Airtac MBLCD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBLCD63X10
The AirTAC Airtac MBLCD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBLCD63X10 is a genuine double-acting double-rod aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 10mm stroke. A rod exits both end covers, so extend and retract force are EQUAL — about 1458 N each way at 0.5 MPa. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).

About the Airtac MBLCD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBLCD63X10
The AirTAC MBLCD63X10 is a compact double-acting double-rod mini cylinder featuring an adjustable air cushion at both ends. Because a Ø16 mm piston rod exits both covers, the effective annulus area is identical in each direction, delivering an equal 1457 N of force at 0.5 MPa on extend and retract. This 10 mm stroke variant is built for heavy, short-travel clamping or pressing tasks where high power must fit into a tight footprint. It uses a G1/4 port and an M14x1.5 rod-end thread.
The integrated screw-tunable air cushion lets you dial in end-of-stroke deceleration, protecting the end covers from impact during fast, heavy moves—a clear upgrade over the fixed rubber bumper found on the base MBLD series. Note that this specific SKU lacks a built-in magnet (-S), meaning it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors. The riveted aluminum barrel and hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod provide durable, grease-retaining operation up to 800 mm/s.
Airtac MBLCD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBLCD63X10 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac MBLCD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBLCD63X10 |
|---|---|
| Series | MBL aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder (double rod) |
| Bore size | Ø63 mm |
| Stroke | 10 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, double rod |
| Port size | G1/4 |
| Rod thread | M14×1.5 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Adjustable air cushion (both ends) |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 500 mm |
Double-rod overall length = A + 2 × stroke — leave clearance for the rear rod. MBLD/MBLCD mounting is Basic / FA / LB only (no SDB, no back-cover code). Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Output Force (Ø63mm, equal both ways)
| Pressure | Extend & retract force |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1458 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2041 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 297 kgf |
A rod on both piston faces makes the annulus area equal, so extend and retract force (and speed) are the same. Actual usable force is lower due to friction.

Where the Airtac MBLCD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBLCD63X10 Is Used
Stamping Pin Ejection
Drives a 10 mm rapid ejection stroke in a progressive die press, using its 1457 N both-way force to reliably kick heavy stamped metal pins clear of the tooling without rebound.
PCB Router Clamping
Secures heavy aluminum tooling plates on a PCB depaneling router, utilizing the twin-rod anti-rotation design to maintain rigid perpendicularity during high-speed spindle passes.
Bottle Capper Press
Applies precise downward pressure on plastic bottle caps in a rotary capping machine, using the adjustable air cushion to softly seat the cap at the end of the 10 mm travel.
Is the Airtac MBLCD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBLCD63X10 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 63 mm bore when you need maximum thrust in a minimal stroke. If 1457 N at 0.5 MPa is excessive, step down to the 50 mm bore, which provides 881 N both ways. If you need even more force, the 63 mm is the largest available MBLCD size, offering up to 2040 N at 0.7 MPa and a 297 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. Because this is a 10 mm stroke, side-load stress on the rod is negligible, but ensure the rear rod has physical clearance since the overall length is A + 2 x stroke. This model has a default PT port thread and no magnet; for position detection you would need the MBLCD63X10S variant. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot—there is no SDB pivot or back-cover option. Remember, the cushion only decelerates the stroke; it does not lock the rod, so an external locking mechanism is required to hold a load without live air.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Equal force both ways at your pressure
- ✓ Rear-rod clearance (length = A + 2 × stroke)
- ✓ Mounting: Basic / FA / LB only
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — add a guide on long strokes
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Leave clearance for the rear rod (length = A + 2 × stroke).
- check Avoid side load; add an external guide on long strokes.
- check Mounting: Basic / FA flange / LB foot (no SDB, no back-cover code).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MBLCD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBLCD63X10 FAQ
Because the double-rod design has equal piston area on both sides, the push and pull forces are identical: 1457 N at 0.5 MPa, 2040 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical force of 297 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This specific SKU (MBLCD63X10) does not have a built-in magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The adjustable air cushion at both ends is screw-tunable to decelerate the load before impact, protecting the end covers; it is not a locking device.
