The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X450SR 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 long 450 mm strokes with a 1/8" air port. The riveted stainless barrel and Ø10 mm rod shrug off mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted alternatives in damp or washdown settings. A built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for position detection.
Because the 245.3 N rating leaves little room for friction, plan for roughly 147 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa. That translates to lifting about 12.5 kg vertically with a sensible 2:1 safety margin. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at stroke extremes, while the rear R cover features an axial-in port orientation to keep hose routing tidy in tight machinery.

Uses the 245.3 N thrust at 0.5 MPa to push heavy cardboard cartons cleanly across a 450 mm transfer gap onto a secondary packaging line.
Lifts approximately 12.5 kg tote bins up a 450 mm vertical rise, relying on the stainless build to endure humid warehouse environments.
Extends a 450 mm barrier to reroute metal stampings on a conveyor, using CMSG sensors to confirm gate position before parts arrive.
When sizing this 25 mm bore, the smaller Ø20 generates 157.0 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the non-ISO Ø32 yields 402.2 N. This model uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface, so it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder foot, flange, or trunnion brackets. For a 450 mm extension, mind the side-load risk; keep the rod guided to prevent bending.
Remember that venting the air or centering the 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 mid-cycle, fit an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
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, 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. To hold a load, use an external rod lock or pilot check valve. The -S magnet allows position sensing.
