About the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X100CA
Delivering 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder handles compact linear motion tasks. The 10 mm bore pairs with a 100 mm stroke and an M5x0.8 air port. Its stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, giving it an edge over painted alternatives in damp or washdown environments. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb impact at the stroke ends, decelerating the piston smoothly.
Because it conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, the body drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises. For practical sizing, plan for about 24 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which means it lifts roughly 2 kg vertically with a safe 2:1 margin. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors without switching to an -S variant.

Where the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X100CA Is Used
Gate Diverters
Pushes lightweight sorting flaps on conveyor lines using its 39.3 N thrust and CA pivot rear to accommodate the swinging mechanism.
Film Feed Tensioning
Tracks a 100 mm stroke to maintain tension on thin packaging film webs without tearing, leveraging the smooth stainless rod.
Lab Sample Ejection
Ejects small plastic vials from a testing carousel, where the stainless build resists humidity and chemical wipe-downs.
Is the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X100CA the Right Cylinder?
If 39.3 N is excessive for your fixture, step down to the 8 mm bore (25.1 N push); if you need more authority, the 12 mm bore yields 56.5 N. The CA rear pivot cover suits articulated or clevis-mounted linkages. Remember that venting the air supply causes the piston to drift, as the TPU bumpers only soften end-of-stroke impacts rather than locking the rod. For suspended loads, install an external pilot check valve.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X100CA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 39.3 N and pulls 33 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 55 N and pulls 46.1 N. The theoretical maximum force is 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is M5x0.8.
No, this specific SKU lacks the internal magnet required for switches. You must select the -S magnet variant to use CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. It uses an ISO 6432 mounting interface and a CA clevis back cover.
