The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X220SU is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 220mm 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 mini cylinder handles substantial work within a compact riveted round body. The 25 mm bore pairs with a 10 mm rod and 1/8" port to move loads efficiently, while the built-in piston magnet enables CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for position sensing. Its stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted alternatives in damp or washdown environments.
Because the 220 mm stroke moves a mass over distance, the fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the end-of-travel impact to protect the mechanism. For practical sizing, plan for about 147 N of real work at 0.5 MPa rather than the absolute maximum, which equates to lifting roughly 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The rear U cover provides a 90-degree port orientation to simplify plumbing in tight spaces.

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 N push force to redirect heavy cartons at high speed.
Pushes bearings into housings on an assembly fixture, relying on the 220 mm stroke to reach deep into the machine bed.
Extends a stop block on a roller conveyor to halt pallets, with the stainless build surviving dusty industrial environments.
When sizing this 25 mm bore, stepping down to a 20 mm cylinder drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N, whereas moving up to a 32 mm bore increases it to 402 N. Match your choice to the actual load and required speed. Remember that a standard cylinder drifts if air pressure drops or the valve is centred; the bumper pads only decelerate the stroke end and do not act as a lock. If your application must hold a vertical load securely, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
The 220 mm stroke demands attention to side loading. Ensure the rod guides and load are aligned precisely to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear. This SKU includes the -S magnet for sensors and uses the U back cover for 90-degree mounting.
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, it uses fixed TPU bumper pads that decelerate the piston at the stroke end. It is not an adjustable air cushion model. The -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for position feedback.
