The AirTAC Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC63X10SCA 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 MBLC63X10SCA is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder engineered with a screw-adjustable pneumatic cushion at both ends. Generating 1558 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore unit is tailored for abrupt 10 mm strokes where heavy mass must be controlled without slamming the end covers. The integrated magnet enables position detection, while the CA clevis back cover accommodates arcing loads.
Unlike fixed-bumper designs, the needle-bleed cushioning lets you tune end-of-stroke deceleration to match high kinetic energy, absorbing impact rather than locking the load. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel keeps the body light and spatially efficient, while the heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal ensures lasting lubrication around the Ø16 hard-chrome carbon-steel rod.

Handles a 10 mm rapid ejection stroke in a metal stamping press, using the 1558 N push force to knock out heavy blanks while the cushion prevents harsh recoil.
Drives a short 10 mm angular diverting motion on a packaging conveyor, where the CA clevis mount accommodates the arcing load path and the cushion softens the abrupt stop.
Actuates a high-force 10 mm clamping sequence in PCB testing fixtures, relying on the DMSG electronic sensor to confirm clamp engagement instantly.
For short 10 mm moves, stepping down to the 50 mm bore yields 981 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up is not possible as 63 mm is the largest standard MBL size. Choose this MBLC variant over the base MBL when your application cycles rapidly with a heavy payload, as the tunable air cushion prevents cover damage that a fixed rubber bumper cannot absorb.
Because the 63 mm bore uses a G1/4 port and PT tapered thread, ensure your fittings match this exact configuration. The CA pivot back cover swings on a pin to accommodate angular trajectories, which is critical for short-arc mechanisms. Note that the adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke ends; it does not hold position if air pressure drops, so an external rod lock is required for fail-safe holding.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore cylinder provides 1558 N of push force and 1457 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push increases to 2181 N. The maximum theoretical force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The adjustable air cushion uses a screw needle to bleed trapped air, decelerating the piston smoothly at the stroke ends to protect the end covers on heavy 10 mm impacts. The built-in -S magnet works with AirTAC CMSG reed switches or DMSG/EMSG electronic sensors for precise position detection.
