Airtac MID Series Double Rod Mini Cylinder MID25X150

Delivering 206.1 N of thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, the AirTAC MID25X150 is a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder built for balanced actuation. Because the Ø10 mm piston rod exits both end covers, extend and retract forces are perfectly equal, completely eliminating the pressure differential found in single-rod units. The twin-rod geometry also resists rotation and side loads, providing steadier guiding for light-duty tasks without requiring an external guide rail.

This through-rod design leaves the back rod end completely free to trip a switch, carry a mechanical stop, or drive a secondary load. The stainless barrel and rod withstand mild corrosion and washdown environments. It features a 1/8" port, an M10x1.25 male rod thread, and conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for straightforward bracket integration. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; you would need the -S variant for position detection.

When sizing this actuator, expect a safe working load of roughly 124 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa force) or a vertical lift capacity of approximately 10.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. If your application requires less force, stepping down to the MID20 bore yields 131.9 N at 0.5 MPa. If you need more power, the MID32 generates 345.6 N. Keep in mind that the fixed TPU bumper pads only soften the stroke end; they do not function as a lock. If air pressure drops, the piston will drift, so employ an external rod lock or pilot check valve for secure load holding. You can utilize LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion mounts, but the SDB pivot block is not compatible with this double-rod configuration.
