Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD63X30S
The AirTAC Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD63X30S is a genuine double-acting double-rod aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 30mm 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.

About the Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD63X30S
The AirTAC MBLD63X30S is a double-acting, double-rod aluminum mini cylinder engineered for symmetrical motion. A single piston drives a Ø16 mm carbon-steel rod out of both end covers, yielding identical annulus areas on each side. This means extend and retract forces are perfectly equal at 1457 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The 30 mm stroke provides high-impact power in a compact footprint, while the built-in magnet (-S) enables position detection.
This configuration uses a G1/4 port and M14x1.5 rod-end threads. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel houses a heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal, and the rod features 20 um hard-chrome plating for wear resistance. End-of-stroke deceleration relies on a fixed rubber bumper. Because a rod protrudes from the rear, the overall length is A + 2 x stroke, requiring rear clearance to prevent mechanical interference during operation.
Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD63X30S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD63X30S |
|---|---|
| Series | MBL aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder (double rod) |
| Bore size | Ø63 mm |
| Stroke | 30 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 | Fixed rubber bumper |
| 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 MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD63X30S Is Used
Stamping Press Feeders
Drives a short 30 mm punch in a metal stamping line, using the 1457 N equal both-way force to reliably feed and retract strip stock without asymmetric speed drift.
Printed Circuit Board Handlers
Transfers PCBs between processing stations. The twin-rod design keeps the 63 mm bore payload guided against rotation, while the rear rod end mounts a physical position flag.
Semiconductor Wafer Cassettes
Indexes wafer cassettes with a short 30 mm stroke. The -S magnet works with a DMSG electronic sensor to confirm the exact extend and retract positions in cleanroom tooling.
Is the Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD63X30S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 63 mm bore actuator, evaluate your force margins: the 50 mm neighbour provides 881 N at 0.5 MPa, while the 63 mm is the largest available in this mini series at 1457 N. If your application requires precise end-position tuning rather than the fixed rubber bumper found here, step up to the MBLCD variant which features an adjustable air cushion. For standard single-ended pushing tasks without the anti-rotation benefit of twin rods, the MBL single-rod series is more appropriate.
Mounting is limited to Basic, FA (flange), or LB (foot) brackets; the MBLD does not support SDB pivot or back-cover (CA/U) configurations. To replace this SKU, match the 63 mm bore, 30 mm stroke, G1/4 port, PT thread, and the -S magnet. Note that a plain MBLD does not hold position without continuous live air pressure—the bumper only softens impact, so use an external lock for static holding.
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 MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD63X30S FAQ
Because the rod occupies both sides of the piston, the MBLD63X30S delivers equal force in both directions: 1457 N at 0.5 MPa, 2040 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical 297 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The -S code indicates a built-in magnet, allowing use with AirTAC CMSG (reed), DMSG, or EMSG (solid-state) sensor switches for position detection.
Unlike a single-rod cylinder where the push force exceeds the pull force due to the rod displacing volume, the MBLD double-rod design has identical annulus areas on both sides. This results in perfectly equal extend and retract forces and speeds. Additionally, the rear protruding rod can be used to mount a cam, drive a secondary mechanism, or act as a guide for anti-rotation.
