This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ATE80X20SB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ATE80X20SB 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 ATP80X20SB is a single acting, pull (spring return) DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 20mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ATE80X20SB (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
A single acting pull cylinder with spring return, the ATP80X20SB keeps its 20 mm rod extended by spring force and retracts it with compressed air at 0.2 MPa or higher. This discontinued 80 mm bore unit delivers 2159.1 N of pull at 0.5 MPa and 3101.6 N at 0.7 MPa, both figures already net of the spring. The male rod thread (B code) and the fitted -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches make it a strong fit for clamped fixtures that need position feedback.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is an ISO 21287 class compact build, roughly 50% shorter in mounting length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight welding jigs and press gantries. A fixed TPU bumper sits at both ends. For planning: about 1295 N of real work is a sensible budget at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 66 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. This model is discontinued; the current-production drop-in is the ATE80X20, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ATE80X20SB (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 | 2159.1 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3101.6 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). |
|---|---|
| 80 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×20 | 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).
The 2159.1 N spring-extended pull clamps a steel bracket into a weld jig, and air retracts the 20 mm rod between cycles at up to 500 mm/s.
Mounted on a short gantry where a full-length profile cylinder will not fit, the 80 mm bore pulls a latch open with 1295 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa.
With the fitted -S magnet, CMSE or DMSE switches confirm the slide has returned to its spring-extended home before the die change sequence starts.
At 80 mm bore this is near the top of the pull range: 2159.1 N at 0.5 MPa versus 1320 N for the 63 mm bore, while the 100 mm bore reaches 3395.3 N if you need more. The 20 mm stroke stays within the standard range for this bore. Remember the spring returns the rod to its extended home on air loss and will not hold a mid-stroke position. If you need FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis mounting, or the male thread in a different length, the ATE80X20 carries the same force class as the current replacement.
Replacement checklist
At 0.5 MPa the net pull is 2159.1 N, and at 0.7 MPa it reaches 3101.6 N; both values are already net of the return spring. Air must reach at least 0.2 MPa (28-145 psi operating band) to overcome the spring and retract the rod. On air loss the spring extends the rod home; it does not hold a mid-stroke position. Speed range is 50-500 mm/s.
The hard-anodized aluminium body follows the short ISO 21287 class footprint, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, with a 1/4" port and a fixed TPU bumper at each end. The ATP family is discontinued; the ATE80X20 is the current-production drop-in with the same bore, stroke and force class. Confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before ordering the swap.
