This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ATE63X15 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ATE63X15 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 ATP63X15
The AirTAC Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP63X15 is a single acting, pull (spring return) DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 15mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ATE63X15 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP63X15
The ATP63X15 is a single acting pull cylinder with spring return: a spring extends the rod and compressed air retracts it, so the unit sits normally extended and fails to the extended position on air loss. At 0.5 MPa it pulls 1320 N net of the spring (1903.2 N at 0.7 MPa), and it needs at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the spring. Its short ISO 21287 class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it slots into tight fixtures a full-length body cannot reach. Note: this model is discontinued; the current-production drop-in is the ATE63X15.
For sizing, plan on about 792 N of real work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full 1320 N rating, which corresponds to lifting roughly 67 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The hard-anodized aluminium body carries a 16 mm S45C hard-chrome rod with a female M10x1.5 thread and a fixed TPU bumper at both ends. No magnet is fitted on this code, so no switch can be mounted; order the optional -S version if you need CMSE or DMSE sensors. Speed range is 50-500 mm/s.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ATE63X15 (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 (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Pull force (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1320.0 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1903.2 N |
Single-acting pull: the spring extends the rod; air retracts it. Forces already net the spring; minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa.

Where the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP63X15 Is Used
Clamp release on a press jig
Spring holds the clamp open and a 0.5 MPa air signal pulls the 1320 N rod to release a machined housing only when the press cycle is confirmed safe.
Gate return on a packaging line
A 15 mm pull retracts a guide gate on a carton conveyor; if air drops, the spring snaps the gate back to its extended home without operator input.
Part eject from a drilling fixture
Air pulls the finished aluminium bracket off its locating pin at up to 500 mm/s, and the spring re-extends the rod for the next load.
Replacing the Airtac ATP Single Acting Port Compact Cylinder ATP63X15 with the ATE63X15
Compare forces at 0.5 MPa before committing: the 50 mm bore pulls 775 N while this 63 mm bore reaches 1320 N, and the 80 mm bore steps up to 2159 N if you need more. Because the spring only returns the rod to its extended home, the ATP63X15 will not hold a mid-stroke position under load. Foot (LB), flange (FA/FB) and clevis (CA/CB) mountings bolt to the standard face, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switch positioning. Since this model is discontinued, order the ATE63X15 and confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, as the ATP follows the DIN-standard footprint.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ATE63X15
- ✓ 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 ATP63X15 FAQ
Net of the return spring it pulls 1320 N at 0.5 MPa and 1903.2 N at 0.7 MPa. Working pressure is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof, air filtered to 40 um, temperature -20 to +70 C, speed 50-500 mm/s. The 63 mm bore drives a 16 mm rod with a female M10x1.5 thread and a 1/8" port; a practical working figure is about 792 N, or roughly 67 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.
The short ISO 21287 class body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a fixed TPU bumper at each end of the 15 mm stroke. The ATP63X15 is discontinued; the current-production replacement is the ATE63X15 in the same bore, stroke and force class - confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ATP follows the DIN-standard footprint. Position sensing requires the optional -S magnet code for CMSE / DMSE switches.
