The AirTAC Airtac MID Series Double Rod Mini Cylinder MID25X125S is a genuine double acting, double rod round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 125mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments. Its ISO 6432 mounting interface makes it a compact drop-in for standard mini-cylinder fixtures.
Delivering 206.1 N of equal thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless steel mini cylinder uses a through-rod design that resists rotation and handles side loads without an external guide. Because a Ø10 mm rod exits both end covers of the Ø25 mm barrel, the extend and retract faces share the exact same rod-side area. The rear rod end remains exposed to trip a switch, carry a stop flag, or drive a secondary load. Its riveted round-body construction shrugs off mild corrosion and washdown environments.
It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for easy bracket swaps, uses a 1/8" port, and travels 125 mm at speeds between 30 and 800 mm/s. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches for position sensing. Based on the 0.5 MPa output, you get a safe working load around 124 N, which means it can vertically lift roughly 10.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Fixed TPU bumper pads soften the stroke endpoints.

Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used).

MI-family variants: MI / MIC (double acting ±cushion), MSI / MTI (single acting push / pull), MID / MICD (double rod ±cushion), MIJ / MICJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / R / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Pushes a 10 kg workpiece carriage equally well in both directions, using the through-rod to maintain steady guidance without twisting.
Drives a primary 124 N assembly press load forward while the rear rod end trips a physical flag or external limit switch on the return.
Actuates a routing flap in damp packaging lines where the stainless barrel resists mild corrosion and the twin rod prevents binding.
If you need less push, the MID20 bore provides 131.9 N at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the MID32 yields 345.6 N. The twin-rod architecture is ideal when you need anti-rotation stability, a back-rod mechanical stop, or symmetric shuttle movements. For mounting, choose LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers (the SDB pivot block is not offered on this variant). The -S magnet pairs directly with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
Remember that fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end; they do not lock the piston. If air pressure drops, the cylinder drifts. To hold a load securely during air loss or valve centering, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
It delivers equal force both ways because the double-rod design uses the rod-side area on both faces. It outputs 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa, 288.5 N at 0.7 MPa, and reaches a maximum theoretical force of 42.0 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet, allowing you to mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches along the groove. The stainless steel round-body build also provides excellent mild corrosion resistance for washdown settings.
