Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X125CA
The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X125CA is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 125mm 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.

About the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X125CA
Delivering 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder handles compact linear actuation with a 125 mm stroke. The riveted barrel and Ø4 mm rod shrug off mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted alternatives in damp or washdown-prone environments. Because it adheres to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises without custom hardware.
Air enters through an M5x0.8 port to drive the piston across a 30-800 mm/s speed range, while fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at each stroke end. Plan for roughly 24 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which means it lifts about 2 kg vertically with a safe 2:1 margin. The rear CA pivot cover allows self-aligning rotation, and since this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position switches.

Where the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X125CA Is Used
Electronic Component Sorting
Pushes small PCBs or connectors down a testing lane using 39.3 N of force, with the stainless body surviving flux residue and occasional cleaning sprays.
Pouch Flap Tucking
Extends 125 mm to tuck packaging flaps on a vertical form-fill-seal machine, where the CA pivot absorbs slight misalignment during the downward arc.
Lab Sample Diverting
Actuates a lightweight diverter gate for specimen vials, safely moving roughly 2 kg of mass with a 2:1 vertical lift margin at 0.5 MPa.
Is the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X125CA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 10 mm bore, the smaller Ø8 version offers 25.1 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the Ø12 bore yields 56.5 N—choose the 12 mm if your friction or spring resistance exceeds 24 N of safe working load. The 125 mm stroke is well within the 200 mm standard limit for this bore, but at this extended length you should guide the load to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. A plain double-acting cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve centres; the TPU pads only decelerate the end of stroke and do not act as a lock, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve if you need to hold a vertical load. To mount it, pair the CA rear pivot with a matching clevis, or utilise the front foot/flange accessories, and note you must specify an -S variant if your control system requires magnetic sensing.
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 MI10X125CA FAQ
This double-acting cylinder uses an M5x0.8 air port and generates 39.3 N push / 33 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 55 N push / 46.1 N pull at 0.7 MPa. Its theoretical maximum force is 8 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 variant (e.g. MI10X125CA-S) to enable magnetic position sensing.
