The AirTAC Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC63X350CA is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 350mm 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 MBLC63X350CA is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder engineered for substantial linear force, delivering 1558 N of push and 1457 N of pull at 0.5 MPa. Its 350 mm stroke suits extended-travel material routing or large gate actuation. Unlike the base MBL series which relies on a fixed rubber bumper, this MBLC variant features a screw-adjustable pneumatic air cushion at both ends. Tuning the cushion needle lets you smoothly decelerate the heavy 63 mm piston near the stroke limits, effectively damping end-cover impact without acting as a mechanical lock.
This configuration utilizes a CA pivot back cover that swings on a pin to accommodate arcing loads, paired with a robust Ø16 mm carbon-steel rod plated with 20 µm hard chrome to resist scoring. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel keeps the assembly light and compact for its size class. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S suffix, it is built without a magnet and cannot host a CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensor.

Drives heavy swinging diverter gates on packaging lines, using the 350 mm stroke and CA pivot to re-route loaded pallets smoothly without end-cap slamming.
Actuates long guide tubes for bar stock pushers where the 1558 N force at 0.5 MPa ensures consistent stock delivery into the spindle over extended distances.
Opens and closes tall safety access panels on automated storage systems, relying on the tunable air cushion to decelerate the heavy door mass safely at travel limits.
Selecting the MBLC63X350CA is optimal when your application requires the maximum thrust available in this frame size, pushing 318 kgf theoretically at 1.0 MPa. If you need less force, stepping down to the 50 mm bore drops the 0.5 MPa push to 981 N, while the 63 mm bore is the largest available in this series with no larger neighbor. The PT tapered port threads mate directly with standard pneumatic fittings.
At a 350 mm stroke, the 16 mm rod is highly susceptible to side-loading and bending forces. The CA clevis back cover on this unit helps mitigate this by allowing the cylinder to pivot during the stroke, but you should still employ an external guide rail or consider a double-rod MBLCD type to prevent premature seal wear. Remember that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the ends; it will not hold the load in place if air pressure is lost or the valve centers.
Quick checklist
This 63 mm bore cylinder uses a G1/4 port and a Ø16 mm rod with an M14x1.5 thread. At 0.5 MPa it provides 1558 N push and 1457 N pull. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 2181 N. The maximum theoretical force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU lacks the -S suffix, meaning it is manufactured without a built-in magnet. You must select an MBLC63X350CAS model if you need to mount CMSG reed or DMSG/EMSG electronic sensor switches for rod position detection.
