About the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X30SU
Delivering 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel mini cylinder handles compact automation with ease. The 10 mm bore and 30 mm stroke use an M5x0.8 air port and an M4x0.7 male rod thread. Its riveted round body relies on fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end, keeping the assembly light and simple.
The stainless barrel and rod shrug off mild corrosion, making it superior to painted alternatives in damp areas. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches directly for position sensing. In practice, you should plan for a safe working load of about 24 N, which means it lifts roughly 2 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X30SU Is Used
Electronic Component Sorting
Actuates a 30 mm stroke diverter gate on a PCB conveyor, using the 2 kg vertical lift capacity to flick lightweight plastic trays into the correct testing lane.
Lab Sample Ejection
Pushes vials out of a centrifuge carousel with 39.3 N of force, relying on the stainless build to withstand daily chemical wipe-downs and humid environments.
Small Part Clamping
Holds a delicate plastic housing against a sonic welding horn, where the U cover keeps the M5x0.8 air line neatly tucked at 90 degrees to save valuable machine space.
Is the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X30SU the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 10 mm bore, stepping down is not an option as it is the smallest standard MI, but stepping up to the 12 mm bore increases the 0.5 MPa push force to 56.5 N if you need more muscle. The U back cover provides a 90-degree port orientation, easily pairing with LB foot or FA flange brackets via the ISO 6432 mounting dimensions. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve if your application must hold a load securely. The 30 mm stroke keeps the rod short, minimizing side-load and bending concerns.
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 MI10X30SU FAQ
This 10 mm bore cylinder features an M5x0.8 air port and an M4x0.7 male rod thread. 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 means a piston magnet is built-in, allowing you to fit CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The U back cover orients the air port 90 degrees, and the body uses standard ISO 6432 mounting dimensions for easy bracket integration.
