About the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X50CA
Generating 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder handles compact 50 mm stroke tasks with a CA pivot clevis. The riveted barrel and rod shrug off mild corrosion, outlasting painted aluminium in damp or washdown settings. Because it follows ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets.
Fitted with an M5x0.8 port and an M4x0.7 male rod thread, the double-acting action drives 30-800 mm/s. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the stroke-end impact. Plan for roughly 24 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which means it lifts about 2 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X50CA Is Used
Electronic Component Sorting
Pushes small PCBs or microchips along a conveyor lane using 39.3 N of force, where the stainless body handles occasional coolant mist.
Blister Pack Flap Folding
Swings a lightweight guide arm via the CA pivot bracket to tuck cardboard flaps on a 50 mm stroke at high cycling speeds.
Lab Sample Diverting
Actuates a tiny diverter gate for specimen tubes, benefiting from the washdown-resistant stainless construction in humid laboratory environments.
Is the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X50CA the Right Cylinder?
If 39.3 N is too much, the Ø8 bore steps down to 25.1 N; if you need more push, the Ø16 jumps to 100.5 N. The CA rear pivot cover suits articulated rod-end linkages. This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. For position feedback, specify an -S variant.
Remember that venting the air causes the piston to drift, as the bumper pads only decelerate the end of travel rather than locking the load. To suspend a vertical weight safely, fit an external pilot check valve or rod lock.
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 MI10X50CA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 39.3 N and pulls 33 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 55 N and pulls 46.1 N. The theoretical maximum is 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is M5x0.8.
No, this specific SKU lacks a magnet. You must choose an -S version of the MI10 to mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for position detection.
