The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI40X300SUTC is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 300mm 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, the AirTAC MI40X300SUTC is a robust double-acting round-body mini cylinder built for demanding automation. Its stainless-steel barrel and Ø16 mm rod shrug off mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted alternatives in damp washdown environments. The riveted construction keeps the unit compact while fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at stroke end. Because this is a Ø40 bore, it uses a 1/4" port and falls outside the ISO 6432 mounting standard, operating purely as a heavy-duty round-body solution.
For practical sizing, plan for about 377 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which safely lifts roughly 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for position sensing. A 90-degree U back cover and TC trunnion mount provide flexible pivot installation for your 300 mm stroke requirements.

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.

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.
Uses the 628.3 N push force to deflect heavy cartons on a washdown-grade stainless conveyor line, where the riveted round body resists moisture.
Moves a 300 mm stroke to lower a small pressing platen, relying on the fixed TPU bumper pads to soften the impact at the bottom of the cycle.
Employs the TC trunnion and 90-degree U back cover to swing a heavy security gate on a pallet wrapper, safely lifting components around 32 kg.
When sizing this 40 mm bore, compare its 628.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa against the smaller Ø32 bore, which provides 402.2 N. If you need more power, note that Ø40 is the largest available in this MI series. The 300 mm stroke is well within the 500 mm maximum standard stroke, meaning no made-to-order modifications are required.
Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air is removed or a valve is centered, as the fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end without locking the piston. To suspend a load safely mid-stroke, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The included TC trunnion pairs with the U back cover to handle angular misalignment on long strokes, reducing side-load stress on the rod.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder uses a 1/4" port and generates 628.3 N push / 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 879.6 N push / 738.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the base MI features fixed TPU bumper pads that decelerate the stroke end, not an adjustable air cushion (see the MIC variant for that). However, the -S magnet allows you to mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for electronic position sensing.
