About the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL25X300-CA
The AirTAC MBL25X300-CA is a compact double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder engineered for tight machine spaces. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it generates 245 N of push force and 206 N of pull force over a 300 mm stroke. This genuine AirTAC unit features a CA pivot clevis back cover, allowing the body to swing on a pin to accommodate arcing or angular loads during movement.
Unlike tie-rod bodies, this cylinder utilizes a riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel where the covers are crimped to the tube, making it exceptionally light but not designed for field disassembly. The carbon steel piston rod features a 20 um hard-chrome plating for wear resistance, paired with a heterogeneous two-way piston seal that retains grease for a long service life. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S suffix, it cannot accept a CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensor.

Where the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL25X300-CA Is Used
Pouch Sorting Diverter
Swings a lightweight sorting gate on a packaging line, using the CA pivot bracket to absorb angular momentum while pushing 245 N to redirect pouches.
Textile Yarn Guide
Traverses a yarn guide carriage across a 300 mm span in compact looming machinery where the riveted aluminum barrel saves critical space.
Carton Flap Folder
Extends to fold minor carton flaps on a compact sealing station, relying on the fixed rubber bumper to prevent hard impact at the end of the 300 mm travel.
Is the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL25X300-CA the Right Cylinder?
This 25 mm bore provides 245 N of push force at 0.5 MPa; if you need less force, step down to the 20 mm bore (157 N push), or move up to the 32 mm bore (402 N push) for heavier loads. The base MBL uses a fixed rubber bumper to soften end-of-stroke impact rather than an adjustable cushion (choose the MBLC variant for adjustable air cushioning). Note that a plain MBL does not hold its position if air pressure is lost; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for fail-safe load holding.
With a 300 mm stroke on a Ø10 mm rod, the cylinder has low side-load tolerance and the unsupported rod is susceptible to bending under lateral forces. The CA pivot back cover on this SKU is ideal for managing this, but you should also use an external guide or consider the MBLD double-rod type for rigid anti-rotation. Replacement match: 25 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, G1/8 port, PT thread, CA pivot back cover, no magnet.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB / FA / SDB) and back cover (CA pivot / U flat-end).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL25X300-CA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 245 N and the pull force is 206 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 343 N. The maximum theoretical force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operational speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
No, this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet suffix, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor switches. Additionally, the base MBL uses a fixed rubber bumper; for adjustable air cushioning to handle heavier moving masses at higher speeds, you must upgrade to the MBLC variant.
