The AirTAC Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU25X100S is a genuine double acting + cushion (up mount) standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service. A variable air cushion at both ends lets you tune end-of-stroke deceleration on site.
The MARU25X100S is a 25 mm bore, double-acting mini cylinder from AirTAC's MA series with a 100 mm stroke and an integrated top (U) mounting bracket, so the flange is already on the front cover and no separate foot or flange part is needed. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 343.4 N, with a theoretical peak of 50 kgf.
A riveted stainless-steel round barrel and hard-chrome plated rod stand up to washdown and humid air far better than painted-steel minis, while the variable air cushion at both ends lets you soften the 100 mm stroke when running up to 800 mm/s. The piston magnet is built in as standard, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches simply snap on. In practice, plan on roughly 147 N of real working force at 0.5 MPa - that translates to lifting about 12 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MA-series datasheet. Barrel: stainless-steel tube (round-body, riveted rolling-packed construction); piston rod: carbon steel with 20µm hard-chrome plating; covers: aluminium alloy. Thread options: PT (blank) / G / NPT. Every MA-series cylinder ships with a built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG position sensors.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 245 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.
| MAR | Standard round-body mini cylinder (double-acting, integrated mount, variable cushion). |
|---|---|
| U | Front-cover mount: U = up (top) mounting. |
| 25 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×100 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (standard on MA series). |
MA-family variants: MA / MAC (double acting ±cushion), MSA / MTA (single acting push / pull), MAD / MACD (double rod ±cushion), MAJ / MACJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion), MAR (cushioned with integrated F/U mount). Mounting accessories: FA flange, LB foot, SDB pivot; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G / NPT.
Rows of cartons on a conveyor get squared or pushed off at the end of a 100 mm stroke, with the top mount bolted straight to the machine frame.
Finished parts are kicked clear of a drilling or milling fixture once the cycle ends, cushioned at both ends so the part is not flung.
A light interlock gate or deflector plate on a bottling line is raised, matched to the 245 N push or roughly 12 kg of vertical lift.
Need less force? The 20 mm MAR pushes 157 N at 0.5 MPa; need more, the 32 mm bore reaches 402.2 N. Between them, this 25 mm model covers slides and lifters in the 200-400 N band. Like every plain MAR it drifts if air is lost, so add a rod lock where a position must be held; I and Y rod knuckles still fit the 10 mm rod with its M10x1.25 thread. Ports are 1/8", supply 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed range 30-800 mm/s.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N; at 0.7 MPa, 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 50 kgf. The 10 mm rod carries an M10x1.25 male thread and ports are 1/8".
No. The piston magnet ships as standard on every MAR, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed switches drop straight onto the stainless barrel without a special-order piston.
