The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X200SCA is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 200mm 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 mini cylinder handles precise light-duty actuation. The Ø10 mm bore uses an M5×0.8 air port and a Ø4 mm piston rod with an M4×0.7 male thread. Its riveted round-body construction pairs a stainless barrel and rod to resist mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted alternatives in damp or washdown settings.
The built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for position sensing, while the CA rear cover provides a pivot clevis for articulated mounting. Operating at 30-800 mm/s, the fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke ends. For real-world sizing, plan for roughly 24 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which means it can vertically lift about 2 kg with a safe 2:1 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 lightweight PCBs or connectors along a conveyor lane using its 39.3 N thrust and 200 mm travel distance.
Pivots via the CA clevis to tension and guide thin packaging film rolls in a damp filling environment.
Actuates a small gate to route vials on a diagnostic analyser, lifting parts under 2 kg with reliable sensor feedback.
This 200 mm stroke reaches the maximum standard limit for the Ø10 bore, so ensure your guiding structure prevents rod bending under side loads. If you need less push, the Ø8 bore offers 25.1 N at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the Ø16 bore provides 100.5 N. The CA clevis back cover suits pivoting loads, and position feedback requires the included -S magnet with compatible reed or electronic sensors.
Remember that air pressure alone does not secure the piston if supply drops or the valve centres, as the rod will drift and the bumpers only soften the end stops. To suspend a load safely, fit an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
It features an M5×0.8 port. Force output is 39.3 N push and 33 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 55 N push and 46.1 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the Ø10 bore follows ISO 6432 mounting dimensions for easy bracket interchange, and the -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. The CA back cover adds a pivot clevis for angled loads.
