The AirTAC Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC63X30SCA is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 30mm 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 MBLC63X30SCA is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder engineered for high-force, short-stroke automation. It delivers a robust 1558 N push and 1457 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it ideal for heavy pressing or clamping tasks within confined spaces. A built-in magnet (-S) enables position detection via CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor switches. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel keeps the body light and compact, avoiding the bulk of traditional tie-rod builds.
This SKU features a CA pivot (clevis) back cover that swings on a pin to safely accommodate arcing or angular loads. Unlike the base MBL which relies on a fixed rubber bumper, this MBLC variant incorporates a screw-tunable pneumatic air cushion at both ends. You adjust the needle to smoothly decelerate the heavy 63 mm piston near the 30 mm stroke ends, minimizing impact shock and protecting the end covers on rapid cycles.

Uses the 1558 N push force to knock heavy stamped sheet metal parts out of a die in a short 30 mm stroke, relying on the cushion to absorb the sudden mass impact.
Leverages the CA pivot back cover to swing a heavy diverter gate on a packaging conveyor, handling angular linkage loads without binding.
Applies precise downward pressure on an in-circuit test fixture, using the -S magnet with a DMSG solid-state sensor to confirm the press is fully home.
Choose this 63 mm bore for heavy-duty compact tasks requiring 1558 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If your application is lighter, stepping down to the 50 mm bore yields 981 N of push force, saving space and air consumption. If you need even more power, 63 mm is the largest standard MBL/MBLC size available, so for higher loads you must switch to a larger ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The short 30 mm stroke keeps side-load bending leverage minimal, but the CA pivot is specifically beneficial if your linkage geometry creates angular motion.
Select the MBLC over the base MBL when operating at high speeds or moving heavy masses where a fixed rubber bumper would deteriorate rapidly from impact. Remember that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel; it is not a mechanical lock. If you need to hold position vertically without constant air pressure, you must add an external pilot-operated check valve or a dedicated rod lock. Replacement parts require matching the 63 mm bore, 30 mm stroke, G1/4 port, PT thread, CA pivot, and -S magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 1558 N push and 1457 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 2181 N push, with a theoretical maximum of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The port size is G1/4, the rod is Ø16 mm, and the rod-end thread is M14x1.5.
The screw-tunable pneumatic cushion at both ends allows you to dial in the deceleration rate of the heavy 63 mm piston. This prevents the end covers from cracking under high kinetic energy during fast cycles, a failure mode common to fixed rubber bumpers. It decelerates the load smoothly but does not lock the rod in place.
