About the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X200U
Delivering 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel mini cylinder handles precise linear tasks over a 200 mm travel. The Ø10 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 a real edge over painted-steel alternatives in damp or washdown environments. The riveted round body keeps the unit compact.
Because the 200 mm stroke is the maximum standard length for this bore, plan for about 24 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa to maintain a safe margin. This equates to lifting roughly 2 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety factor. The U-style back cover places the rear port at 90 degrees for tight cabinet routing, while fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the end-of-stroke impact. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors without upgrading to an -S variant.

Where the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X200U Is Used
Package Diverter Arm
Pushes lightweight cardboard cartons on a packaging line using 39.3 N of thrust, with the 90-degree rear port keeping airlines flush against the conveyor frame.
Lab Sample Ejection
Extends 200 mm to eject plastic test tubes from a rotating carousel, benefiting from the stainless rod's resistance to chemical splashes and mild moisture.
Small Parts Sorting
Cycles rapidly at 30-800 mm/s to deflect aluminium fasteners into designated chutes, relying on fixed TPU pads to soften the repeated end-of-stroke impacts.
Is the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X200U the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 39.3 N (at 0.5 MPa) unit, consider the smaller Ø8 bore if your load is under 25 N, or step up to the Ø12 bore which provides 56.5 N if you need more thrust. The 200 mm stroke pushes the limits of the Ø4 mm rod, so ensure your mounting guides the load to prevent side-loading and rod bending. This model features the 90-degree U back cover for perpendicular port access.
Remember that the fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the piston near the stroke end; they do not function as a brake. If air pressure drops or the valve is centred, the piston will drift and cannot hold a vertical load. You must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve to secure the position. The absence of an -S magnet means no sensor feedback is possible on this base unit.
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 MI10X200U FAQ
This double-acting cylinder uses an M5x0.8 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.
Yes, the Ø10 mm bore adheres to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, allowing it to drop into standard mini-cylinder clevises and brackets. However, this SKU lacks a magnet, so you cannot mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches unless you source the -S magnetic variant.
