About the Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X280CA
Delivering 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder handles robust actuation tasks with ease. The 25 mm bore uses a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread, while the rear CA clevis bracket provides a solid pivot point for angular movement. Its rolled and riveted stainless barrel and rod naturally resist mild corrosion, outperforming painted alternatives in damp or washdown settings.
At 0.5 MPa, you can plan for roughly 147 N of actual work, which translates to lifting about 12.5 kg vertically with a safe 2:1 margin. The 280 mm stroke falls well within the 500 mm standard limit, and fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at stroke ends. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.

Where the Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X280CA Is Used
Package Diverting Gate
Pivots a sorting arm via the CA clevis to push parcels weighing up to 12 kg off a main packaging line at 0.5 MPa.
Textile Loom Tensioner
Uses the 280 mm stroke to position a yarn guide bar, relying on the stainless build to endure humid manufacturing environments.
Welding Fixture Clamp
Extends to hold steel plates in place for robotic welding, utilizing the 245.3 N push force to secure the workpiece firmly.
Is the Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X280CA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 25 mm bore, the smaller Ø20 generates 157 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the Ø32 yields 402 N. If your mechanism loses air or the valve centres, the piston will drift; the bumpers only decelerate the end of travel, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for strict load holding. Over the 280 mm extension, minimize side-loading to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear. Should your application require position feedback, select the -S magnet variant to enable switch mounting.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X280CA FAQ
This 25 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 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, this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches cannot be used. You would need the -S variant for position sensing. The unit uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface and fixed TPU bumper pads rather than an adjustable cushion.
