The AirTAC Airtac MG Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MG25X100 is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a SUS304 stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
With a 25 mm bore and 100 mm stroke, this MG cylinder delivers double acting power in a compact round body: about 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 343.4 N at 0.7 MPa. The barrel is SUS304 stainless steel riveted onto the covers, paired with a hard-chrome plated 10 mm rod, so it shrugs off damp, washdown-prone and outdoor conditions that quickly ruin painted-steel minis.
Because the MG follows the JIS mini-cylinder standard, its mounting and accessory footprint drops straight onto standard JIS brackets and rod knuckles, which simplifies spares and redesigns. For sizing, a sensible working figure is roughly 147 N of real push force at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting about 12 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. A fixed anti-impact bumper pad softens the stroke ends; it decelerates only and is not an adjustable air cushion. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-800 mm/s, -20 to +70 C.

Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

MG-family variants: MG / MGC (double acting ±cushion), MSG / MTG (single acting push / pull), MGD / MGCD (double rod ±cushion). Accessories: LB foot, FA flange, CB clevis, SDB pivot block, plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G / NPT.
With 245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, the 25 mm bore side-shifts filled 500 ml bottle groups between conveyor lanes, and the SUS304 barrel tolerates daily washdown.
Around 147 N of working force at 0.5 MPa is enough to seat bushings into plastic housings on a 100 mm stroke press fixture.
The 100 mm stroke folds carton flaps on a packaging machine, with the fixed bumper pad absorbing the direction-change shock at each cycle end.
At 25 mm bore the MG sits mid-range: the 20 mm bore below offers 157.0 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to 32 mm buys 402.2 N. If your load needs more than about 147 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa, choose this size; if it is a light gate or fixture under 90 N, the MG20 saves space and air. Note that a plain MG does not hold position when air is lost - the rod drifts - so add an external rod lock or a pilot check valve for held loads. This SKU has no magnet, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches cannot be fitted; order the -S version if you need position sensing. Mount it with LB foot, FA flange, CB clevis or SDB pivot brackets.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N; at 0.7 MPa push is 343.4 N and pull 288.5 N. The theoretical maximum is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Ports are 1/8", the rod is 10 mm with M10x1.25 male thread, and the operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
No - this SKU has no built-in magnet, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches cannot be mounted. Order the magnet-equipped MG25X100S if you need end-position detection. Also note the fixed bumper pad only softens stroke-end impact; it is not an adjustable cushion and does not hold a load if air pressure is lost.
