This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is MBL25X750CM — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the MBL25X750CM 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 MAL25X750CM
The AirTAC Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X750CM 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 MBL25X750CM, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X750CM
The AirTAC MAL25X750CM is a discontinued double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder with a 25mm bore and a 750mm stroke. Because 750mm exceeds the 500mm standard limit, this is a made-to-order non-standard stroke. It delivers 245N of push force and 206N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBL25X750CM, which matches the bore, stroke, force, G1/8 port, and CM round-end mounting.
This legacy MAL unit features threaded front and back covers, whereas the modern MBL replacement utilizes a riveted rolling-packed body for enhanced structural integrity. Lacking the -S magnet option, this specific SKU cannot support a position sensor. Furthermore, its 10mm carbon-steel rod with 20um hard chrome plating relies on a heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining seal, but the fixed rubber bumper only softens end-of-stroke impacts without locking the load.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MAL datasheet (now discontinued). The MBL25X750CM 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 MBL25X750CM 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 MAL25X750CM Is Used
Textile Loom Guide
Drives a 750mm yarn guide carriage in a textile loom, utilizing the 245N push force to shift heavy thread bundles across the weaving width.
Pallet Transfer Arm
Actuates a 750mm swing arm to reposition pallets between parallel conveyor lines, where the CM round-end pivot absorbs lateral arc movement.
Warehouse Pusher
Ejects cardboard cartons from a multi-level storage magazine, relying on the 206N pull force to retract the long rod clear of the inventory.
Replacing the Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X750CM with MBL25X750CM
To replace the MAL25X750CM, order the MBL25X750CM. Verify your 25mm bore, 750mm stroke, G1/8 port, PT thread, and CM round-end back cover. If you need to step down to reduce mass, the 20mm bore neighbor provides 157N push at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires more force, stepping up to the 32mm bore yields 402N push at 0.5 MPa. Since this SKU lacks an -S magnet, no sensor can be attached; if you need position detection on the new MBL, add the -S suffix and upgrade to the current CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switch families.
At 750mm of travel, the 10mm rod is highly susceptible to bending under side-loads. You must use an external guide rail to prevent premature seal wear and rod damage. Additionally, the fixed rubber bumper is not an adjustable air cushion; if your load requires end-of-stroke deceleration, specify the MBLC variant on the current line. Remember that a plain MAL/MBL does not hold its position when air pressure is lost, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for fail-safe load holding.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBL25X750CM (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 MBL25X750CM instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MAL25 Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MAL25X750CM FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC MAL25X750CM is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBL25X750CM, offering the same 25mm bore, 750mm stroke, CM round-end, G1/8 port, and 50 kgf maximum force.
The 25mm bore provides 245N push and 206N pull at 0.5 MPa, 343N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical force of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accommodate a position sensor.
