About the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC50X150SU
The AirTAC MBLC50X150SU is a double-acting, compact aluminum mini cylinder featuring a 50mm bore and 150mm stroke. It generates 981 N of push force and 881 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for moving heavier masses through 150mm of travel. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel keeps the body light and compact for tight machine layouts, while the 20 um hard-chrome plating on the carbon-steel rod defends against wear.
This variant includes a built-in magnet (S) for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor switches, and a U flat-end back cover for rigid rear mounting. Unlike the base MBL, the MBLC uses a screw-adjustable pneumatic air cushion at both ends to smoothly decelerate the piston near stroke extremes, absorbing shock on fast cycles without locking the load.

Where the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC50X150SU Is Used
Injection Mold Ejection
Provides 981 N of push at 0.5 MPa to eject plastic parts from 150mm deep mold cavities, using the adjustable cushion to prevent harsh stripping impacts.
Pallet Diverting
Pushes heavy loaded pallets sideways off a conveyor line, relying on the 150mm stroke and tunable end-cushioning to stop the mass smoothly without shock.
Carton Flap Folding
Actuates heavy cardboard flap folders on continuous packaging lines, where the cushioned ends absorb the repetitive high-frequency impacts of double-acting strokes.
Is the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC50X150SU the Right Cylinder?
If you need less force, the 40mm bore provides 628 N push at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the 63mm bore yields 1558 N. Choose this MBLC cushioned version over the fixed-bumper MBL when cycling heavier masses at high frequency and the standard rubber bumper cannot absorb the impact. To replace this unit exactly, match the 50mm bore, 150mm stroke, G1/4 port, M14x1.5 rod thread, PT port thread, U flat-end cover, and the built-in magnet. Note that the air cushion only decelerates near the ends; it will not hold position if air pressure is lost.
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 MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC50X150SU FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 981 N push and 881 N pull. At 0.7 MPa, it provides 1374 N push. The maximum theoretical force is 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The screw-tunable needle restricts exhaust flow near stroke ends to decelerate the piston, protecting end covers on fast moves; it is not a load lock. The built-in magnet works with CMSG reed switches, plus DMSG and EMSG electronic sensors.
