The AirTAC Airtac MTF Mini Cylinder MTF25X80SCA is a genuine single acting, pull (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 153.6 N of net pull at 0.5 MPa (236 N at 0.7 MPa), this JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder uses a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers. The internal spring constantly pushes the 10 mm rod outward, while supplying air to the 1/8 inch port retracts it. This single-acting pull architecture ensures the rod fails to the extended position on air loss, making it ideal for spring-open, air-close operations.
Because the spring force is already overcome by the air pressure, you must maintain at least 0.2 MPa to retract the piston. For a 2:1 safety margin, this bore provides an effective vertical lift capacity of about 7.8 kg. The body is notably shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder of equivalent bore and stroke, saving valuable mounting length. The CA rear pivot cover and built-in magnet (-S) allow direct mounting and position feedback via CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.

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.
Air pulls the rod back to clear a guard, while the spring automatically extends it to lock the gate open during an outage or emergency stop.
Provides 153.6 N of retraction force to pull a tensioning jig back to its home position, with the spring holding the assembly steady at rest.
Uses compressed air to pull a packaging flap closed against product flow, relying on the spring to push the flap wide open when air is removed.
When sizing this 25 mm bore, evaluate your tensioning requirements against its 153.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa. If your load is lighter, stepping down to the MTF20 yields 93.4 N; if heavier, the MTF32 provides 266.8 N. This model fits air-close mechanisms where the spring safely holds the rod out, but remember it cannot hold a mid-stroke load on air loss. Operating pressure must stay between 0.2 and 1.0 MPa to function correctly.
The CA back cover suits pivot mounting, and you can pair it with LB foot or FA flange front attachments. Fixed TPU bumper pads manage end-of-stroke deceleration across the 50-800 mm/s speed range. Since this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can fit CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for precise end-position detection.
Quick checklist
It generates 153.6 N of pull at 0.5 MPa and 236 N at 0.7 MPa. The force is net of the internal spring, and you must supply at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the spring and retract the rod.
The spring holds the rod extended by default; air pressure pulls it in, meaning it fails to the extended position on air loss. The CA back cover provides a rear pivot point, and the -S magnet allows CMSG or DMSG sensors to track its position.
