The AirTAC Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF25X80SU is a genuine single acting, push (spring return) JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 80mm 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 JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder uses a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers to save space. Because it is a single-acting push type, compressed air extends the rod while an internal spring retracts it, meaning you only pipe and valve one 1/8 inch port. The body is notably shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 25 mm bore and 80 mm stroke.
The quoted output is already net of the return spring, yielding a safe working load of about 116 N or a 9.8 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The -S suffix equips the piston with a magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensing, while the U flat-end back cover suits tight mounting envelopes. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb end-of-stroke impact across the 50-800 mm/s speed range.

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 output to knock finished parts off a conveyor, with the spring ensuring the gate retracts clear on air loss.
Secures light workpieces during machining, applying roughly 116 N of safe holding force before springing back to release the part.
Raises a 9.8 kg fixture against gravity using the 0.5 MPa thrust, relying on the spring return to lower the load safely.
If 117.5 N from the MSF20 is insufficient, this 25 mm bore provides 192.8 N at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the MSF32 yields 323.3 N if your clamp requires more thrust. Remember the 0.2 MPa pressure floor—below that, the internal spring wins and the rod will not extend. Match your mounting using LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion brackets, and select CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors since the -S magnet is present.
Quick checklist
It generates 192.8 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 290.9 N at 0.7 MPa. Because it is single-acting with a spring return, you must supply at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the spring and extend the rod.
No. On air loss the internal spring drives the rod to the retracted position; it cannot hold an arbitrary mid-stroke load. For position holding you need a double-acting MF cylinder with an external rod lock. The -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to track end positions.
