This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is MBL25X750-S-CM — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the MBL25X750-S-CM 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 MAL25X750-S-CM
The AirTAC Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X750-S-CM is a double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 750mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and a fixed rubber bumper. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the MBL25X750-S-CM, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X750-S-CM
The AirTAC MAL25X750-S-CM is a discontinued double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder with a 25mm bore and a 750mm stroke. Because the 750mm length exceeds the 500mm standard maximum, this unit was a non-standard, made-to-order configuration. It delivers 245N of push force and 206N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBL25X750-S-CM, which matches the bore, stroke, force, G1/8 port, and mounting hardware perfectly.
This specific SKU includes a -S magnet and a CM round-end back cover. The legacy MAL magnet is compatible with the older CS1-M and DS1-M reed switches, while the modern MBL replacement transitions to the current CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor families. Structurally, the original MAL features threaded front and back covers, whereas the upgraded MBL utilizes a riveted rolling-packed body. Both designs share a heterogeneous two-way seal that retains grease, paired with a self-lubricating front-cover bearing guide and a carbon-steel rod plated with 20 um of hard chrome.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MAL datasheet (now discontinued). The MBL25X750-S-CM 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 MBL25X750-S-CM 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 MAL25X750-S-CM Is Used
Textile Loom Guiding
Drives a yarn traversing guide across a 750mm stroke at high speed, relying on the 245N push force and self-lubricating bearing to handle continuous textile machinery duty cycles.
Packaging Pusher
Pushes filled cartons from a narrow roller lane to a secondary boxing station, using the CM round-end cover to pivot slightly and accommodate misaligned carton flow.
Warehouse Diversion
Actuates a routing flap on a low-profile sortation conveyor, where the lightweight aluminum body and 50 kgf maximum force reliably redirect light poly-bagged goods.
Replacing the Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X750-S-CM with MBL25X750-S-CM
To replace the MAL25X750-S-CM, order the MBL25X750-S-CM. Verify your porting (PT standard thread form), the CM round-end back cover for your pivot mounting, and plan for the sensor family change from CS1-M/DS1-M to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG. If your application needs an adjustable air cushion rather than the fixed rubber bumper found on the MAL, specify the MBLC variant on the current line. Be aware that a plain bumper does not lock the rod; if air is lost, the load drifts, requiring an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
At 0.5 MPa, this 25mm bore provides 245N push and 206N pull force. If you need less force, stepping down to the 20mm bore yields 157N push and 132N pull. If you need more force, stepping up to the 32mm bore provides 402N push and 346N pull. Because the 750mm stroke is exceptionally long for a 10mm rod, side-load tolerance is very low. You must use an external guide rail, a CM round-end pivot to absorb arcing loads, or consider a double-rod MBLD to prevent rod bending.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBL25X750-S-CM (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 MBL25X750-S-CM instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X750-S-CM FAQ
Yes, the MAL25X750-S-CM is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBL25X750-S-CM, offering the same 25mm bore, 750mm stroke, G1/8 port, and CM round-end mounting. The MBL uses a riveted body instead of threaded covers, and the -S magnet now requires CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches instead of the older CS1-M or DS1-M sensors.
The 25mm bore uses a G1/8 port and a 10mm rod with an M10x1.25 rod-end thread. At 0.5 MPa it provides 245N push and 206N pull force. At 0.7 MPa the push force is 343N, and the maximum theoretical force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
