The AirTAC Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC25X30CA is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 30mm 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 MBLC25X30CA is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder with a 25mm bore and 30mm stroke. It delivers 245N push and 206N pull at 0.5MPa. The CA back cover provides a pivot clevis that swings on a pin, making it ideal for arcing or angular loads. A compact, light riveted rolling-packed barrel fits tight spaces.
This model features a screw-adjustable air cushion at both ends, decelerating the piston smoothly near stroke ends to cut impact and vibration on faster moves. It has a Ø10mm hard-chrome carbon-steel rod and a two-way grease-retaining piston seal. Without an -S suffix, this SKU cannot take a position sensor.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Swings a 30mm stroke gate on packaging lines using the CA clevis, absorbing end-impact with the air cushion for high-speed product sorting.
Pivots a yarn guide into position; the 245N force handles the leveraged load while the cushion prevents snapping the thread at stroke ends.
Clamps tubular frames in a robotic weld cell; the clevis accommodates angular misalignment and the cushion softens the 30mm clamping snap.
At 0.5MPa, this 25mm bore yields 245N push. If you need less force, step down to the 20mm bore (157N push); if your load is heavier, step up to the 32mm bore (402N push). Choose this MBLC over the base MBL when your application cycles quickly and the fixed rubber bumper is insufficient. The adjustable cushion only decelerates near the ends; it is not a lock, so an external rod lock is needed to hold position without live air. Replacement match: 25mm bore, 30mm stroke, G1/8 port, PT thread, CA pivot cover, no magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5MPa, it provides 245N push and 206N pull. At 0.7MPa, push is 343N and pull is 289N. The maximum theoretical force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No. This specific SKU lacks the -S suffix, meaning it has no built-in magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor switches. You would need the MBLC25X30SCA variant for reed or electronic solid-state position detection.
