Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X130SU
The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X130SU is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 130mm 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 MI10X130SU
Generating 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel mini cylinder handles precise 130 mm linear movements. The Ø10 mm bore operates on an M5x0.8 air port and features a U-type back cover that positions the port 90 degrees to the body for tight manifold routing. Built with a riveted round barrel and piston rod, the stainless construction resists mild corrosion better than painted alternatives in damp production areas.
The unit conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, dropping directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises to simplify spares. A built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for end-of-stroke confirmation. Plan for roughly 24 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 2 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the end-of-stroke impact without adding bulk.

Where the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X130SU Is Used
PCB Probe Ejection
Cycles test fixtures to push populated circuit boards out of a socket, using the 39.3 N output to overcome friction without damaging delicate traces.
Carton Flap Folding
Swings small cardboard flaps into position on a packaging line prior to taping, where the 130 mm stroke and 90-degree U cover fit neatly inside narrow frame gaps.
Lab Sample Diverting
Actuates a diverter gate to route vials on a conveyor, relying on the stainless body to endure frequent wipe-downs in humid laboratory environments.
Is the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X130SU the Right Cylinder?
If 39.3 N is excessive for your fixture, the smaller Ø8 bore offers 25.1 N; if you need more power, stepping up to the Ø12 bore provides 56.5 N at 0.5 MPa. This 130 mm stroke sits well within the 200 mm standard limit for the Ø10 bore, though extending a thin 4 mm rod over long distances increases side-load sensitivity, so ensure rigid guidance. The U-type rear cover suits pivot or side-mount installations.
Because the standard TPU bumpers only decelerate the piston near the stroke end, the rod will drift if air pressure drops or the valve is centred. For vertical or gravity-loaded assemblies that must hold position during an air loss event, incorporate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve into the pneumatic circuit.
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 MI10X130SU FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it provides 39.3 N push and 33 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it yields 55 N push and 46.1 N pull. The theoretical maximum is 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is M5x0.8.
It uses a U-type back cover for 90-degree port and pivot orientation. It cannot hold a load unpowered; the piston drifts on air loss and the fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end. Add a pilot check valve for holding.
