The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI25X50SR 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 robust actuation tasks. The Ø25 mm bore uses a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. Its stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted alternatives in damp or washdown environments. The riveted construction keeps the body compact, while fixed TPU bumper pads absorb stroke-end impact.
Because the -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet, this model is ready for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches. For real work at 0.5 MPa, plan for roughly 147 N of usable load. In vertical lifting, that translates to safely raising about 12.5 kg with a 2:1 margin. The R back cover features an axial-in port orientation, simplifying plumbing in tight 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 onto a secondary belt at speed.
Maintains tension on yarn guides in humid textile facilities where the stainless steel rod prevents mild corrosion.
Deploys a 50 mm stroke stop block to halt incoming pallets, relying on the fixed TPU pads to soften the impact.
When sizing this bore, stepping down to a Ø20 mm unit drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 157.0 N, whereas moving up to a Ø32 mm bore increases it to 402.2 N. If your application loses air or the valve centres, this cylinder will drift and cannot hold position; the TPU pads only decelerate the end of stroke. To lock a load, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The Ø25 mm dimensions conform to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, so it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises. You can also utilise LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion mounts.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it yields 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This Ø25 mm bore uses a 1/8" air port.
Yes, the -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. However, it does not hold position if air is lost; the piston drifts. For load holding, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
