The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X350U is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 350mm 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 linear motion tasks. The Ø25 mm bore operates on a 1/8" port, and the U-type back cover provides a 90-degree mounting orientation for compact installations. Its stainless barrel and piston rod resist mild corrosion, making it highly suitable for damp or washdown environments where painted steel alternatives would degrade.
Because the stroke extends to 350 mm, the Ø10 mm rod requires careful alignment to prevent side-loading and premature seal wear. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at both stroke ends, though they only decelerate the piston rather than providing an adjustable cushion. Plan for a safe working load of about 147 N, which lets you lift a 12.5 kg part vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors without upgrading to the -S variant.

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 90-degree routing flap on a packaging line, using the U-type rear cover to hinge cleanly alongside the belt structure.
Raises lightweight cardboard cartons weighing up to 12.5 kg to an upper tier, relying on the 245.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa for reliable elevation.
Pushes prepared specimens out of a damp testing chamber, leveraging the stainless-steel construction to resist humidity and chemical exposure.
When sizing this actuator, compare its 245.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa against the neighboring bores: a Ø20 mm bore provides 157.0 N, while a larger Ø32 mm bore offers 402.2 N. This model fits neatly in the middle for medium-duty tasks. The 350 mm stroke is well within the 500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, keeping the unit as a readily available configuration.
Keep in mind that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts if air pressure is lost or the control valve is centered, as the fixed bumpers only soften the end-of-stroke impact and act as neither a brake nor a lock. To suspend a load safely mid-stroke, you must integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve into your pneumatic circuit. Furthermore, because this SKU ships without a magnet, position sensing is impossible unless you specify the -S version for switch readiness.
Quick checklist
This Ø25 mm 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, increasing to 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the Ø25 mm bore adheres to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, allowing it to drop into standard mini-cylinder clevises and brackets. However, because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG magnetic switches.
