This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ATE50X10S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ATE50X10S 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 ATP50X10S
The AirTAC Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP50X10S is a single acting, pull (spring return) DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ATE50X10S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP50X10S
A single acting pull cylinder with spring return, the ATP50X10S uses a spring to extend the rod and compressed air to retract it, so the assembly rests normally extended and fails to the extended position if air is lost. This 50 mm bore version delivers 775 N of pull at 0.5 MPa and 1127.5 N at 0.7 MPa, both figures already net of the return spring, with a short 10 mm stroke. It is discontinued; the current-production replacement is the ATE50X10, which keeps the same bore, stroke and force class.
The compact ISO 21287 body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it suits tight clamping nests and sliding guards. Because the S code is in this model, the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be mounted for end-of-stroke signalling. A practical sizing check: plan on about 465 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 39 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Operating pressure is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) with a minimum of 0.2 MPa needed to overcome the spring, speed range 50-500 mm/s, and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ATE50X10S (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 (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Pull force (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 775.0 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1127.5 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 ATP50X10S Is Used
Spring-extended clamping nest
On a CNC fixture the spring holds the clamp extended by default, and 775 N of air pull at 0.5 MPa retracts it only while the signal is live - a fail-safe grip on the workpiece if air pressure drops.
Lid-lift on a small assembly press
The 10 mm stroke is enough to pop a light guard lid or fixture cap open about 39 kg equivalent vertical load with margin, and the spring snaps it shut the moment the valve exhausts.
Position-signalled release slide
With the fitted -S magnet driving a CMSE or DMSE switch, a packaging machine can confirm the retracted state of a short-stamp or eject slide running at 50-500 mm/s.
Replacing the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP50X10S with the ATE50X10S
Size the pull force both ways before committing: the 40 mm bore gives 500.3 N at 0.5 MPa if your load is lighter, while the 63 mm bore reaches 1320 N at 0.5 MPa if you need more margin than the 775 N of this 50 mm model. Remember the spring returns the rod to its extended home on air loss and will not hold a mid-stroke position, so use a external stop or a different series if you must hold position. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis, and the fitted -S magnet accepts CMSE / DMSE switches. Since this model is discontinued, order the ATE50X10 instead and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, because the ATP was built to a DIN-standard footprint.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ATE50X10S
- ✓ 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 ATP50X10S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the rod pulls 775 N; at 0.7 MPa it pulls 1127.5 N. Both figures are net of the return spring, so no deduction is needed. The spring extends the rod and air retracts it, minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa (range 0.2-1.0 MPa / 28-145 psi, proof 1.5 MPa / 215 psi), speed is 50-500 mm/s, the bore is 50 mm with a 16 mm rod, the port is 1/8" PT and the female rod thread is M10x1.5. Fluid is air filtered to 40 um, temperature range -20 to +70 C, with a fixed TPU bumper at both ends.
Order the ATE50X10: swap the P for an E and you get the current-production ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same 50 mm bore, 10 mm stroke and force class. Before swapping, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture, since the ATP followed a DIN-standard layout. The ATE keeps the same mounting family - FA/FB flange, LB foot, CA/CB clevis - and the -S magnet option for CMSE / DMSE switches.
