The AirTAC Airtac MID Series Double Rod Mini Cylinder MID25X25S is a genuine double acting, double rod round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 25mm 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 Newtons of equal thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, this AirTAC MID25X25S is a double-acting, through-rod mini cylinder. Because a Ø10 mm piston rod exits both end covers of the stainless-steel round body, the extend and retract areas are identical, completely cancelling rotational twist and absorbing side loads without needing an external guide. The rear rod end remains exposed and free to trip a limit switch or push a secondary load. Built with a riveted stainless barrel and rod, it withstands mild washdowns and corrosion.
It uses the ISO 6432 mini-cylinder mounting interface for easy bracket drops, features a 1/8" port, and travels a short 25 mm stroke at speeds between 30 and 800 mm/s. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is installed for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. For sizing, a safe working load is roughly 124 N, which means it can vertically lift about 10.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MI/MIC (ISO 6432) datasheet. Barrel & rod: stainless steel (round-body, riveted construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G.
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 42 kgf |
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.
Ideal for moving small parts between stations, using the equal 206.1 N force to push and pull a carrier smoothly without twisting.
The extended rear rod physically trips a CMSG or DMSG sensor at 25 mm, giving a precise mechanical confirmation of the stroke end.
Raises roughly 10.5 kg loads vertically, where the twin through-rod keeps the payload steady and prevents side-load binding.
If you need less push, the MID20X25S offers 131.9 N at 0.5 MPa; if you need more, the larger non-ISO MID32X25S provides 345.6 N. Choose this Ø25 bore when your mechanism requires symmetric force, anti-rotation stability, or a back-rod stop. The fixed TPU bumpers soften the stroke ends but do not lock the piston. If air pressure drops, the load will drift, so add an external pilot check valve for position holding. You can mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion, but the SDB pivot block is not compatible with this double-rod design.
Quick checklist
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the force is equal both ways. It delivers 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa, 288.5 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical force of 42.0 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The double through-rod resists rotation under side load and leaves the back rod end free to drive a second load or trip a switch.
