Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF25X10SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF25X10SCA is a genuine single acting, push (spring return) JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 10mm 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 MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF25X10SCA
Delivering 192.8 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this AirTAC MSF25X10SCA mini cylinder uses compressed air to extend the rod while an internal spring handles the retraction. Because it is a single-acting push type, you only need to plumb one 1/8" port, simplifying valve requirements and ensuring the rod fails safely to the retracted position upon air loss. The SUS304 stainless round-body construction shrinks mounting length compared to an ISO 6432 unit and resists mild washdown corrosion.
The quoted force is already net of the return spring, meaning you get that full output at the front of the stroke. For practical sizing, a safe working load is about 116 N, or roughly 9.8 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The 10 mm stroke is capped by fixed TPU bumper pads rather than an adjustable cushion, and the CA rear pivot cover pairs with the -S magnet option for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.

Where the Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF25X10SCA Is Used
Short-Stroke Clamping
Uses the 192.8 N push force to secure light metal workpieces against a stop, returning automatically when air is cut.
Part Ejector
Deploys the 10 mm stroke to knock finished components off a line, relying on the spring to keep the rod clear at rest.
Pneumatic Gate Latch
Extends to block a cart path, with the SUS304 barrel surviving humid or lightly washed industrial environments.
Is the Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF25X10SCA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 25 mm bore, compare its 192.8 N @0.5 MPa output against the smaller MSF20 at 117.5 N or the larger MSF32 at 323.3 N to ensure your clamp or ejector has adequate force. Remember the working pressure floor is 0.2 MPa; below that, the internal spring overpowers the air and prevents extension. The CA back cover provides a rear pivot mount, and you must specify the -S magnet option if you need to track position with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
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 0.2 – 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 MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF25X10SCA FAQ
It generates 192.8 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 290.9 N at 0.7 MPa. The operating pressure range is 0.2 to 1.0 MPa, but you must supply at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the internal return spring.
No. On air loss, the spring drives the rod to the retracted position; it cannot hold an arbitrary mid-stroke load. For position holding, use a double-acting MF cylinder with an external rod lock.
