The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X50R 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 a compact footprint. The Ø25 mm bore uses a 1/8 inch port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. Its stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted-steel alternatives in damp or washdown environments.
The riveted construction keeps the body light, while fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the piston at stroke ends. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position switches. For real-world sizing, plan for about 147 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which means it lifts roughly 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The rear R cover provides an axial-in port orientation for tight mounting spaces.

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 routing flap on a packaging line, using the 245.3 N thrust to push heavy cartons smoothly into secondary lanes.
Secures aluminium extrusions during a CNC cutting process, applying reliable clamping force before the saw descends.
Functions as a pneumatic stop in a roller conveyor system, holding loaded pallets in place for wrapping or inspection.
When sizing this 50 mm stroke unit, the neighbouring Ø20 bore offers 157.0 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the Ø32 yields 402.2 N. This model hits a strong middle ground for 12.5 kg vertical lifts. The ISO 6432 mounting interface on this Ø25 bore drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises, and you can pair it with LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot or TC trunnion hardware. If your application needs position feedback, select the -S magnet variant instead, as this base unit cannot host a sensor.
Remember that a plain double-acting cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centred; the TPU bumpers only soften the stroke end and do not act as a brake. To suspend a load safely, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. At 50 mm, side-load stress on the Ø10 mm rod is minimal, but always verify alignment to prevent premature seal wear.
Quick checklist
This Ø25 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8 inch port. 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 force of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the Ø25 bore uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface, so it fits standard mini-cylinder clevises and brackets like LB, FA, SDB and TC. However, because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
