Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC20X110SU
The AirTAC Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC20X110SU is a genuine double acting + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 110mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a SUS304 stainless-steel barrel for mildly corrosive environments. For the same bore and stroke it is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, saving mounting space.

About the Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC20X110SU
Tame high-cycle shock with the AirTAC MFC20X110SU, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers. The defining feature is the variable air cushion at both ends: a needle valve lets you dial in the deceleration to absorb end-of-stroke impact, protecting your payload at high speeds. Driven by double-acting air at 0.15-1.0 MPa, it generates 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a solid fit for compact 20 mm bore automation.
For the same bore and stroke, this riveted stainless body is noticeably shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, saving valuable mounting length. The -S suffix adds a piston magnet for position sensing, while the U flat-end rear cover provides a flush mounting face. Derived from its 0.5 MPa push rating, it handles a safe working load of roughly 94 N and lifts about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The 1/8" port and M8x1.25 male rod thread keep pneumatic and mechanical integration simple.

Where the Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC20X110SU Is Used
Light-Part Ejection
Shoots small plastic or aluminium parts out of a machining centre at speed, relying on the needle-set air cushion to prevent end-of-stroke bounce.
Carton Flap Folding
Folds light cardboard flaps on a packaging line where the 8 kg vertical lift capacity and 110 mm stroke clear the web safely.
Bin Diverting
Pushes small tote bins off a conveyor; the SUS304 barrel shrugs off mild washdown and the compact length fits tight transfer gaps.
Is the Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC20X110SU the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 20 mm bore unit, step up to the MFC25 (245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa) if your payload exceeds the 94 N safe working load, or drop down if you need less force—though 20 mm is the smallest MFC option available. The variable air cushion is essential when cycling at high speeds or moving fragile loads, as it replaces harsh bumper impacts with smooth, adjustable deceleration.
Because this is a double-acting cylinder, it will not hold a load if air pressure drops—the piston drifts, and the cushion only slows the stroke end rather than acting as a brake. Use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for fail-safe holding. The -S magnet pairs directly with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches, and the U back cover allows direct rear mounting.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC20X110SU FAQ
This 20 mm bore cylinder has a 1/8" port and an 8 mm rod with an M8x1.25 male thread. It delivers 157 N push and 131.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. However, the variable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end—it is not a brake. The cylinder will drift on air loss, so you need an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a vertical load.
