The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X125SU 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.
Generating 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel mini cylinder handles compact linear motion with a 125 mm stroke. The riveted round body uses a Ø4 mm piston rod and an M5x0.8 port, while fixed TPU bumper pads absorb end-of-stroke impacts. Because the bore is Ø10 mm, it conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, dropping directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises for easy design integration.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, making it superior to painted alternatives in damp or washdown environments. For practical sizing, plan for roughly 24 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 2 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches, and the U back cover provides a 90-degree port orientation for tight spaces.

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 small PCBs or microchips along a conveyor with 39.3 N force, using the 125 mm stroke to clear the work area completely.
Extends 125 mm to guide thin plastic films into sealing jaws, where the stainless body withstands occasional washdown spray.
Ejects lightweight moulded plastic parts from a tool, lifting about 2 kg safely while the U cover keeps air lines tucked away.
When sizing this 10 mm bore, compare it against adjacent options: the Ø8 generates 25.1 N push, whereas the Ø12 provides 56.5 N at 0.5 MPa. If your application loses air or the valve centres, this cylinder will drift and cannot hold position—the bumper pads only decelerate the stroke end, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for secure load holding. The 125 mm stroke is well within the 200 mm standard maximum, but long strokes increase rod bending susceptibility; ensure lateral loads are minimised. The U rear cover offers a 90-degree mounting setup, and the -S magnet enables position sensing.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder has an M5x0.8 port and a Ø4 mm rod. 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.
Yes, the -S suffix means it has a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches. It uses fixed TPU bumper pads that decelerate the piston at stroke end; it does not feature an adjustable air cushion.
