5S
The AirTAC Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X5S is a single acting, pull (spring return) DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 5mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ATE100X5S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X5S
Single acting pull cylinder with spring return, the ATP100X5S uses a spring to extend its 25 mm rod and compressed air to retract it over a short 5 mm stroke. This 100 mm bore size delivers a net pull of 3395.3 N at 0.5 MPa and 4867.9 N at 0.7 MPa, already subtracting the return spring. The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod sit in a short ISO 21287 class package that saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into dense clamping plates and guarded stations. Note this ATP family is discontinued; the current-production drop-in is the ATE100X5.
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 bolted on for end-of-stroke detection. The fixed TPU bumper at each end decelerates the rod without any adjustment. Working pressure is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof, and speed runs 50-500 mm/s. For sizing, treat about 2037 N (roughly 208 kg) as the usable pull at 0.5 MPa; vertically that corresponds to lifting about 173 kg with a 2:1 margin. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions of the ATE100X5 before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ATE100X5S (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 ATP100X5S Is Used
Pallet stopper release
Retracting a stopper blade on a heavy pallet conveyor line: the spring holds the stopper out and the 3395.3 N pull at 0.5 MPa yanks it clear in 5 mm when air arrives.
Fixture latch unclamp
Unlatching a machined housing on a CNC fixture plate, where the short ISO 21287 body fits under the clamp arm and the spring-extend action fails safe to the locked position.
Gate pin puller
Pulling a locking pin from an AGV docking gate; the 100 mm bore gives about 208 kg of practical pull at 0.5 MPa and the -S magnet confirms retraction via a DMSE switch.
Replacing the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP100X5S with the ATE100X5S
At 100 mm bore this is the strongest ATP size, pulling 3395.3 N at 0.5 MPa where a 63 mm bore manages only 1320 N; there is no larger bore in the family. The 5 mm stroke suits detent, locking or release actions that need barely any travel, and the spring-extend behavior means the rod sits out at rest and retracts only when air is applied. Choose the female M16x1.5 rod thread as coded here, add FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis hardware to match the fixture, and keep CMSE or DMSE switches in the build since the -S magnet is present. Order the ATE100X5 as the current replacement and verify its ISO 21287 footprint first.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ATE100X5S
- ✓ 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 ATP100X5S FAQ
Net of the return spring, this 100 mm bore pulls 3395.3 N at 0.5 MPa and 4867.9 N at 0.7 MPa over its 5 mm stroke. Air must reach at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the spring. A practical plan is to load it to about 2037 N (roughly 208 kg) at 0.5 MPa, or about 173 kg for vertical lifting with a 2:1 margin. Speed range is 50-500 mm/s and the port is 1/4" PT.
No, the ATP family is discontinued. The current-production drop-in is the ATE100X5, which keeps the same 100 mm bore, 5 mm stroke and force class in an ISO 21287 compact body. Because the ATP was built to a DIN-standard footprint, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions of the ATE100X5 before swapping. The -S magnet on this unit carries over as an option, working with CMSE or DMSE switches.
