The AirTAC Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC63X175SCA 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 MBLC63X175SCA is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder with a 63 mm bore and 175 mm stroke, delivering 1558 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. It features a screw-adjustable pneumatic air cushion at both ends to smoothly decelerate the piston near stroke limits. This protects the end covers from impact on fast or heavy moves, unlike the fixed rubber bumper found on the base MBL series.
This SKU includes a CA pivot/clevis back cover that swings on a pin to accommodate arcing angular loads. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensor switches for rod position detection. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel keeps the body compact, while the Ø16 carbon-steel rod features 20 µm hard-chrome plating paired with a heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal.

Related variants: MBLC (adjustable cushion), MBLD (double rod), MBLJ (adjustable stroke), MSBL/MTBL (single acting).
Drives heavy mold ejection plates over 175 mm with 1558 N push force, using the tunable air cushion to prevent slamming at high cycling speeds.
Actuates a heavy diverter on a packaging conveyor, where the CA clevis allows the rod to swing naturally with the arc of the load.
Pushes stacked wood or composite boards laterally, relying on the cushioned ends to absorb the mass of the load at the end of each 175 mm stroke.
If 1558 N at 0.5 MPa is excessive, step down to the 50 mm bore providing 981 N push force. For higher energy demands, note this 63 mm bore is the largest available, yielding 318 kgf maximum theoretical force at 1.0 MPa. Choose this MBLC cushioned version over the base MBL when cycling high masses at fast speeds. The adjustable cushion only decelerates near the ends; it is not a load lock. A plain cylinder will drift if air is lost, so add an external rod lock for position holding. Replacement match: 63 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, G1/4 port, PT thread, CA back cover, -S magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 1558 N and the pull force is 1457 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 2181 N and pull is 2040 N. The maximum theoretical force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The cushion is a screw-tunable needle at both ends that decelerates the piston smoothly near stroke limits; it is not a fixed bumper or a brake. The -S built-in magnet works with AirTAC CMSG (reed), DMSG, and EMSG (electronic) sensor switches to detect position.
