Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD25X150

Twin Ø10 mm rods exit both covers of the AirTAC MFCD25X150, yielding identical thrust in both directions—206.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 288.5 N at 0.7 MPa—while actively resisting side-play and rotation. Because the effective area is rod-side on both ends, you get perfectly symmetrical force for pushing and pulling, with a theoretical maximum of 42 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 1/8" air port feeds a JIS-standard round-body design that is physically shorter than a comparable ISO 6432 cylinder, saving valuable machine length.

Needle-set variable air cushions at both ends absorb high-speed end-of-stroke shock, allowing smooth operation anywhere in the 30-800 mm/s range without fixed bumpers. The riveted SUS304 stainless steel barrel and aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdown. For sizing, this bore provides a safe working load of roughly 124 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa rating), translating to a vertical lift capacity of approximately 10.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors without upgrading to the -S variant.
