The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X450R is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 450mm 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 substantial work within a compact footprint. The Ø25 mm bore uses a 1/8 inch port and a 10 mm piston rod with an M10x1.25 male thread. Its stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted-steel or aluminium minis in damp, food, or outdoor environments. The riveted construction keeps the unit light, while fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at stroke end.
For practical sizing, plan for about 147 N of real work at 0.5 MPa rather than the absolute maximum rating. This translates to lifting roughly 12.5 kg vertically with a safe 2:1 margin, letting you match the cylinder to actual part weights. The rear R cover features an axial-in port orientation for neat tubing routing. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches.

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 sorting gate on a packaging line, using the 245.3 N thrust to push parcels firmly onto secondary chutes.
Applies downward clamping pressure for assembling small housings, relying on the 450 mm stroke to clear tall parts during loading.
Raises empty storage totes from a lower conveyor tier, safely lifting loads around 12.5 kg before sliding them onto a roller bed.
When sizing this 25 mm bore, the adjacent 20 mm option yields 157.0 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the 32 mm bore provides 402.2 N. The 450 mm stroke sits well within the 500 mm standard limit for this bore, though at this extended length you should carefully manage side loading to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear. The ISO 6432 mounting interface means it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets, foot mounts (LB), flanges (FA), or TC trunnions.
Remember that fixed TPU pads only decelerate the piston near the end of travel; they do not act as a lock. If air pressure drops or the valve is centred, the rod will drift and drop the load. To maintain position vertically, incorporate an external pilot-operated check valve or a dedicated rod lock.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8 inch port and generates 245.3 N push / 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 343.4 N push / 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This specific SKU does not have a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches; you need the -S variant for sensing. The R back cover provides an axial-in port orientation for straight rear tubing.
