The AirTAC Airtac MG Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MG25X300 is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 300mm 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 pushing about 245 N at 0.5 MPa, the MG25X300 is a double acting JIS round-body mini cylinder with a 300 mm stroke. Its SUS304 stainless barrel and hard-chrome plated rod (20 um) shrug off damp, washdown-prone spots where painted-steel minis corrode, and the riveted covers keep the body compact and light. The front cover carries a fixed anti-impact bumper pad that softens the direction change at each stroke end.
Because the MG follows the JIS mini-cylinder standard, its mounting footprint drops straight into standard JIS brackets and rod knuckles, so spares and redesigns stay simple. Plan real work at roughly 145 N (about 0.6 of the push rating), which lifts around 14 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that this SKU has no magnet: without the optional S code, no CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensor can be mounted.

| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | 289 N |
| 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 N push at 0.5 MPa (343 N at 0.7 MPa) is enough to kick off-spec bottles or cartons off a conveyor, and the SUS304 barrel handles repeated washdown in beverage plants.
With about 14 kg of vertical lift capacity at a 2:1 margin, the 300 mm stroke raises sample racks or trays between bench levels; add the S magnet option on re-order for CMSG position sensing.
The fixed bumper pad softens the fast direction change in high-cycle tucking stations running 30-800 mm/s, keeping end-of-stroke noise and wear down on packaging machinery.
At 25 mm bore the MG25X300 sits mid-range: the 20 mm bore gives 157 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to 32 mm raises it to 402 N. If your load needs more than about 145 N of usable force, size up; if it is light and you want the smallest envelope, size down. The 300 mm stroke is well inside the 500 mm standard range for this bore, but long strokes invite side load, so guide the load externally or use a rod knuckle (I or Y) to protect the 10 mm rod. Mounting options are LB foot, FA flange, CB clevis or SDB pivot bracket. Remember that a plain MG drifts when air is lost or the valve centres: for a held position, add an external rod lock or a pilot check valve.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 343.4 N and pulls 288.5 N. The theoretical maximum is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi), on clean air filtered to 40 um.
Not as supplied. This SKU has no built-in magnet, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches cannot detect the piston. Order the magnet version (add S to the code, e.g. MG25X300S) if you need end-of-stroke or mid-stroke sensing.
