This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ATE32X10SB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ATE32X10SB 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 ATP32X10SB is a single acting, pull (spring return) DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ATE32X10SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
A single acting pull cylinder with spring return, the ATP32X10SB keeps its 12 mm rod extended by an internal spring and retracts it with air pressure. At 0.5 MPa the net pull is 296 N (434.2 N at 0.7 MPa), and at least 0.2 MPa is needed to overcome the spring. The 32 mm bore takes a 1/8" port, and the S code in this model means the magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted directly on the hard-anodized aluminium body.
The short ISO 21287-class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which makes it easy to tuck into tight jigs and guarding. For sizing, treat roughly 178 N (about 0.6 of the 296 N rating) as the usable pull at 0.5 MPa - in vertical terms that lifts about 15 kg with a 2:1 margin. The male rod thread (B code) suits external knuckles and tooling links. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production replacement is the ATE32X10, so confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ATE32X10SB (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 | 296.0 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 434.2 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). |
|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×10 | 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).
On a CNC milling jig, the spring keeps the clamp arm retracted-safe until air pulls it in; the 296 N net pull at 0.5 MPa secures small aluminium blanks in the 10 mm working window.
With the fitted magnet and a DMSE switch on the hard-anodized body, a PCB tray ejector on a conveyor confirms full retraction before the next station indexes.
A packaging machine uses the male rod thread to drive a hold-down pin that retracts cartons against a stop; the short body fits inside the guard where a full-length cylinder cannot.
At 296 N net pull at 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm unit sits mid-range: step down to the 25 mm bore (170.9 N) for lighter clamping, or up to 40 mm (500.3 N) when the load grows. The 10 mm stroke is well within the standard range for this bore. Because the spring returns the rod to its extended home on air loss, it will not hold a mid-stroke position - pick a double-acting ACP/ACE type if you need that. The fitted -S magnet pairs with CMSE / DMSE switches, and FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis mounts bolt to the same face. For new projects, order the ATE32X10 instead.
Replacement checklist
Net of the return spring, the 32 mm bore pulls 296 N at 0.5 MPa and 434.2 N at 0.7 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature -20 to +70 C, speed 50-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, 1/8" port, 12 mm rod with male thread, and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends. The magnet is the -S option, which this model carries, enabling CMSE / DMSE switches.
Order the ATE32X10, the current ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you get the same bore, stroke and force class in a matching short body. Before swapping, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture, since the ATP follows the DIN-standard footprint, and check whether your mounting bracket (FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis) carries over.
