The AirTAC Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC63X175CA is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 175mm 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 MBLC63X175CA is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder engineered for heavy-duty compact automation. It delivers 1558 N of push force and 1457 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a 63 mm bore and a 175 mm stroke. A standout feature is the screw-adjustable pneumatic cushion at both ends, which decelerates the piston smoothly near stroke completion to absorb kinetic energy, drastically reducing end-cover impact and vibration during high-speed operations.
This specific configuration uses a CA pivot clevis back cover that swings on a pin to accommodate arcing angular loads, making it superior to rigid flat-end mounts for dynamic linkages. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel keeps the body lightweight yet robust, while the 20 µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod resists wear. Note that this SKU lacks a built-in magnet, so it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG electronic position sensing.

Uses the 1558 N push force at 0.5 MPa to knock stamped metal blanks out of progressive dies, relying on the adjustable cushion to brake the 16 mm rod smoothly at 175 mm.
Leverages the CA pivot back cover to swing a diverter mechanism across a packaging line, handling heavy pallets without binding the rod bearings.
Accelerates goods carriers into storage channels, using the tunable end cushions to prevent harsh impacts that could shift unbalanced loads at 800 mm/s.
As the largest standard bore in the MBL/MBLC series, this 63 mm model provides maximum thrust with no larger sibling available; to step down, the 50 mm bore offers 981 N push at 0.5 MPa. Choose this MBLC variant over the base fixed-bumper MBL when driving heavier masses or cycling at high frequencies where a rubber bumper would degrade. Remember that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the rod near the ends and does not lock position—if air is lost, the rod will drift, requiring an external pilot-operated check valve for holding. Replacement parts require matching the 63 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, G1/4 port, PT thread, and CA pivot cover.
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.
A screw-tunable needle at each end controls the exhaust flow to trap a pocket of air, decelerating the piston smoothly before it hits the end cover. You tune it to match the load and speed, which protects the cylinder on fast, heavy moves far better than a fixed rubber bumper.
