This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ATE25X15 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ATE25X15 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 ATP25X15
The AirTAC Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP25X15 is a single acting, pull (spring return) DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 15mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ATE25X15 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP25X15
A single acting compact pull cylinder, the ATP25X15 uses an internal spring to hold the rod extended and compressed air at 0.2 MPa or more to retract it over a 15 mm stroke. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 170.9 N of pull net of the spring (253.3 N at 0.7 MPa), so it suits light clamping and return-to-home tasks in the 25 mm bore class. The hard-anodized aluminium body with an S45C hard-chrome 10 mm rod carries a fixed TPU bumper at each end.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into tight jigs and guarding where a full-length body will not fit. In practice, plan on roughly 103 N of usable pull at 0.5 MPa - about 10 kgf, or around 5 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin - when matching it to a real part weight. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production replacement is the ATE25X15, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ATE25X15 (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 (Ø25mm)
| Pressure | Pull force (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 170.9 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 253.3 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 ATP25X15 Is Used
Spring-out locating pin in a drill jig
The spring keeps the pin extended for part loading; 170.9 N of air pull at 0.5 MPa retracts it 15 mm clear of the workpiece before machining.
Hold-open gate on a small carton line
Fails to extended on air loss, so the gate stays open and cartons pass safely; 0.2 MPa minimum pressure is enough to cycle it closed.
Sample holder return on a bench tester
The 15 mm stroke and about 5 kg vertical-lift margin suit lightweight specimen trays that must spring back to home between tests.
Replacing the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP25X15 with the ATE25X15
Size against the 25 mm bore's 170.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa: step down to a 20 mm bore (88.1 N) for lighter latches, or up to a 32 mm bore (296.0 N) if the spring must overcome more drag. Because the spring returns the rod to its extended home on air loss, the ATP25X15 does not hold a mid-stroke position - pick a double-acting ACP/ACE if you need to stop mid-travel. This version has a female M6x1.0 rod thread and PT ports; there is no magnet fitted, so position sensing with CMSE / DMSE switches requires ordering the optional -S code. For new builds, specify the ATE25X15 instead.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ATE25X15
- ✓ 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 ATP25X15 FAQ
It is a single acting pull cylinder: the spring extends the rod and air retracts it. Pull is 170.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 253.3 N at 0.7 MPa, both net of the return spring. A practical planning figure is about 103 N of usable pull at 0.5 MPa - roughly 10 kgf, or about 5 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. Operating range is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof, speed 50-500 mm/s, and the M5x0.8 port takes air filtered to 40 um.
Only if the optional -S magnet is ordered - this ATP25X15 code has no magnet, so no CMSE or DMSE switch can be mounted as-is. The model itself is discontinued; the current-production drop-in is the ATE25X15 (same 25 mm bore, 15 mm stroke and force class). Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before swapping, and use FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis brackets to match the mounting face.
