The AirTAC AirTAC MBL63X10CA Mini Cylinder | 63mm Bore 10mm Stroke is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 10mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and a fixed rubber bumper. Its compact riveted body suits push, hold and clamp motion in tight machine spaces.
The AirTAC MBL63X10CA is a compact double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder engineered for tight machine spaces. Delivering a robust 1558 N push force at 0.5 MPa across its 10 mm stroke, it is built for short, heavy-duty movements. The riveted rolling-packed barrel keeps the body light and compact, though it is not designed to be disassembled like a tie-rod cylinder. This specific SKU features a CA pivot (clevis) back cover that swings on a pin, making it ideal for arcing or angular loads. It uses a fixed rubber bumper to soften end-of-stroke impact rather than an adjustable cushion.
Because this model lacks the -S suffix, it cannot accept a CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensor. The piston rod is carbon steel with 20 um hard-chrome plating, paired with a heterogeneous two-way piston seal that retains grease for long service life. Fluid is filtered air, operating within a 0.15-1.0 MPa pressure range and a 30-800 mm/s speed range. The port size is G1/4 and the rod-end thread is M14x1.5.

Uses the 1558 N push force to knock stamped metal parts out of a tight die cavity, where the CA pivot absorbs angular off-center loads during ejection.
Pivots a diverter arm on a packaging line using the short 10 mm stroke, relying on the clevis mount to swing the arm accurately into the flow path.
Lifts small electronics trays between conveyor tiers, using the compact aluminum body to fit within dense machinery frameworks without adding bulk.
To step down in force, the MBL50 bore provides 981 N push at 0.5 MPa; to step up beyond this 63 mm bore's 1558 N capacity, you would move to a larger profile cylinder. Choose the MBLC variant if your application requires adjustable air cushioning for heavier moving masses. Since this is a double-acting cylinder, it does not hold position or load when air pressure is lost or exhausted—the rod drifts, and the rubber bumper is not a lock or brake. For position holding without live pressure, an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required. When replacing, match the 63 mm bore, 10 mm stroke, G1/4 port, PT thread, CA back cover, and no magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 1558 N and the pull force is 1457 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 2181 N. The maximum theoretical force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No. Because this SKU does not have the -S suffix, it lacks a built-in magnet and cannot accept a CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor switch. You would need an MBL63X10SCA to use sensors. It also uses a fixed rubber bumper, not an adjustable cushion.
