This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is MBL25X110SCA — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the MBL25X110SCA in place of this model. The MBL replacement upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body and the current CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensor switches (the MAL used CS1-M / DS1-M).
Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X110SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X110SCA is a double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 110mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and a fixed rubber bumper. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the MBL25X110SCA, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X110SCA
The AirTAC MAL25X110SCA is a discontinued double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder with a 25mm bore and 110mm stroke. It delivers 245N of push force and 206N of pull force at 0.5MPa. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the MBL25X110SCA, a drop-in alternative retaining the exact same bore, stroke, force, G1/8 port, and CA pivot mounting.
This SKU includes a built-in magnet (-S) and a CA pivot back cover. The original MAL body uses threaded front and back covers, whereas the modern MBL features a riveted rolling-packed body. Because this unit has the -S magnet, it originally paired with CS1-M or DS1-M switches; upgrading to the MBL requires switching to the current CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor family. The cylinder relies on a fixed rubber bumper, so if your application needs adjustable end-of-stroke cushioning, you must step up to the MBLC variant on the current line.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MAL datasheet (now discontinued). The MBL25X110SCA carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø25mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 245 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
The MBL25X110SCA produces the same force from the same bore — a true drop-in on output. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Where the Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X110SCA Is Used
Diverting Small Packages
Pushes lightweight cardboard cartons on a 110mm stroke at 245N push force, ideal for routing items on a tight conveyor belt.
Pivot-Driven Part Ejector
Uses the CA clevis back cover to swing and eject small molded plastic parts from an injection mold cavity without binding.
Bin Gate Actuation
Extends 110mm to open a small parts dispensing bin gate, relying on the 206N pull force to securely retract the door closed.
Replacing the Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X110SCA with MBL25X110SCA
To replace the MAL25X110SCA, order the MBL25X110SCA. Confirm your 25mm bore, 110mm stroke, G1/8 port, and PT thread form. You must also account for the CA pivot back cover, which swings on a pin to accommodate arcing loads, and remember that your -S magnet will now require CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors instead of the older CS1-M or DS1-M. If 245N of push at 0.5MPa is too much, step down to the 20mm bore (157N); if you need more force, step up to the 32mm bore (402N). Note that a plain bumper does not hold a load when air is lost, so add an external rod lock for vertical safety. Because the stroke is 110mm, the 10mm carbon-steel rod has low side-load tolerance; use the CA pivot to absorb angular stress or add an external guide.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBL25X110SCA (same bore/stroke/force)
- ✓ Same G1/8 port and mounting accessories
- ✓ Sensor: swap CS1-M/DS1-M → CMSG/DMSG/EMSG
- ✓ Need a cushion? use MBLC (adjustable air cushion)
- ✓ Confirm back cover (CA / U) and thread (PT/NPT/G)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.1 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Front/rear covers are threaded — not intended for field disassembly.
- check Use the correct mounting accessory (LB / FA / SDB) and back cover (CA / U / CM).
- check For new builds, specify the MBL25X110SCA instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X110SCA FAQ
Yes, the MAL25X110SCA is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBL25X110SCA, which matches the 25mm bore, 110mm stroke, 245N push force, G1/8 port, and CA pivot mounting. You simply order the MBL25X110SCA to upgrade.
At 0.5MPa, the 25mm bore provides 245N push and 206N pull force. At 0.7MPa, push is 343N, with a theoretical maximum of 50kgf at 1.0MPa. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it uses CS1-M or DS1-M switches on the MAL, but the MBL replacement requires CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
