The AirTAC Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF25X10SU 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.
Delivering a net push force of 192.8 N at 0.5 MPa, this 25 mm bore mini cylinder uses compressed air to extend the rod and an internal spring to retract it. Because it is single-acting, you only pipe and valve one 1/8" port, which simplifies automation and ensures the rod fails to the retracted position on air loss. The SUS304 stainless round body and riveted aluminium covers form a JIS-standard assembly that is physically shorter than an equivalent ISO 6432 unit, saving valuable mounting length.
With a 10 mm stroke and a built-in magnet (-S) for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches, it suits tight ejector stations. The quoted push force is already net of the return spring, meaning you get the full 192.8 N at 0.5 MPa (290.9 N at 0.7 MPa) for clamping. For context, this bore safely handles a working load of about 116 N, or vertically lifts roughly 9.8 kg with a 2:1 margin. It features fixed TPU bumper pads and a U flat-end rear cover.

Single-acting push: air extends the rod; the return spring retracts it. Forces already net the spring; minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa.

MF-family variants: MF / MFC (double acting ±cushion), MSF / MTF (single acting push / pull), MFD / MFCD (double rod ±cushion), MFJ / MFCJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Uses the 192.8 N push force at 0.5 MPa to hold light machined parts securely, relying on the spring to release the clamp instantly when air is cut.
Ideal for pushing small cartons off a belt with a 10 mm stroke, failing safely to the retracted position if the air supply drops.
Raises a light 9.8 kg diverter flap using the extend stroke, letting the internal spring pull the gate back down to rest.
When sizing this unit, compare it both ways: the smaller MSF20 bore yields 117.5 N at 0.5 MPa, while the larger MSF32 provides 323.3 N. Choose this 25 mm model when your application requires a true single-acting push action, such as spring-return clamping or part ejection, where losing air safely retracts the load. Remember the 0.2 MPa pressure floor needed to overcome the spring, and pair the U flat-end cover with LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion mounts as your frame dictates.
Quick checklist
It generates a net push force of 192.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 290.9 N at 0.7 MPa. Because it is single-acting with a spring return, the operating pressure must be at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the spring, with a maximum of 1.0 MPa.
No, the internal spring drives the rod to the fully retracted rest position on air loss; it cannot hold an arbitrary mid-stroke load. The -S magnet allows position confirmation via CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches, and the SUS304 stainless barrel resists mild washdown.
