The AirTAC Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD25X150 is a genuine double-acting double-rod aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 150mm stroke. A rod exits both end covers, so extend and retract force are EQUAL — about 206 N each way at 0.5 MPa. Fixed rubber bumper.
The AirTAC MBLD25X150 is a double-acting, double-rod aluminum mini cylinder engineered for symmetrical motion tasks. Because a Ø10mm rod exits both end covers, the annulus area is identical on both sides, yielding exactly 206N of force at 0.5 MPa in both extend and retract directions. The 150mm stroke provides ample travel for mid-range positioning. It features a riveted rolling-packed barrel and a 20µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod.
This configuration is ideal when you need to mount a workpiece on the front rod and a position flag or cam on the rear protruding rod. The fixed rubber bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact, while the grease-retaining piston seal ensures consistent lubrication. Note that the overall length is A + 2 x 150mm, so you must leave physical clearance for the rear rod. This specific SKU lacks a built-in magnet and cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors.

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.

|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 42 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.

Provides 206N of equal bidirectional force to actuate a 150mm travel stopper pin on a PCB assembly line, using the rear rod to drive a mirrored limit flag.
Maintains balanced tension on a fabric tracking loom where the twin-rod design prevents uneven twisting during the 150mm extend and retract cycles.
Drives a dual-sided sorting flap for semiconductor wafer handling, leveraging the compact 25mm bore to fit within tight machine cell clearances.
If your application requires less force, step down to the MBLD20X150, which provides 132N at 0.5 MPa. If you need more power, step up to the MBLD32X150, which offers 346N at 0.5 MPa. The 150mm stroke is well within the 300mm maximum standard stroke for this 25mm bore. Mounting options are limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot brackets; there is no SDB pivot or back-cover mounting option available for this double-rod series. To replace this cylinder, match the 25mm bore, 150mm stroke, G1/8 port, PT thread, and standard non-magnet configuration. A plain MBLD does not hold position without live air; the rod will drift if air pressure is removed, so use an external locking mechanism for static holding.
Quick checklist
The MBLD25X150 provides equal force in both directions due to the double-rod design. The output is 206N at 0.5 MPa, 289N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical 42 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
A double-rod cylinder has a rod protruding from both ends, providing equal extend and retract force while allowing you to mount a secondary cam or guide on the rear rod. This specific MBLD25X150 SKU does not have a built-in magnet, so it cannot be fitted with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors.
