About the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X140SU
Delivering 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel mini cylinder handles compact automation tasks with ease. The Ø10 mm bore uses an M5x0.8 air port and a 140 mm stroke, while the built-in piston magnet (-S) directly supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG reed or electronic switches for position sensing. Its riveted round-body construction shrinks the footprint compared to bulkier alternatives.
The stainless barrel and rod naturally resist mild corrosion and washdown, making it superior to painted steel in damp environments. Because it adheres to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises. For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of roughly 24 N, which means it can lift about 2 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X140SU Is Used
Package Diverter Gate
Pushes lightweight cardboard cartons on a packaging line using its 39.3 N push force, with the U 90-degree cover allowing tight side-mounting clearance.
Lab Sample Ejection
Ejects small plastic test tubes from a tray using the 140 mm stroke, where the stainless build resists humidity and chemical wipe-downs.
Small Part Sorting
Actuates a sorting flap for lightweight plastic components, relying on the -S magnet and DMSG switches to confirm the 140 mm extension.
Is the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X140SU the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 39.3 N (at 0.5 MPa) unit, consider the neighbouring bores: step down to an Ø8 mm if your load is under 25.1 N, or move up to a Ø12 mm for 56.5 N of push force. The U 90-degree rear cover provides specific pivot orientation for your mounting layout. Since this SKU includes the -S magnet, it is fully ready for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
Keep in mind that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve is centred; the fixed TPU bumper pads only soften the stroke-end impact rather than locking the rod. To suspend a load safely during an air failure, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Additionally, with a 140 mm stroke, ensure your guiding structure prevents rod bending and side-load wear.
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 MI10X140SU FAQ
This double-acting cylinder uses an M5x0.8 air port. 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.
No, the piston will drift if air is lost or the valve is centred. The fixed TPU bumper pads only decelerate the stroke end and do not act as a brake. For vertical loads, you must use an external rod lock or pilot check valve. The -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors for position feedback.
