This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is MBLD25X110 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the MBLD25X110 in place of this model. The MBLD replacement upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (the MAL used CS1-M / DS1-M).
Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD25X110
The AirTAC Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD25X110 is a double-acting, double-rod aluminum mini cylinder: a rod exits both ends of the Ø25mm bore, so push and pull force are equal. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the MBLD25X110, matching bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD25X110
The AirTAC MALD25X110 is a discontinued double-acting, double-rod mini cylinder. Because a rod exits both ends, the annulus area is identical on each side, delivering an equal 206 N of push and pull force at 0.5 MPa. The direct drop-in replacement is the MBLD25X110, matching the 25 mm bore, 110 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and mounting.
This SKU has no magnet and cannot accept a position sensor. The original MALD used threaded covers, while the MBLD replacement features a riveted rolling-packed body. A fixed rubber bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact, and the twin 10 mm hard-chrome rods resist rotation to provide stable guidance for attached tooling.
Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD25X110 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD25X110 |
|---|---|
| Series | MALD double-rod mini cylinder (discontinued) |
| Replacement | MBLD25X110 |
| Bore size | Ø25 mm |
| Stroke | 110 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, double rod |
| Port size | G1/8 |
| Rod thread | M10×1.25 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.1 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Fixed rubber bumper |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 300 mm |
Double-rod types have no back-cover code and no SDB pivot; mount on the body, LB foot or FA flange. The MBLD25X110 carries the same ratings.
Output Force — Equal Both Ways (Ø25mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 206 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 289 N | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 42 kgf | |
A rod exits both ends, so the effective area — and force — is equal in both directions. The MBLD25X110 matches these values.

Where the Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD25X110 Is Used
PCB Edge Deburring
Drives a dual-sided deburring blade on a printed circuit board finishing line. The twin rods prevent rotational yaw, while the equal 206 N force ensures consistent cutting pressure on both the forward and return passes.
Textile Loom Guide
Shifts a yarn tensioning cam on an automated weaving machine. The symmetrical 289 N force at 0.7 MPa keeps thread tension perfectly balanced during extend and retract, preventing snags across the 110 mm travel.
Carton Flap Folder
Synchronizes a folding arm on a packaging conveyor. The rear rod acts as a mechanical flag to trip an external limit switch, operating reliably without needing an internal cylinder sensor.
Replacing the Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD25X110 with MBLD25X110
To replace this MALD25X110, specify the MBLD25X110. Confirm the 25 mm bore, 110 mm stroke, G1/8 PT port, and M10x1.25 rod-end thread. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot support a sensor; if sensing is needed, switch to an MBLD25X110S and upgrade from the old CS1-M/DS1-M to the CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. Mount on the body, FA flange, or LB foot—there is no back cover or SDB option.
Size on the equal 206 N force at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force, step down to the 20 mm bore (132 N each way). If you need more, step up to the 32 mm bore (346 N each way). At 110 mm stroke, keep the load centered on the twin rods to minimize side-load and prevent premature seal wear.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLD25X110 (same bore/stroke/force)
- ✓ Force equal both ways (206 N at 0.5 MPa)
- ✓ Twin rods for anti-rotation / rear flag
- ✓ No back cover / SDB — plan a body or FA/LB mount
- ✓ Sensor: swap CS1-M/DS1-M → CMSG/DMSG/EMSG
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.1 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Protect both rod ends from side load on long strokes.
- check No back-cover / SDB on double-rod — use body / FA / LB.
- check Front/rear covers are threaded — not for field disassembly.
- check For new builds, specify the MBLD25X110 instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD25X110 FAQ
Yes, the MALD25X110 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBLD25X110. It matches the 25 mm bore, 110 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and equal force ratings. The primary upgrade is the body construction: the MALD used threaded covers, while the MBLD uses a riveted rolling-packed body.
The push and pull forces are equal because both sides have the same annulus area. It generates 206 N each way at 0.5 MPa, 289 N each way at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 42 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a fixed rubber bumper to soften end impacts, but it is not a locking cylinder and the rod will drift on air loss.
