The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X125SCA is a genuine double acting 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 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder handles robust linear motion tasks. The Ø25 mm bore uses a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. Its stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted-steel or aluminium minis in damp, food or outdoor spots. The riveted round body is compact, and fixed TPU bumper pads soften the stroke-end impact by decelerating the piston without adjustable cushioning.
Because the -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet, this unit is fully ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position switches. For sizing a task, plan for about 147 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which means it lifts about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The CA back cover provides an integrated pivot clevis for articulated mounting. It also conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for bores Ø8-Ø25, dropping directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises.

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.
Swings a lightweight sorting gate on a packaging line, using the 245.3 N thrust and CA pivot clevis to handle repetitive routing of cardboard cartons.
Maintains consistent yarn tension in a humid textile facility, relying on the stainless steel construction to resist moisture and mild corrosion.
Extends 125 mm to press an adhesive label onto palletized goods, using the CMSG sensor magnet to confirm the stroke end for the control system.
When sizing this actuator, note the smaller Ø20 bore provides 157.0 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while the larger non-ISO Ø32 bore jumps to 402.2 N. If your application loses air or the valve is centred, the piston will drift; the TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end and never act as a lock or brake. To hold a load securely, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. For this 125 mm stroke, minimize side-loading to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear. The CA rear clevis pairs with LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot or TC trunnion front options for versatile alignment.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder has a 1/8" port and generates 245.3 N push / 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 343.4 N push / 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the piston drifts if air is lost or the valve is centred; the fixed TPU bumper pads only decelerate the stroke end and do not function as a lock or brake. Use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding.
