This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ATE50X10SB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ATE50X10SB 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 ATP50X10SB
The AirTAC Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP50X10SB 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 ATE50X10SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP50X10SB
A single acting pull cylinder with spring return, the ATP50X10SB keeps its 16 mm rod extended by spring and retracts it with compressed air. At 0.5 MPa the net pull is 775 N (1127.5 N at 0.7 MPa, already subtracting the spring), and the spring needs at least 0.2 MPa (28-145 psi working band) to be overcome. The 10 mm stroke suits short retraction moves only, running 50-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um.
The short ISO 21287-class body cuts mounting length by roughly half versus an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight fixtures. This SB version carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches can read end positions, and the B code gives a male rod thread. A fixed TPU bumper pads both ends without locking anything. Note the ATP family is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is the ATE50X10, and you should confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. As a planning figure, treat about 465 N (roughly 47 kg of pull) as the practical working load at 0.5 MPa, and expect around 39 kg of vertical lift capability with a 2:1 margin.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ATE50X10SB (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 ATP50X10SB Is Used
Carton clamp retraction
On a secondary packaging line, the spring-extended rod holds a clamp closed and the 775 N pull retracts it in a 10 mm release stroke when the carton is set down.
Guard interlock return
A bottling line safety gate uses the spring to keep the latch extended; air retracts it, and the fitted -S magnet feeds a CMSE switch to confirm the locked position.
Fixture part release
In a CNC jig, the normally extended rod lifts a locating pin clear of the part on command; the compact short body fits where a full-length profile cylinder cannot.
Replacing the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP50X10SB with the ATE50X10SB
At 775 N net pull at 0.5 MPa, this 50 mm bore sits between the 40 mm class (500 N) and the 63 mm class (1320 N) - step down for lighter clamps, up for heavier retraction. If your load must stay put on air loss, remember the spring only drives the rod to its extended home and will not hold a mid-stroke position. Mounting options include FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis, and the -S magnet on this model accepts CMSE / DMSE switches. For new projects, order the ATE50X10 instead, since the ATP is out of production.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ATE50X10SB
- ✓ 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 ATP50X10SB FAQ
Single acting pull, spring extend: net pull is 775 N at 0.5 MPa and 1127.5 N at 0.7 MPa, both already net of the return spring. Bore 50 mm, stroke 10 mm, rod 16 mm with male thread, 1/8" PT port. Operating pressure 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, fixed TPU bumpers at both ends.
Order the ATE50X10, the current-production ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you get the same bore, stroke and force class in a matching short body. Because the ATP is a DIN-standard compact design, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions against your fixture before swapping. The -S magnet on this unit carries over as an option on the ATE for CMSE / DMSE switching.
