The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X140SCALB is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 140mm 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 compact linear motion. The 10 mm bore uses an M5x0.8 air port and an M4x0.7 male rod thread. Its stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, giving it an edge over painted alternatives in damp or washdown environments.
Because it includes a piston magnet, you can mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for position sensing. The fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke end without adjustable cushioning. For practical sizing, plan for about 24 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which means it lifts roughly 2 kg vertically with a safe 2:1 margin.

Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a 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 LB foot mount to stabilize the 140 mm travel path.
Closes thin cardboard flaps on a small packaging line, where the stainless body resists humidity and the CA clevis allows pivoting.
Actuates a small sample sorting arm in a diagnostic analyzer, relying on the DMSG sensor to confirm the 140 mm extension.
When sizing this 10 mm bore, stepping down to the Ø8 version drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 25.1 N, while stepping up to the Ø12 raises it to 56.5 N. This model pairs a CA rear pivot cover with an LB foot mounting bracket. The built-in magnet supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG sensors.
At 140 mm, the stroke is well within the 200 mm standard limit, though the Ø4 mm rod requires careful alignment to avoid side-load bending. Note that a standard cylinder drifts if air pressure is lost; the bumpers only soften the end of travel and do not act as a brake. Use an external pilot check valve if you need to hold a load vertically.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 39.3 N and pulls 33 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 55 N and pulls 46.1 N. The theoretical maximum force is 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is M5x0.8.
No, it uses fixed TPU bumper pads that decelerate the piston at the stroke ends. It is not an adjustable cushion variant. It includes a magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors and uses an ISO 6432 mounting interface.
