Airtac MTF Mini Cylinder MTF20X10CM
The AirTAC Airtac MTF Mini Cylinder MTF20X10CM is a genuine single acting, pull (spring return) JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm 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 MTF Mini Cylinder MTF20X10CM
Delivering 93.4 N of net pull at 0.5 MPa, this JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder uses an internal spring to keep the rod extended, while supplied air retracts it. The SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers yield a shorter envelope than an ISO 6432 unit, saving valuable mounting space while resisting mild washdown corrosion.
Fitted with a CM round rear cover and a 10 mm stroke, the MTF20X10CM ports via 1/8" thread. The quoted pull force is already net of the spring; expect a safe working load of about 56 N, or roughly 4.8 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø20mm)
| Pressure | Pull force (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 93.4 N |

Where the Airtac MTF Mini Cylinder MTF20X10CM Is Used
Light Tensioning
Pulls light cables or filaments with a 56 N safe working load, releasing tension only when air pressure is applied.
Fail-Safe Open Valve
Holds a small flap or gate open via the internal spring, using the 93.4 N pull to close it pneumatically.
Micro Retraction
Retracts a short 10 mm pin or stopper in compact packaging machines where the cylinder must default to extended.
Is the Airtac MTF Mini Cylinder MTF20X10CM the Right Cylinder?
If 93.4 N at 0.5 MPa is insufficient, step up to the MTF25 bore, which provides 153.6 N of pull; 20 mm is the smallest available MTF bore. This single-acting pull design fits spring-open, air-close routines where tensioning or fail-safe-to-extended behaviour is required.
Operating pressure must stay between 0.2 and 1.0 MPa, as 0.2 MPa is the floor needed to overcome the spring. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion. Because this specific unit has no -S magnet, position sensing is unavailable.
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 MTF Mini Cylinder MTF20X10CM FAQ
It delivers a net pull of 93.4 N at 0.5 MPa and 146.1 N at 0.7 MPa. You must supply at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the internal return spring and retract the rod.
No, this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, so CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches cannot be installed. The spring defaults the rod to the extended position on air loss, and fixed TPU bumper pads absorb end-of-stroke impacts.
