The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X115SU is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 115mm stroke, M5×0.8 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.
Generating 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder handles a 115 mm stroke with ease. The Ø10 mm bore uses an M5x0.8 air port and an M4x0.7 male rod thread. Its stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, making it a superior choice over painted alternatives in damp or washdown environments. The riveted construction keeps the body compact and light.
Equipped with a built-in piston magnet, the unit supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches for position sensing. It conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, ensuring it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises. For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of about 24 N, which means it can lift roughly 2 kg vertically with a 2:1 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.
Pushes a lightweight routing gate with 39.3 N of force, utilizing the 115 mm stroke to clear the cutting area for automated board separation.
Actuates a small dosing valve in damp laboratory environments, relying on the stainless steel construction to withstand mild chemical washdown.
Diverts tiny plastic components on a conveyor, using the U-type back cover to fit the 90-degree porting neatly within a crowded control panel.
When sizing this actuator, consider the neighbouring bores: the smaller Ø8 generates 25.1 N of push, while the larger Ø12 provides 56.5 N at 0.5 MPa. This model includes a U-type back cover, orienting the port 90 degrees for tight spatial constraints. The included magnet enables direct sensor mounting, whereas a SKU without the S suffix cannot accept a switch. Because the 115 mm stroke is relatively long for a Ø10 bore, verify your guiding to prevent rod bending under side loads.
Remember that the fixed TPU bumper pads only decelerate the piston near the stroke end; they do not function as a lock. If your application must hold a load vertically when air pressure drops, the piston will drift. You should integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve to secure the payload safely.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder has an M5x0.8 port. It generates 39.3 N push and 33 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 55 N push and 46.1 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, it uses fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end rather than an adjustable air cushion. It includes a piston magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors and follows ISO 6432 mounting dimensions.
