The AirTAC Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD25X75S is a genuine double-acting double-rod aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 75mm 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 MBLD25X75S is a compact double-acting double-rod aluminum mini cylinder engineered for symmetrical motion. Because a Ø10 mm rod exits both end covers, the annulus area is identical on extend and retract, yielding an equal force of 206 N each way at 0.5 MPa. This 75 mm stroke is well suited to short-transfer and gating tasks where consistent end-to-end velocity is required. The built-in magnet (-S) enables position detection.
The rear rod protrusion allows you to mount a position flag or secondary cam while the front rod drives the primary tool, providing inherent anti-rotation guidance for light loads. It features a riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel and a 20 um hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod. Impact is managed by a fixed rubber bumper at the stroke ends. Note that overall length is A + 2 x stroke, so you must leave rear-rod clearance in your envelope.

| 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 | Fixed rubber bumper |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 300 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.
| Pressure | Extend & retract force |
|---|---|
| 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.

Moves populated circuit boards between inspection stations with 206 N of equal push/pull force, preventing jerk on direction reversal.
Uses the rear protruding rod to mount a limit flag while the front rod shifts a yarn guide, keeping the 75 mm stroke perfectly synchronized.
Pushes tested electronic probes out of a test socket and retracts at identical speed, using the -S magnet to trigger a CMSG reed switch.
If you need less thrust, stepping down to the 20 mm bore yields 132 N both ways at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the 32 mm bore provides 346 N. The base MBLD uses a fixed rubber bumper—if your payload needs a softer deceleration, select the MBLCD variant which adds adjustable air cushioning. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot brackets—there is no SDB pivot or back-cover option. A plain MBLD does not hold position without live air, so fit an external lock for gravity-loaded vertical applications. This exact replacement requires a 25 mm bore, 75 mm stroke, G1/8 port, PT thread, and the -S magnet.
Quick checklist
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the force is identical in both directions: 206 N at 0.5 MPa, 289 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 42 kgf at 1.0 MPa. There is no larger push-side figure.
A single-rod MBL has unequal push/pull areas, whereas the MBLD has a rod on both sides, making extend and retract force exactly equal. The rear rod can also drive a secondary mechanism or position flag, but requires clearance behind the cylinder.
