The AirTAC Airtac MTF Mini Cylinder MTF25X60SCM is a genuine single acting, pull (spring return) JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 60mm 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.
Generating 153.6 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, this JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder uses a spring to extend the rod and compressed air through its 1/8 inch port to retract it. Because the internal spring constantly pushes outward, the MTF25X60SCM fails safely to the extended position upon air loss, making it optimal for spring-open and air-close operations. The SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted aluminium covers resist mild washdown corrosion while maintaining a shorter overall body than an ISO 6432 unit of identical bore and stroke.
The quoted 153.6 N pull force is already net of the spring resistance, yielding a safe working load of about 92 N or a 7.8 kg vertical lift capacity with a 2:1 margin. This specific configuration includes a CM round-end rear cover and a built-in piston magnet, enabling direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for position sensing. End-of-stroke deceleration is handled by fixed TPU bumper pads rather than an adjustable air cushion.

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 web materials or cables with a 92 N safe working load, releasing tension automatically when air pressure drops.
Holds doors or gates closed via air retraction, allowing the internal spring to force them open during an air loss event.
Retracts a diverter pin using 153.6 N of force to push products off a line, relying on the spring to reset the arm outward.
When sizing this 25 mm bore unit against alternatives, step down to the MTF20 for 93.4 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the MTF32 for 266.8 N if the load requires greater retraction force. A minimum operating pressure of 0.2 MPa is required to overcome the internal spring and initiate the pull stroke, with a maximum limit of 1.0 MPa. Choose this single-acting pull configuration for tensioning or return-to-extended fail-safe tasks, and utilize the compatible LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion mounts to suit your frame.
Quick checklist
It provides a net pull force of 153.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 236 N at 0.7 MPa. The cylinder requires a minimum of 0.2 MPa to overcome the return spring and accepts a maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa.
The internal spring constantly extends the rod, meaning compressed air is only used to pull it in. If air pressure is lost, the spring drives the rod back out to the fully extended position, so it cannot hold a mid-stroke load.
