This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ATE40X10 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ATE40X10 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 ATP40X10
The AirTAC Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP40X10 is a single acting, pull (spring return) DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ATE40X10 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP40X10
A single acting pull cylinder with spring return, the ATP40X10 keeps its rod extended by spring force and retracts it with compressed air, delivering 500.3 N of pull at 0.5 MPa (729 N at 0.7 MPa), both figures already net of the spring. The 40 mm bore needs at least 0.2 MPa of air to overcome the spring, runs on 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and moves at 50-500 mm/s over its short 10 mm stroke. Its 1/8" port and female M8x1.25 rod thread suit standard fittings and knuckles.
The short ISO 21287 class body in hard-anodized aluminium with an S45C hard-chrome rod saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarding where a full-length body cannot. A fixed TPU bumper at each end decelerates the rod. For a real-world margin, plan on about 300 N of usable pull at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 25 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note this model is discontinued: the current-production replacement is the ATE40X10, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ATE40X10 (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 (Ø40mm)
| Pressure | Pull force (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 500.3 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 729.0 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 ATP40X10 Is Used
Spring-up part ejection
On a stamping die or press fixture, the spring lifts a formed bracket clear of the tooling the moment air is lost, with 500.3 N of pull at 0.5 MPa handling parts up to about 25 kg with a 2:1 margin.
Fixture gate retraction
A 10 mm stroke is enough to pull a small locating pin or gate out of a CNC jig path; the normally-extended rest state keeps the fixture clear whenever the air supply drops.
Packaging lid hold-open
On a filling line, the spring holds a small guard or lid open by default and a solenoid valve pulls it closed only when the machine is safe to run, using the 729 N available at 0.7 MPa.
Replacing the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP40X10 with the ATE40X10
Size against the 500.3 N pull at 0.5 MPa: a 32 mm bore gives 296.0 N if the load is lighter, while a 50 mm bore reaches 775.0 N if you need more. The 10 mm stroke is well within the standard range for this bore. On air loss the spring returns the rod to its extended home position and no mid-stroke position is held, so add an external stop if the load must stay put. Mount with FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis, and order the -S code only if you need the optional magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches - without it no sensor can be fitted. This model is discontinued; the ATE40X10 is the current drop-in, so verify ISO 21287 mounting dimensions first.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ATE40X10
- ✓ 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 ATP40X10 FAQ
It is a single acting pull cylinder: the spring extends the rod and air retracts it. Pull is 500.3 N at 0.5 MPa and 729.0 N at 0.7 MPa, both net of the return spring. Minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa, the operating range is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed is 50-500 mm/s, and the 40 mm bore uses a 1/8" port with a female M8x1.25 rod thread on a 12 mm rod.
The short ISO 21287 class aluminium body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis mounts bolt to the standard face. The ATP family is discontinued; the current-production replacement is the ATE40X10 in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. The optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches; this code has no magnet fitted.
