About the Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X160U
Delivering 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder handles demanding actuation with a 160 mm stroke. The Ø25 bore uses a 1/8" port and a 10 mm rod. Its stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted alternatives in damp or washdown settings. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at stroke extremes, while the U-style back cover provides a 90-degree port orientation for tight layouts.
For practical sizing, plan for roughly 147 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which means it can safely lift about 12.5 kg vertically on a 2:1 margin. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position switches. The ISO 6432 mounting interface lets you drop it straight into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises.

Where the Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X160U Is Used
Package Diverting Gate
Swings a routing flap on a packaging line, using its 245.3 N thrust to push parcels firmly into the correct sorting lane.
Pallet Stopping Arm
Acts as a heavy-duty stopper for loaded pallets entering a stretch wrapper, absorbing the impact via fixed TPU bumper pads.
Textile Loom Tensioner
Maintains yarn tension on a weaving machine, where the stainless steel rod withstands the humid manufacturing environment.
Is the Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X160U the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 25 mm bore, the adjacent 20 mm option yields 157.0 N push while the larger 32 mm provides 402.2 N at 0.5 MPa, letting you step up or down if 245.3 N is slightly too much or too little. With a 160 mm stroke, keep an eye on side loading to avoid bending the 10 mm piston rod. This U-type rear cover mounts at 90 degrees, and you can pair the body with LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot or TC trunnion hardware.
Remember that a plain double-acting cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centred; the TPU bumpers only decelerate the end of travel and do not act as a brake. To suspend a load securely, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. If you need position feedback, select the -S magnet version to enable sensing.
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 MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X160U FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it provides 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it delivers 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This 25 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" air port.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. You must select the -S variant (MI25X160U-S) if you require position sensing. It uses fixed TPU bumper pads rather than an adjustable air cushion.
