The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI40X60SUTC is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 60mm 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 where smaller bores stall. The stainless-steel barrel and Ø16 mm rod shrug off mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted-steel alternatives in damp or washdown-prone environments. Because the Ø40 bore exceeds the ISO 6432 standard envelope, it is built strictly as a robust round-body unit rather than a drop-in mini bracket size. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the stroke-end impact to protect your mechanics, while the integrated piston magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.
For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of roughly 377 N rather than the absolute maximum, which translates to lifting about 32 kg vertically with a sensible 2:1 safety margin. The 1/4" port feeds air efficiently to maintain the 30-800 mm/s speed range, and the rear U-style 90-degree cover pairs with the TC trunnion accessory to handle pivoting loads smoothly.

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 knock heavy stamped metal parts out of a die, where the stainless build resists cutting fluid splash.
Swings via the TC trunnion mount to reroute heavy logistics pallets on a high-speed sorting line without risking side-load damage.
Holds industrial drum lids closed during filling, relying on the 527.8 N pull force at 0.5 MPa to secure the heavy cover securely.
When sizing this 40 mm bore, stepping down to the Ø32 model reduces the push force to 402.2 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas this Ø40 provides 628.3 N; since 40 is the largest available MI bore, moving beyond this capacity requires a different cylinder family entirely. The 60 mm stroke keeps the rod compact, minimizing side-load bending moments even under offset forces. Remember that venting the air supply causes the piston to drift, as the TPU bumpers only decelerate the end of travel rather than locking the rod; incorporate an external pilot-operated check valve if you need to freeze a load mid-stroke.
Quick checklist
This double-acting 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, increasing to 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, the fixed TPU bumper pads only decelerate the piston near the stroke end and do not act as a brake. If air is lost or the valve is centered, the rod will drift; for vertical loads, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
