The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X175U 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 demanding actuation. The 25 mm bore and 175 mm stroke use a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. Its riveted stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, outperforming painted alternatives in damp or washdown settings. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb stroke-end impact without adjustable cushioning.
Plan for roughly 147 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa to maintain a safe margin, which translates to lifting about 12.5 kg vertically. The U-style rear cover provides a 90-degree mounting orientation for tight spaces. Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors without upgrading to the -S variant.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

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 heavy cartons onto secondary tracks at 90 degrees via the U cover.
Deploys a physical stop block for incoming pallets, safely halting loads up to 12.5 kg on a gravity roller conveyor before downstream processing.
Drives a mechanical pin into an aluminum housing on an assembly fixture, relying on the fixed TPU pads to soften the 175 mm stroke endpoint.
Sizing hinges on your force requirements: the smaller Ø20 bore yields 157.0 N push, while the larger Ø32 provides 402.2 N at 0.5 MPa. This Ø25 model sits perfectly in between. Note that a standard cylinder drifts if air pressure drops or the valve centers, as the TPU pads only decelerate the end of travel rather than locking the rod; add an external pilot check valve for suspended loads.
The 175 mm stroke is well within the 500 mm maximum, though side loads on the extended rod should be minimized to prevent bending. It accepts LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion brackets. For higher cycle speeds requiring adjustable air cushioning, consider the MIC variant.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is 1/8".
No, this specific SKU lacks an internal piston magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must select the -S magnet variant for sensor compatibility. The unit also conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions for Ø25 bores.
