About the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC50X60U
The AirTAC MBLC50X60U is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder engineered for compact spaces requiring substantial force, delivering 981 N of push at 0.5 MPa across its 60 mm stroke. Unlike the base MBL, this variant features a screw-adjustable pneumatic cushion at both ends. You tune the needle to decelerate the piston smoothly near stroke limits, cutting end-cover impact and vibration on heavier loads without acting as a holding brake.
This SKU utilizes a G1/4 port and a Ø16 hard-chrome carbon-steel rod with an M14x1.5 end thread. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel keeps the body light and compact, while the heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal ensures lasting lubrication. The U flat-end back cover provides rigid rear mounting. Note that this specific model lacks a built-in magnet, so it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors.

Where the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC50X60U Is Used
Stator Winding Press
Drives a 60 mm downstroke to seat copper stator coils into motor housings, using the adjustable cushion to prevent harsh impact when compacting dense windings.
Pallet Diverter Arm
Actuates a routing flap on a packaging line, relying on the 981 N push force to swing heavy loaded pallets smoothly onto a secondary track.
Battery Cell Tray Gating
Controls a heavy stop gate on a battery assembly conveyor, where the tunable air cushion silently absorbs the kinetic energy of fast repetitive cycles.
Is the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC50X60U the Right Cylinder?
Select this 50 mm bore when your application requires roughly 981 N of push force at 0.5 MPa within a tight footprint. If you need less force, step down to the 40 mm bore (628 N push); if you need more, step up to the 63 mm bore (1558 N push). Choose this MBLC over the fixed-bumper MBL when cycling speeds are high or the moved mass is heavy enough to warrant tunable end-of-stroke deceleration.
Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, you cannot mount reed or electronic sensors directly; confirm if external limit switches are needed for your sequence. For exact replacement matching, specify the 50 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, PT thread, U flat-end back cover, and no magnet. The 60 mm stroke is short enough that rod bending is minimal, but always ensure the load is axially aligned to protect the 16 mm rod.
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 MBLC50X60U FAQ
This 50 mm bore cylinder uses a G1/4 port and delivers a push force of 981 N and a pull force of 881 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 1374 N. The maximum theoretical force is 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU lacks the built-in -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor switches. You would need the MBLC50X60SU version for reed or electronic solid-state position detection.
