The AirTAC Airtac MG Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MG25X300S 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 and a 300 mm stroke, this MG series 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. It follows the JIS mini-cylinder standard, so standard JIS brackets and rod knuckles bolt straight on without custom machining - a real advantage when you need a spare or a drop-in replacement. 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-of-stroke signalling.
The barrel is SUS304 stainless steel riveted onto the front and back covers, paired with a hard-chrome plated 10 mm rod, which shrugs off moisture and mild washdown far better than painted-steel minis. A fixed anti-impact pad at each stroke end softens direction changes - it decelerates only and is not an adjustable cushion. For planning: at 0.5 MPa expect roughly 147 N of usable push (about 0.6 of the rating), which lifts around 15 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-800 mm/s.

The 300 mm stroke swings or slides a reject gate across a bottling conveyor, with the built-in magnet feeding a CMSG switch to confirm gate position before the next bottle passes.
About 245 N of push at 0.5 MPa slides filled cartons off a case-packer infeed, and the stainless barrel copes with the damp, spill-prone zone around glue stations.
With roughly 15 kg of safe vertical lift at 0.5 MPa, the cylinder raises wafer totes between a magazine loader and a workbench, the fixed bumper pads damping each touchdown.
At 245.3 N push (0.5 MPa), the MG25X300S sits between the MG20 (157 N) and the MG32 (402.2 N): step down to MG20 for lighter tooling clamps, or up to MG32 when parts approach 25 kg. The 300 mm stroke is within the 500 mm standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order surcharge applies. Note that if air is lost the rod drifts freely - the bumper pads only soften the stroke end, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Choose LB foot, FA flange or CB clevis mounting to suit the frame, and keep the -S magnet if position sensing is planned.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 245.3 N and pulls with 206.1 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull. The theoretical maximum is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), at speeds of 30-800 mm/s and temperatures from -20 to +70 C.
Yes. The S in the model code means a piston magnet is factory-fitted, so AirTAC CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed/electronic switches clamp directly onto the SUS304 barrel to signal rod position. Without the magnet option a standard MG cannot carry these switches.
