Airtac B01-MIC Dedicated Cylinder B01-MIC16X80CA
The AirTAC Airtac B01-MIC Dedicated Cylinder B01-MIC16X80CA is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 80mm stroke, M5×0.8 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.

About the Airtac B01-MIC Dedicated Cylinder B01-MIC16X80CA
The B01- prefix designates this as an AirTAC application-dedicated, customer-specified variant of the MIC16X80CA, mechanically identical to the standard model. It features a 16mm bore, 80mm stroke, and a CA rear pivot cover, delivering 100.5N of push force at 0.5 MPa. A needle-set adjustable air cushion at both ends absorbs high-speed end-of-stroke shock, reducing noise and protecting the payload better than a fixed bumper.
Built as a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder, it resists mild corrosion and uses an M5×0.8 port with an M6x1.0 male rod thread. Conforming to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, it drops into standard mini brackets. Based on the 0.5 MPa push rating, it handles a safe working load of about 60N, lifting roughly 5.1kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.

Where the Airtac B01-MIC Dedicated Cylinder B01-MIC16X80CA Is Used
Light-Duty Pick & Place
Ideal for moving small electronic components where the 60N safe working load prevents part damage, while the adjustable air cushion ensures gentle stops at 800 mm/s.
Carton Flap Folding
Uses the 80mm stroke to fold light packaging flaps rapidly; the CA pivot absorbs frame misalignment and the needle cushion prevents jarring at stroke end.
Lab Sample Sorting
The stainless round-body construction resists mild washdown in lab environments, and the 5.1kg vertical lift capacity easily handles tube racks on a conveyor.
Is the Airtac B01-MIC Dedicated Cylinder B01-MIC16X80CA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing, stepping down drops you into the MI bumper-only line, losing the adjustable cushion. Stepping up to the MIC20 yields 157N of push force at 0.5 MPa, nearly a 60% increase. This 16mm bore is ideal when you need ISO 6432 interchangeability and light-force cushioning. The air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it is not a brake. If you must prevent drift on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
This CA-cover model provides a rear pivot for angular alignment. Because this specific SKU has no -S magnet, position sensing is impossible without switching to the -S variant. You can pair it with LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion mounts depending on your frame.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B01-MIC Dedicated Cylinder B01-MIC16X80CA FAQ
It generates 100.5N push and 86.4N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 140.7N push / 120.9N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses an M5×0.8 air port and a 6mm piston rod with an M6x1.0 male thread.
The B01- prefix marks it as an application-dedicated variant of the MIC16X80CA, sharing the exact same stainless-steel build, adjustable air cushion, and CA pivot cover. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic sensors; you must select the -S version for position sensing.
