The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI40X275CM is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 275mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Delivering 628.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting round-body mini cylinder handles heavy-duty actuation with a 275 mm stroke. The stainless-steel barrel and Ø16 mm piston rod shrug off mild corrosion, making it highly reliable in damp or washdown-prone environments compared to painted alternatives. A 1/4" port supplies air to the CM round-end rear cover, while fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at stroke extremes without offering adjustable cushioning.
Plan for roughly 377 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa to maintain a safe margin, which translates to lifting about 32 kg vertically. Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors; you would need the -S variant for position detection. The riveted construction remains compact despite the high 128.1 kgf theoretical maximum force available at 1.0 MPa.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MI/MIC (ISO 6432) datasheet. Barrel & rod: stainless steel (round-body, riveted construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G. Note: the Ø40 bore is a larger, non-ISO-6432 size.

|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

| ×275 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors. |
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.
Pushes metal blanks into a progressive die with 628.3 N of force, utilizing the 275 mm stroke to clear the press bed safely.
Diverts dense cartons on a logistics line, where the stainless build survives occasional washdowns and the fixed TPU pads absorb transit impacts.
Ejects assembled industrial parts from a palletizing station, lifting up to 32 kg safely while handling the 275 mm transfer distance.
When sizing this 40 mm bore, compare its 628.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa against the 402.2 N supplied by the smaller Ø32 model, noting that Ø40 is the largest available MI size. If your payload requires holding position during air loss or valve centering, remember that a plain cylinder drifts and the TPU bumpers only decelerate the end of travel rather than acting as a brake. You must fit an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve for secure load holding. The CM round-end back cover suits specific rear mounting orientations, and the 275 mm stroke necessitates checking for side-load forces to prevent rod bending.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" air port and an M12x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. You must select the -S magnet variant for position sensing. It is a non-ISO-6432 round-body mini cylinder with fixed TPU bumper pads, not adjustable air cushions.
