Airtac B52-MI Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MI10X100SU
The AirTAC Airtac B52-MI Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MI10X100SU is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 100mm 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 B52-MI Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MI10X100SU
The B52-MI10X100SU is the copper-free (copper-prohibited) version of AirTAC's MI10X100SU round-body mini cylinder, built for lines where copper and copper alloys are not permitted-such as ammonia systems and some battery, electronics, and chemical plants. It remains a double-acting, stainless-steel barrel and rod design that resists mild corrosion and washdown, with a compact riveted body that suits tight machine layouts.
At 0.5 MPa this 10 mm bore delivers 39.3 N push and 33 N pull, so plan for about 24 N of real work at that pressure rather than the full rating. The fixed TPU bumper pads soften stroke-end impact, while the -S piston magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for position sensing. The M5x0.8 port and ISO 6432 mounting interface let it drop into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises. For the exact material substitutions in the copper-free build, confirm with us.

Where the Airtac B52-MI Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MI10X100SU Is Used
Ammonia Refrigeration Lines
Use in ammonia-based cooling systems where copper-free construction is mandatory. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, while 39.3 N push at 0.5 MPa handles small damper or valve actuation tasks.
Battery Cell Assembly Jigs
Position small battery components in assembly fixtures where copper contamination is prohibited. The 33 N pull force at 0.5 MPa retracts light locating pins, and the -S magnet allows end-of-stroke confirmation via CMSG switches.
Pharmaceutical Blister Packaging
Actuate small pushers or guides on blister-pack lines where washdown resistance matters. The stainless build shrugs off mild cleaning agents, and the 100 mm stroke suits short indexing moves in compact stations.
Is the Airtac B52-MI Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MI10X100SU the Right Cylinder?
Size against the neighbours: the 8 MI gives 25.1 N push at 0.5 MPa if you need less force, while stepping up to 12 MI raises push to 56.5 N at 0.5 MPa. This 100 mm stroke sits within the 200 mm maximum standard stroke for 10, so no non-standard lead time applies. The U 90-degree rear cover orients the port for tight spaces, and the ISO 6432 interface accepts standard mini-cylinder foot, flange, pivot, and trunnion mounts.
Remember that a plain cylinder does not hold its load if air pressure is lost or the valve centres-the piston drifts, and the TPU bumpers only decelerate near stroke end. For a held position, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The -S magnet is present, so CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches can be fitted directly.
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 B52-MI Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MI10X100SU FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, push is 39.3 N and pull is 33 N. At 0.7 MPa, push rises to 55 N and pull to 46.1 N. Theoretical maximum force is 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa, with proof pressure at 1.5 MPa. Speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
B52- marks AirTAC's copper-free (copper-prohibited) build of the MI10X100SU, intended for lines where copper and copper alloys are not allowed, such as ammonia systems or certain battery and chemical plants. The exact material substitutions should be confirmed with us. The -S suffix means a built-in piston magnet is present, so CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches can be mounted for position sensing.
