The AirTAC Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC63X450SU is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 450mm 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 MBLC63X450SU is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a 63 mm bore and 450 mm stroke. It delivers a robust 1558 N push force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing air pressure for both extension and retraction. This model incorporates a built-in magnet (-S) for compatibility with AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensor switches to track rod position, and uses a rigid U flat-end back cover.
Unlike the base MBL which relies on a fixed rubber bumper, this MBLC variant features a screw-adjustable pneumatic air cushion at both ends. This mechanism allows you to tune the end-of-stroke deceleration to match heavy fast-moving loads, significantly reducing impact shock on the end covers. The body utilizes a riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel for a compact footprint, while the Ø16 carbon-steel rod features 20 µm hard-chrome plating paired with a heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal.

Drives heavy pallets off a roller conveyor using its 1558 N push force at 0.5 MPa, relying on the adjustable cushion to halt the 450 mm stroke without slamming the end cover.
Ejects large molded plastic parts from a press, using the -S magnet and DMSG electronic sensor to verify full ejection before the mold closes.
Actuates a heavy diverter arm in a high-speed logistics hub, where the tunable air cushion absorbs the kinetic energy of the long-stroke swing.
At 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore generates 1558 N push and 1457 N pull. If your application requires less force, stepping down to the 50 mm bore yields 981 N push, whereas moving up is not possible as 63 mm is the largest available size in this series. Choose the MBLC over the standard MBL when your cycle speeds or moving masses are high enough that a fixed rubber bumper would wear out or cause damaging impact vibration.
The 450 mm stroke is substantial for a Ø16 rod, making it highly susceptible to side-load and rod bending under offset loads. To manage this, implement an external linear guide, use a pivot mounting accessory like an SDB bracket, or switch to an MBLD double-rod cylinder. Note that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke ends; it is not a brake and will not hold the load if air supply is lost or the valve centers.
Quick checklist
The MBLC63X450SU provides 1558 N push and 1457 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2181 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical output of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a G1/4 port, a Ø16 mm rod, and an M14x1.5 rod-end thread.
A screw needle at each end of the cylinder traps a pocket of exhaust air, decelerating the piston smoothly before it hits the end cover. You tune this needle to match your load and speed, which is critical for a 450 mm stroke, replacing the harsh fixed rubber bumper found on the standard MBL.
