MBB Series vs. Standard Cylinders | Core Differences
MBB series is compact end lock type standard cylinder, engineered for enhanced safety and adaptability, standing out from general standard cylinders (SC/ISO15552/basic MB) in core performance and structural design. Ideal for industrial automation with strict safety and space requirements, here’s the key comparison for quick selection:
Core Advantages of MBB Series
✅ Integrated End Lock Safety: Locks piston instantly on air cut-off to prevent vertical load falling, a critical feature missing in regular standard cylinders.
✅ Compact & Lightweight: Square tie-rod end cap design, 10% lighter and shorter for the same bore than ISO15552/SC, perfect for limited installation space.
✅ Superior Cushioning: Dual air + rubber cushioning, 30% higher kinetic energy absorption for stable, low-noise operation (no harsh impact vs. single cushion of ordinary cylinders).
✅ Flexible Installation: 4-sided magnetic switch mounting, pre-configurable rod end/oscillating brackets, multi-directional installation supported (no special bracket needed vs. SC).
✅ Enhanced Sealing: Oil-storage piston seal for long service life; optional 150�� high-temperature seal (custom-only for general cylinders).
General Standard Cylinders (SC/ISO15552)
🔹 Basic single-rod double-acting design, round end cap (SC) / standard round structure (ISO15552), no end lock function.
🔹 Conventional dimensions, longer overall length and heavier weight for the same bore.
🔹 Simple rubber/single air cushioning (partial no adjustable cushion), average shock absorption.
🔹 Limited installation adaptability: special brackets for SC, fewer magnetic switch mounting positions.
🔹 Universal sealing only, high-temperature version needs separate customization.
Quick Selection Guide
Choose MBB Series: Vertical load applications, air cut-off anti-falling demand, compact space, high cushioning/installation flexibility needs.
Choose General Standard Cylinders: Universal pushing/pulling/lifting, no safety lock requirement, cost-sensitive general industrial scenarios.
All MBB series are compatible with SMC original accessories, with magnetic ring optional (MDBB) for position detection—reliable for automated production lines, lifting equipment, and precision machinery.
The MB series medium duty tie rod cylinder offers an improved design that enhances cylinder operation and ease of use. The standard air cushion utilizes a floating cushion seal to eliminate piston rod bouncing. The cushion volume has been elevated permitting about 30% more allowable kinetic energy absorption. The port and captive cushion adjustment valve are located on the same side of cap for heightened access. The MB series is available with many standard options, which include stroke adjustment,tandem, high/low temperature seals, heavy rod scraper, non-rotating rod,double rod and many more.
