The AirTAC Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC63X150CA is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 150mm 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 MBLC63X150CA is a double-acting, aluminum-barrel mini cylinder engineered for demanding actuation. It generates 1558 N of push force and 1457 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for moving substantial masses through a 150 mm stroke. Unlike fixed-bumper designs, this model features a screw-adjustable pneumatic air cushion at both ends. You tune the needle valve to decelerate the piston smoothly near each stroke end, absorbing kinetic energy to protect the end covers on fast or high-frequency cycles.
This SKU includes a CA pivot (clevis) back cover that swings on a pin to accommodate arcing or angular loads, preventing rod binding. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel keeps the body compact and lightweight for tight spaces. Inside, a heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal works alongside a 20 µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel Ø16 rod for durable, low-friction operation. Because this specific configuration lacks the -S suffix for a built-in magnet, it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors.

Provides the 1558 N push force needed to pull heavy plastic injection molded parts from deep molds, using the adjustable cushion to stop the 150 mm extraction stroke smoothly without shocking the mold face.
Actuates a heavy pivoting diverter arm on a packaging conveyor. The CA clevis back cover accommodates the angular swing of the arm while the air cushion softens the rapid redirection of loaded pallets.
Pushes filled beverage crates between adjacent roller conveyors, utilizing the 318 kgf maximum theoretical force capability to overcome line friction and using the tunable end-cushioning to prevent crate tipping at high speeds.
At 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore provides 1558 N push and 1457 N pull force. If your application requires less force, stepping down to the 50 mm bore yields 981 N push and 881 N pull. If you need more power, 63 mm is the largest available bore in this mini-cylinder family. Choose this MBLC variant over the base MBL when operating speeds are high or the moved mass is heavy enough that a fixed rubber bumper cannot adequately absorb the impact.
For replacement matching, confirm the 63 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, G1/4 port, PT tapered thread, CA pivot back cover, and the absence of a magnet. Note that a plain pneumatic cylinder does not hold position when air is lost or the valve centers; the rod will drift. The adjustable cushion only decelerates motion near the ends and is not a locking brake.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 1558 N and the pull force is 1457 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 2181 N. The maximum theoretical force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
The cushion is a screw-tunable needle valve at both ends that traps exhaust air to decelerate the piston near the stroke ends, reducing impact and vibration; it is not a load lock or brake. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S suffix, it has no built-in magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors.
