The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X155SCA is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 155mm 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 precise 155 mm strokes in compact spaces. The riveted stainless barrel and Ø4 mm rod naturally resist mild corrosion, outperforming painted alternatives in damp or washdown settings. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb end-of-stroke impact without offering adjustable cushioning. Equipped with an M5x0.8 port and an M4x0.7 male rod thread, it operates at speeds from 30-800 mm/s.
Because the bore is Ø10, the body incorporates standard ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, allowing a seamless drop into standard mini-cylinder brackets. The built-in -S magnet supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG position switches for exact stroke confirmation. For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of about 24 N, which means it can comfortably lift a 2 kg part vertically with a 2:1 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.
Applies a precise 24 N contact force to probe PCB test points during automated functional validation.
Extends 155 mm to push small parcels weighing up to 2 kg off a sorting belt into secondary packaging chutes.
Ejects plastic vials from a testing carousel using a stainless body that withstands daily chemical washdowns.
When sizing this 10 mm bore unit, compare your real load against the 39.3 N push rating at 0.5 MPa. If your application demands less force, dropping down to an Ø8 bore provides 25.1 N; if you need more power, stepping up to a Ø16 bore yields 100.5 N. The CA rear pivot cover suits articulated clevis mounts, while the -S magnet ensures sensor readiness. Keep in mind that a plain double-acting cylinder drifts if air pressure drops, as the TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end rather than locking the load. To hold a suspended weight securely, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder delivers a push force of 39.3 N and a pull force of 33 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push is 55 N and pull is 46.1 N. The theoretical maximum force is 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is M5x0.8.
Yes to the sensor, no to the cushion. The -S suffix means it has a built-in piston magnet ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. However, it relies on fixed TPU bumper pads for end-of-stroke deceleration; it does not have the adjustable air cushion found on MIC variants.
