The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X135SCA is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 135mm 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.
Delivering 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel mini cylinder handles compact automation with ease. The Ø10 mm bore uses an M5x0.8 air port and an M4x0.7 male rod thread. Its riveted round-body construction pairs a stainless barrel and rod to resist mild corrosion and washdowns better than painted alternatives. Because it adheres to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises.
Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb impact at the stroke ends, while the included -S piston magnet supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG reed or electronic switches. For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of about 24 N, which means it lifts roughly 2 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The CA rear pivot cover provides a clevis mount, and the 135 mm stroke operates smoothly between 30 and 800 mm/s.

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 down a testing lane using a safe 24 N working load, relying on the 135 mm stroke to clear adjacent tooling.
Folds thin cardboard flaps on compact packaging lines where the stainless body withstands light washdowns during cleaning cycles.
Pivots sample tubes via the CA clevis mount, lifting roughly 2 kg cassettes vertically with a safe 2:1 margin at 0.5 MPa.
When sizing this 39.3 N (at 0.5 MPa) unit, compare it against the smaller Ø8 bore, which offers 25.1 N of push, or step up to the Ø12 bore if you need 56.5 N. The 135 mm stroke is well within the 200 mm standard maximum for this bore, avoiding made-to-order delays. If your mechanism must hold a vertical load when air is removed or the valve is centred, this cylinder will drift; add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve for secure positioning. The TPU bumpers only decelerate the end of travel and do not act as a brake.
The CA back cover supplies a rear pivot point for clevis mounting. Ensure you pair the internal magnet with compatible CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position detection.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 39.3 N push and 33 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 55 N push and 46.1 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This Ø10 mm bore utilizes an M5x0.8 air port and operates between 30 and 800 mm/s.
No, the piston will drift if air pressure is lost or the valve is centred; the fixed TPU bumper pads only decelerate the stroke end and do not lock the rod. Use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for holding. It features a CA rear pivot clevis and uses standard ISO 6432 mounting dimensions for easy bracket integration.
