The AirTAC Airtac MTG Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MTG25X25 is a genuine single acting, pull (spring return) JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 25mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a SUS304 stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
The AirTAC MTG25X25 is a single acting, spring-return PULL cylinder built to the JIS mini-cylinder footprint: a 25 mm bore and 25 mm stroke in a round SUS304 stainless barrel with a hard-chrome plated rod. Air on the 1/8" port retracts the rod with a net pull of about 133 N at 0.5 MPa and 215 N at 0.7 MPa; when air is removed the internal spring pushes the rod back out to its extended rest position. Because only one air line is needed, plumbing stays simple and the work stroke is always the powered pull.
Practical sizing: at a conservative 0.6 factor the 132.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa gives roughly 80 N of usable working force, about 8 kg of horizontal draw, or roughly 6 kg as a safe vertical load. The fixed anti-impact bumper pad softens the stroke ends but is not a lock or brake, so the cylinder will fail to the extended position on air loss. A magnet is not fitted on this non-S code, so no CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switch can be mounted unless you order the -S option.

| 0.7 MPa | 215.0 N |
Single-acting pull: the spring extends the rod; air retracts it. Forces already net the spring; minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa.

| ×25 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors. |
| FA / LB / CB / SDB | Mounting: FA flange, LB foot, CB clevis, SDB pivot bracket (with CB). |
MG-family variants: MG / MGC (double acting ±cushion), MSG / MTG (single acting push / pull), MGD / MGCD (double rod ±cushion). Accessories: LB foot, FA flange, CB clevis, SDB pivot block, plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G / NPT.
Air pulls the pin out of a fixture nest at about 133 N while the spring returns it to the extended, ready position the moment pressure drops.
A one-directional tensioning pull on film, tape or label web in packaging lines, with the spring taking up slack between strokes.
Pull a slide or shutter closed on a machine guard or chute gate; on air loss the spring reopens it to the safe extended state.
Choose the MTG25X25 when your motion is a one-way pull of 25 mm and the load sits near 80 N at 0.5 MPa; step up to MTG32 (about 225 N pull) or MTG40 (about 339 N) for heavier draws, or down to MTG20 (about 85 N) for light retraction. The spring return sets a 0.2 MPa (28 psi) minimum working pressure and caps the standard stroke at 150 mm for this bore; for two-way travel or longer strokes use the double-acting MG instead. Mounting options are LB foot, FA flange, CB clevis and SDB pivot, plus I and Y rod knuckles, with PT thread standard (G or NPT on request). Add the S code if you need CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position sensing.
Quick checklist
Net pull is 132.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 215 N at 0.7 MPa, already after the spring. Working pressure is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, air filtered to 40 um, speed 50-800 mm/s, and a temperature range of -20 to +70 C. The port is 1/8" and the rod is 10 mm with an M10x1.25 male thread.
The MTG is single acting PULL: air retracts the rod on the work stroke and the internal spring extends it back out, so it fails to the extended position on air loss. The MSG is the mirror-image single-acting PUSH type, and the MG is double acting with powered air in both directions. This non-S model has no magnet, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches require the -S option.
