Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD25X150S
The AirTAC Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD25X150S is a genuine double acting, double rod + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 150mm 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 MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD25X150S
Delivering 206.1 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa in both directions, the AirTAC MFCD25X150S is a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built for balanced, high-speed motion. Its SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted aluminium covers form a compact body that is physically shorter than an ISO 6432 unit of the same bore and stroke. A needle-set variable air cushion at each end soaks up end-of-stroke shock, while the twin Ø10 mm rods exiting both covers resist rotation and let you mount a second tool or stopper on the back side.
Because the piston pushes and pulls on the identical rod-side area, you get equal force both ways (288.5 N at 0.7 MPa, 42 kgf max at 1.0 MPa). The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for position feedback. For sizing, this bore yields a safe working load of roughly 124 N, or about a 10.5 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The unit features a 1/8" port and M10x1.25 male rod threads.

Where the Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD25X150S Is Used
Dual-Tool Transfer
Uses the 206.1 N bidirectional force to push parts on the forward stroke and index an empty fixture on the return, cutting cycle time in half.
High-Speed Stamping Feed
Twin Ø10 mm rods prevent rotation during rapid 150 mm advances, while the needle air cushions absorb end-of-stroke shock to protect the die.
Vertical Lift Gate
Raises and lowers a 10 kg sorting flap with a 2:1 safety margin, relying on the equal push and pull force to smoothly lower the load.
Is the Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD25X150S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 25 mm bore over the smaller MFCD20 (131.9 N at 0.5 MPa) when your load approaches 120 N, or step up to an MFCD32 (345.6 N at 0.5 MPa) for heavier tooling. The 150 mm stroke and twin-rod design excel in high-speed pick-and-place where anti-rotation stability is critical. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (there is no SDB option because a rod exits both ends). Remember that the air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke end; they do not function as a brake. If you need to hold a load vertically during an air loss event, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
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 MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD25X150S FAQ
It generates equal force in both directions due to the double-rod design: 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa, 288.5 N at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 42 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is 1/8".
The variable air cushions only decelerate the piston near the ends; they do not lock or hold the load on air loss, so you need an external rod lock for vertical holding. The -S suffix means it has a magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
