The AirTAC Airtac MTF Mini Cylinder MTF25X150SU is a genuine single acting, pull (spring return) JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 150mm 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 153.6 N of net pull force at 0.5 MPa, this AirTAC MTF25X150SU is a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built for single-acting tension and fail-safe-open tasks. The internal spring constantly holds the 10 mm rod extended, while supplying air to the 1/8 inch port retracts it. Because it loses air pressure gracefully by driving back out to the extended rest state, it perfectly suits spring-open / air-close mechanisms.
The SUS304 stainless steel barrel shrugs off mild washdown environments, and the riveted aluminium covers yield a shorter installed footprint than an equivalent ISO 6432 unit. This specific U flat-end rear cover variant includes a built-in piston magnet (-S), enabling direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG electronic switches. End-of-stroke deceleration relies on fixed TPU bumper pads rather than an adjustable cushion. For practical sizing, the 153.6 N rating translates to a safe working load of about 92 N, or roughly 7.8 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 safety margin.

| 0.7 MPa | 236.0 N |
Single-acting pull: the spring extends the rod; air 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 153.6 N pull force to maintain constant belt or web tension, releasing the load automatically to the extended position if air pressure drops.
Holds a barrier retracted via air pressure; upon air loss, the internal spring snaps the 150 mm stroke back out to physically open the gate.
Pulls packaging flaps down during transit on a conveyor, relying on the spring-extended rest state to clear the path when the line halts.
When sizing this 25 mm bore, evaluate the adjacent options: step down to the MTF20 for 93.4 N @0.5 MPa if loads are light, or step up to the MTF32 for 266.8 N @0.5 MPa when heavier retraction is needed. Ensure your air supply stays at or above the 0.2 MPa floor required to overcome the internal spring. The U flat-end back cover pairs seamlessly with LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion mounts. Thanks to the -S suffix, this unit is fully sensor-ready for CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder provides a net pull force of 153.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 236 N at 0.7 MPa. It requires a minimum operating pressure of 0.2 MPa to overcome the internal return spring, with a maximum limit of 1.0 MPa.
The spring constantly extends the rod, so an air loss drives the rod to the fully extended position rather than holding a mid-stroke load. The -S suffix denotes a built-in magnet, allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches to track piston position.
