The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X275SCA is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 275mm 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 275 mm stroke tasks. The Ø25 bore uses a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. 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 without adding bulk.
The built-in -S piston magnet supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for position sensing, while the CA rear pivot cover simplifies clevis mounting. Plan for roughly 147 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa to ensure smooth cycling. This translates to lifting about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin, helping you match the cylinder to real part weights.

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.
Swings a heavy routing flap on a packaging line using the CA clevis, easily handling the 12.5 kg vertical gate mass within its safe working load.
Maintains consistent fabric tension across a 275 mm travel path, relying on the 206.1 N pull force at 0.5 MPa to keep strands taut.
Pushes sample trays into a testing chamber, where the stainless steel construction survives frequent wipe-downs and chemical splashes.
When sizing this 245.3 N (0.5 MPa) unit, the smaller Ø20 bore provides 157.0 N, whereas stepping up to the non-ISO Ø32 yields 402.2 N. The 275 mm stroke is well within the 500 mm maximum, but at this extension you must account for rod bending and side-load limits to prevent premature seal wear. The CA back cover supplies a robust pivot point for swinging mechanisms.
Remember that venting the air supply or centering the control valve causes the piston to drift, as the TPU pads only soften the end-of-stroke impact rather than locking the rod. To suspend a load safely, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The -S magnet enables electronic or reed sensors, whereas a standard SKU cannot accept them.
Quick checklist
This Ø25 bore cylinder features a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the piston will drift if air is lost or the valve is centered. The fixed TPU bumper pads only decelerate the stroke end and do not act as a brake. You must add an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load.
