The AirTAC Airtac MG Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MG25X25S is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 25mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a SUS304 stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
Compact yet capable, the MG25X25S is a double acting JIS round-body mini cylinder with a 25 mm bore and a short 25 mm stroke, pushing 245.3 N and pulling 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa (343.4 N / 288.5 N at 0.7 MPa, up to 50 kgf theoretical at 1.0 MPa). The S in the code means a magnet is built into the piston, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches can be clipped on for end-position sensing without any later modification.
The barrel is SUS304 stainless steel riveted onto the covers, paired with a 10 mm hard-chrome plated rod, which shrugs off moisture and light washdown far better than painted mini cylinders. In practice, plan on roughly 147 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 12 kg vertically with a sensible margin. A fixed anti-impact bumper pad softens the stroke ends, and the JIS mounting footprint accepts standard mini-cylinder brackets and I / Y rod knuckles.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
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.
The 245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa ejects filled blister trays off a forming station, and the 25 mm stroke matches the tray pitch exactly.
With the built-in magnet driving a CMSG switch, the cylinder confirms a connector housing is fully seated in an electronics assembly jig.
Short 25 mm strokes index glass bottles against a stop on a bottling line, where the stainless barrel handles frequent rinse-down.
At 25 mm bore this sits in the middle of the MG range: the 20 mm bore gives 157 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to 32 mm raises it to 402.2 N. If your tooling or part weighs under about 12 kg and you want vertical margin, the 25 is the balanced pick; for heavier clamping go to 32. The 25 mm stroke suits short-jaw grippers and ejector pins rather than long transfers. Keep side loads off the 10 mm rod on any stroke, and remember the bumper pad only decelerates the ends - it will not hold position if air is lost, so add a pilot check valve or external lock for suspended loads. Mounting options are LB foot, FA flange, CB clevis or SDB pivot, and the fitted magnet means sensor-ready delivery.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull. The theoretical maximum is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-800 mm/s.
The S means a piston magnet is factory-fitted, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed/solid-state switches mount directly on the 1/8"-ported body. The cylinder itself is a JIS-standard round-body mini with a riveted SUS304 stainless barrel and hard-chrome 10 mm rod - not a tie-rod design - with a fixed bumper pad at each stroke end to soften impact.
