Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD25X200
The AirTAC Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD25X200 is a genuine double acting, double rod + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 200mm 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 MFCD25X200
Delivering 206.1 N of force at 0.5 MPa in both directions, the AirTAC MFCD25X200 is a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built for demanding, high-speed linear motion. The double-acting, double-rod configuration uses a 10 mm piston rod exiting both covers, providing equal thrust and excellent anti-rotation resistance. A needle-set variable air cushion at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock, ensuring smooth deceleration across the 200 mm travel. The riveted SUS304 stainless steel barrel and aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdowns. Furthermore, this compact body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder of the same bore and stroke, saving valuable mounting length.
This specific SKU lacks a magnet, meaning it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors. For automated tracking, you would need the -S variant. Based on the 206.1 N output, this cylinder handles a safe working load of roughly 124 N (about 60% capacity) or lifts approximately 10.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. It features a 1/8" port and M10x1.25 male rod threads. Note that the air cushion only decelerates the load near stroke end; it does not function as a brake, so an external rod lock or pilot check valve is required to hold position on air loss.

Where the Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD25X200 Is Used
High-Speed Transfer Pusher
Pushes components smoothly between conveyor lanes at high speed, using the 206.1 N thrust and adjustable air cushions to prevent harsh end-of-stroke impacts over the 200 mm travel.
Twin-Tool Stamping Station
Drives two synchronized forming tools via the dual rods, ensuring parallel contact and resisting rotation under load while the needle valves dial in the perfect deceleration curve.
Vertical Lift Gate
Raises and lowers a 10 kg access gate with a 2:1 safety margin, relying on the equal both-ways force and stable twin-rod guidance to prevent binding during vertical transit.
Is the Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD25X200 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing an MFCD, compare the actual thrust: this MFCD25 delivers 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa both ways, sitting between the MFCD20 at 131.9 N and the MFCD32 at 345.6 N. Choose the 25 mm bore when your application needs moderate force plus the stability of twin rods to prevent side-play over the 200 mm stroke. The adjustable air cushions are essential here, allowing you to tune deceleration for speeds up to 800 mm/s without slamming.
Because this model has no -S magnet, it cannot support magnetic sensing; if your sequence requires end-of-stroke confirmation, select an -S version instead. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion (there is no SDB or back-cover code due to the dual-rod design). Remember that the cushion absorbs shock but does not lock the load—always add a pilot check valve for vertical holding.
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 MFCD25X200 FAQ
This 25 mm bore cylinder features a 10 mm rod at both ends, a 1/8" port, and M10x1.25 male rod threads. Because it is double-acting and double-rod, it generates equal force in both directions: 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.
No. This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. Additionally, the variable air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends; they do not lock or brake the load. For position holding on air loss, you must install an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
