The AirTAC Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC25X200SU is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 200mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and a fixed rubber bumper. Its compact riveted body suits push, hold and clamp motion in tight machine spaces.
The AirTAC MBLC25X200SU is a double-acting, 25mm bore mini cylinder with a 200mm stroke, delivering 245 N push and 206 N pull force at 0.5 MPa. It features a screw-adjustable pneumatic air cushion at both stroke ends to smoothly decelerate the piston, cutting impact and vibration on faster moves where a fixed rubber bumper would fail. This compact actuator uses a riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel for tight spaces rather than a bulky rebuildable tie-rod body.
The SKU includes an -S built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor switches to detect rod position, and a U flat-end rigid back cover. A heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal pairs with the 20 µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel Ø10 mm rod to maintain lubrication and resist wear across long cycles. The cushion needle is tuned to match your load and speed, but it only decelerates near the ends—it is not a load lock or brake.

Drives a 200mm shuttle stroke on a PCB handling line, using the adjustable cushion to stop the 245 N push force smoothly without jarring delicate populated boards.
Folds cardboard flaps on a compact packaging machine, where the -S magnet confirms the fully extended position via a DMSG sensor before the sealing head lowers.
Reroutes small product totes on a conveyor at speed, relying on the riveted aluminum body to fit the tight transfer gap while absorbing the 206 N pull load.
If you need less force, the 20mm bore version offers 157 N push at 0.5 MPa; if your load is heavier, the 32mm bore provides 402 N push. Choose this MBLC over the base MBL when your application runs at high speed or cycles frequently, requiring tunable end-of-stroke deceleration rather than a fixed rubber bumper. At 200mm of stroke, the small Ø10 mm rod has low side-load tolerance, so use an external guide, a pivot mount, or the MBLD double-rod type to prevent rod bending. This cylinder has a G1/8 port, M10x1.25 rod thread, and PT threaded port. A plain MBLC does not hold position if air is lost—add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check for that.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 25mm bore cylinder provides 245 N push and 206 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, it delivers 343 N push. The maximum theoretical force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
You tune the cushion needle at each end to match your load and speed. It traps exhaust air to decelerate the piston smoothly near the stroke ends, protecting the U flat-end cover from impact. It only decelerates; it is not a brake or load lock.
