The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X20SCASDB is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 20mm 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 automation tasks with ease. The Ø10 mm bore operates on an M5x0.8 air port and features a 20 mm stroke. Because the piston carries a magnet (-S), you can track its position using CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
The rolled stainless barrel and rod shrug off mild corrosion, making it far superior to painted alternatives in damp production zones. Integrated fixed TPU bumper pads absorb end-of-stroke impacts, while the CA pivot clevis and SDB pivot-block mounting simplify articulation. Plan for a safe working load of roughly 24 N, which means it lifts about 2 kg 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.
Provides the 39.3 N push stroke to open and close small pneumatic grippers handling light electronic components on PCB assembly lines.
Extends 20 mm to route thin cardboard flaps in high-speed packaging machinery, utilizing the CA clevis for smooth pivoting motion.
Moves a 2 kg fluid valve head vertically in laboratory dispensing equipment, relying on the stainless build to resist chemical washdown.
If your application requires less force, the Ø8 mm bore provides 25.1 N of push at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the Ø12 mm bore yields 56.5 N. This SKU includes the SDB pivot-block and CA rear clevis, so ensure your mechanics match that articulating setup. The -S magnet enables position sensing, but remember a standard cylinder drifts if air pressure drops or the valve is centred—install an external pilot check valve if you need to suspend a load safely.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 39.3 N and pulls with 33 N. At 0.7 MPa the 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.
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. Use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold suspended loads.
