The AirTAC AirTAC MBL63X10U 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 MBL63X10U is a compact double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder engineered to deliver substantial thrust in extremely tight machine envelopes. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it provides 1558 N of push force and 1457 N of pull force, making this 10 mm stroke variant ideal for short, high-power clamping or ejecting sequences. The riveted rolling-packed barrel permanently crimps the front and rear covers to the tube, yielding a lightweight body that is not designed to be disassembled like a traditional tie-rod cylinder.
This specific SKU features a rigid U flat-end back cover for fixed mounting and a Ø16 mm carbon-steel piston rod with 20 µm hard-chrome plating for superior wear and corrosion resistance. Because this model lacks the -S suffix, it cannot accommodate a CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensor. The internal heterogeneous two-way piston seal effectively retains grease for long service life, while the fixed rubber bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impacts.

Provides the 1558 N push force needed to eject dense plastic parts from mold cavities within a highly constrained 10 mm stroke envelope.
Acts as a compact diverter on packaging lines, using its high 1457 N pull force to re-route heavy product cartons rapidly without occupying excessive frame space.
Drives short-stroke press fitting of bearings or pins into metal housings where a rigid U flat-end mount ensures precise alignment under heavy load.
Selecting the MBL63X10U is appropriate when a brief 10 mm stroke and massive 1558 N push force at 0.5 MPa are required in a minimal footprint. If you need to step down, the 50 mm bore neighbor offers 981 N of push force; stepping up is not an option as 63 mm is the largest MBL bore. The fixed rubber bumper softens impact but does not lock the rod—this cylinder will drift and drop if air pressure is lost, so an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required to hold suspended loads. For exact replacement matching, use a 63 mm bore, 10 mm stroke, G1/4 port, PT thread, U flat-end back cover, and no magnet.
Quick checklist
This 63 mm bore cylinder delivers a push force of 1558 N and a pull force of 1457 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 2181 N, with a theoretical maximum of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a G1/4 port and operates at speeds between 30-800 mm/s.
The base MBL63X10U uses a fixed rubber bumper to soften end-of-stroke impact, not an adjustable air cushion (which requires the MBLC variant). Additionally, because this SKU lacks the -S magnet suffix, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG electronic or reed position sensors.
