The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X30SCATC is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 30mm 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.
Delivering 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel mini cylinder handles compact actuation where mild corrosion or washdown is a concern. The Ø10 mm bore uses an M5x0.8 air port and a Ø4 mm piston rod with an M4x0.7 male thread. Because the bore falls within the Ø8-Ø25 range, it shares the ISO 6432 mounting interface, dropping smoothly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises.
The riveted round body incorporates fixed TPU bumper pads to soften stroke-end impact without adding an adjustable cushion. This specific SKU includes a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed and electronic switches. For real-world work at 0.5 MPa, plan for roughly 24 N of usable load, which translates to lifting 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.
Ideal for small electronic assembly arms needing precise 30 mm travel to position delicate components on circuit boards.
Provides the short, repeatable stroke required to index adhesive labels in damp or washdown packaging lines.
The stainless body withstands chemical exposure in laboratory automation while deflecting sample vials with a 39.3 N push.
When sizing this 10 mm bore against its neighbours, step down to the Ø8 for lighter duties (25.1 N push at 0.5 MPa) or move up to the Ø12 for heavier cycles (56.5 N push at 0.5 MPa). This unit features a CA pivot clevis back cover and a TC trunnion mounting accessory, giving you flexible pivot options. Remember that venting the air supply or centering the valve causes the piston to drift; the TPU bumpers only decelerate the end of stroke and will not lock the load. For suspended weights, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder has 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 -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. The TC trunnion mount pairs with the CA clevis back cover to allow pivoting, and the body uses standard ISO 6432 mounting dimensions for easy bracket matching.
