The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X175SCM is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 175mm 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 substantial work within a compact footprint. The Ø25 bore operates on a 1/8" port and integrates a built-in piston magnet for position sensing. Its riveted stainless barrel and rod naturally resist mild corrosion, offering a distinct advantage over painted alternatives in damp or washdown settings.
The 175 mm stroke falls well within the 500 mm maximum, while fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at stroke extremes. For practical sizing, plan for roughly 147 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 12.5 kg vertically with a safe 2:1 margin. The CM round end rear cover completes the assembly, and the -S magnet enables direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.

Pushes heavy cardboard cartons onto auxiliary lanes at 245.3 N push force, utilizing the 175 mm stroke to clear the main conveyor belt path entirely.
Ejects processed specimen trays from testing centrifuges; the stainless build withstands daily chemical washdowns without corroding.
Actuates a pivoting lever to separate metal stampings by weight, relying on the CMSG sensor signal to confirm full extension every cycle.
When sizing this unit, the neighboring Ø20 bore yields 157.0 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the Ø32 provides 402.2 N, making this Ø25 the middle ground for loads needing around 245 N. Because the 175 mm stroke extends the Ø10 piston rod significantly, ensure your mounting configuration avoids excessive side loading to prevent rod bending. The ISO 6432 mounting interface means it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises.
Note that a standard actuator like this will drift if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered, as the fixed bumpers only decelerate the end of travel rather than locking the load. To suspend a load safely, incorporate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve into your pneumatic circuit.
Quick checklist
This Ø25 bore cylinder features a 1/8" port and a male M10x1.25 rod thread. It generates 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the piston will drift if air is removed or the valve is centered. The fixed TPU bumper pads only decelerate the rod near the stroke end; they do not function as a brake. For holding a suspended load, you must install an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
