The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X50CA is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 50mm 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 in compact spaces. The Ø25 bore conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, dropping directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises for easy design integration. Its riveted stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, offering a real advantage over painted alternatives in damp or washdown environments.
Equipped with fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end, it operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s. For practical sizing, plan for roughly 147 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 12.5 kg vertically with a safe 2:1 margin. The 1/8" port and M10x1.25 male rod thread are fixed by the bore. This specific CA back cover variant features a rear pivot clevis, while the lack of a -S suffix means it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG magnetic sensors.

Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

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.
Drives a pivot gate on a packaging line, using the CA clevis to swing 12.5 kg components cleanly into a secondary lane.
Stainless construction survives damp laboratory environments, pushing a rinse nozzle with 147 N of safe working force.
Maintains thread tension via the rear pivot mount, cycling rapidly within the 30-800 mm/s range without tie-rod bulk.
When sizing this 50 mm stroke model, verify your force needs: the Ø20 bore below provides 157.0 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas the Ø32 above jumps to 402.2 N. If your application loses air or the valve centres, this plain cylinder will drift and cannot hold position—the TPU pads only soften the end of travel, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for secure load holding.
The built-in CA rear pivot clevis suits angular movement, complemented by standard LB, FA, SDB and TC mounts. Because this SKU lacks a magnet, position sensing is impossible here; order the -S variant to enable CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. At 50 mm, side-load risks are minimal, but ensure the pivot absorbs any rod-bending stress.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 343.4 N and pulls 288.5 N. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This Ø25 bore uses a 1/8" air port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread.
No, this specific SKU lacks the internal magnet, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches will not function. You must select the -S magnet variant for position sensing. It uses fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate, not an adjustable air cushion.
