The AirTAC Airtac MTF Mini Cylinder MTF25X15SCA is a genuine single acting, pull (spring return) JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 15mm 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 pull of 153.6 N at 0.5 MPa, this single-acting spring-return cylinder uses air to retract the rod and an internal spring to push it back out. The AirTAC MTF25X15SCA features a 25 mm bore, a 10 mm rod, and a 1/8 inch port. Because the spring holds the rod extended at rest, the cylinder fails safely to the open position if air pressure drops. It is not a mid-stroke holding brake.
Built as a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, the unit is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same footprint, resisting mild corrosion and washdown. This specific SKU includes a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors, and uses a CA pivot back cover. For a practical 2:1 safety margin, it provides an effective vertical lift capacity of about 7.8 kg.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MF/MFC (JIS-standard) datasheet. Barrel: SUS304 stainless steel; covers: aluminum alloy (round-body, riveted rolling-packed construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Pull force (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 153.6 N |
| 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.
Pulls and holds webbing or wire under tension with 153.6 N force, releasing the load automatically to the extended position upon air loss.
Holds a 25 mm bore access door closed via air retraction; the internal spring drives the barrier open safely during an air pressure failure.
Retracts a deflector pin out of the conveyor path using compressed air, relying on the spring to snap the arm back into the divert position.
When sizing this 25 mm bore unit, compare its 153.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa against adjacent bores: step down to the MTF20 for 93.4 N, or up to the MTF32 for 266.8 N. The single-acting pull design fits spring-open, air-close tasks, tensioning, and fail-safe-to-extended operations. Ensure your supply meets the 0.2 MPa minimum floor required to overcome the spring. With the included -S magnet, you can mount position switches, while the CA pivot cover and standard 1/8 inch port simplify integration.
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 and retract the rod.
The spring holds the rod extended at rest; air pressure pulls it in, meaning it fails to the extended position on air loss. This SKU includes a -S magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches, and features a CA pivot back cover.
