The AirTAC Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU25X120S is a genuine double acting + cushion (up mount) standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 120mm 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 MARU25X120S is a 25 mm bore, 120 mm stroke round-body mini cylinder from AirTAC's MA series, double acting with a variable air cushion at each end and its own up/top front bracket rolled into the body. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 245.3 N pushing, and the stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome plated rod (20 um) stands up to damp shops and washdown corners where painted minis start to rust.
Matched to a real part weight: 245.3 N is roughly 25 kgf of raw thrust, so halving for a 2:1 margin means this cylinder lifts about 12 kg vertically at 0.5 MPa. The magnet that ships inside the piston as standard lets CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches clip on for end-of-stroke signalling, and the needle screws on the cushion let you settle the 120 mm travel quietly from the first run.

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.

| 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.

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.
Pushes off-spec bottles sideways off a beverage line conveyor; 245 N at 0.5 MPa is ample for a 0.5 kg PET bottle across 120 mm of travel.
Seats O-rings into automotive fitting grooves on a manual bench press; the cushioned end stops the sting when the seal bottoms out.
Raises bakery oven tray stops of about 10 kg at each rack position, with the top mount carrying the load direction straight into the frame.
This bore size splits the MA range neatly: the 20 mm bore manages 157.0 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to 32 mm buys 402.2 N - choose MARU25X120S when your load sits between roughly 90 and 145 N of working effort over the 120 mm travel. Keep in mind it drifts if air is lost; there is no mechanical lock in a plain cylinder, so add a rod lock if the position must survive a supply drop.
The integrated top bracket bolts the body straight to the machine frame, and I or Y rod knuckles still thread onto the M10x1.25 male rod thread. The 1/8" ports, 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) band and 30-800 mm/s speed window fit standard small-air circuits.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the 25 mm bore pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 343.4 N and 288.5 N. The theoretical ceiling of the bore class is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For sizing, treat about 147 N as the sensible continuous working force - the piston drifts on air loss since no lock is built in.
No. The up/top front bracket is rolled into the cylinder body as part of the MA construction, so a separate flange or foot is not used. The magnet inside is also standard, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG reed or Hall sensors drop straight on, and the 1/8" ports take common fittings right away.
