The AirTAC Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD63X300 is a genuine double-acting double-rod aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 300mm stroke. A rod exits both end covers, so extend and retract force are EQUAL — about 1458 N each way at 0.5 MPa. Fixed rubber bumper.
The AirTAC MBLD63X300 is a double-acting, double-rod aluminum mini cylinder engineered for heavy-duty push-pull cycles. Because a Ø16 mm carbon-steel rod with 20 µm hard-chrome plating exits both end covers, the annulus area is identical on extend and retract. This yields exactly 1457 N of force at 0.5 MPa and 2040 N at 0.7 MPa in both directions, ensuring perfectly balanced motion for a 300 mm stroke. The riveted rolling-packed barrel keeps the compact body rigid in tight machine spaces.
A defining mechanical trait of this twin-rod layout is the ability to mount a primary workpiece on the front rod and a secondary guide, cam, or position flag on the rear rod, which protrudes by 300 mm and requires rear clearance. The overall length equals A plus twice the stroke. This SKU uses a fixed rubber bumper to soften end-of-travel impact (adjustable cushion is the MBLCD variant) and has no built-in magnet, meaning it cannot host a CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensor.

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 | 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.

Drives a 300 mm ejector pin array on a 200-ton injection molding press, using the 1457 N both-way force to push parts clear and retract the plate simultaneously.
Powering a heavy-duty rotary indexing drum, the twin rods prevent torsional twist during 300 mm travel while shifting 60 kg metal castings between CNC stations.
Synchronizes a vertical stacker elevator in an electronics assembly line, using the rear rod end to mechanically trip a mechanical limit flag at full extension.
For 300 mm strokes, the MBLD63 sits at the top of the standard range with a maximum 297 kgf theoretical load at 1.0 MPa. If you need less force, step down to the 50 mm bore, which provides 881 N at 0.5 MPa; there is no larger standard bore in the MBLD mini line. Because this 300 mm stroke pushes a small 16 mm rod, external side-load guidance is mandatory to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot brackets—there is no SDB pivot or back-cover option. If you need adjustable air cushioning rather than fixed rubber bumpers, select the MBLCD63 variant. To replace this unit, match the 63 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, G1/4 port, PT thread, and confirm no magnet is required.
Quick checklist
The double-rod design provides equal force both ways: 1457 N at 0.5 MPa and 2040 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum theoretical load of 297 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 300 mm stroke is the maximum standard stroke for the 63 mm bore.
Unlike a single-rod MBL cylinder, the MBLD63X300 has a rod exiting both ends, making extend and retract forces equal. This allows you to mount a workpiece on the front rod and a cam or guide on the rear rod, but requires rear clearance. Note that this specific SKU lacks a built-in magnet, so no reed or electronic sensor can be fitted.
