The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X175SU 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 robust actuation tasks. The Ø25 mm bore operates on a 1/8" port, and the 175 mm stroke falls well within the 500 mm standard limit. Its riveted stainless barrel and rod shrug off mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted alternatives in damp or washdown settings. Because the bore is Ø25, it uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface, dropping directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises.
The U-type back cover provides a 90-degree port orientation for tight machinery layouts. Plan for roughly 147 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which means it lifts about 12.5 kg vertically with a safe 2:1 margin. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the end-of-stroke impact. This SKU includes the -S magnet, so you can mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for position sensing.

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.
Actuates a routing flap on a packaging line, using the 245.3 N thrust to push parcels smoothly onto secondary chutes.
Presses small bearings into housings on an assembly fixture, relying on the 175 mm stroke to reach deep into the work area.
Raises fluid test racks out of a washdown bath, where the stainless rod resists mild chemical corrosion during repeated cycles.
When sizing this 245.3 N (0.5 MPa) unit, dropping down to a Ø20 bore reduces thrust to 157.0 N, while stepping up to a Ø32 bore yields 402.2 N. The 175 mm stroke is standard, but long rods invite side-load bending, so ensure your load is guided to prevent premature seal wear. The U back cover dictates a 90-degree rear port orientation.
Remember that venting or losing air pressure lets the piston drift, as the TPU pads only decelerate the stroke end rather than locking the rod. For suspended loads, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. You can mount this unit via LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot or TC trunnion hardware.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 245.3 N and pulls with 206.1 N. At 0.7 MPa the push is 343.4 N and the pull is 288.5 N. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port size is 1/8".
Yes, the -S suffix means it has a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. It does not hold position on air loss; the piston drifts, and the fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end. Use a pilot check valve for load holding.
