The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X50SCASDB is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 50mm 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 50 mm strokes with precision. The riveted stainless barrel and Ø4 mm rod shrug off mild washdown and damp environments where painted bodies corrode. It breathes through an M5x0.8 port and features a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
Designed to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, the Ø10 mm body drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb stroke-end impact without the tuning an adjustable cushion demands. In practice, 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.

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.
Ejects delicate printed circuit boards from test fixtures using a gentle 39.3 N push force, preventing trace damage during automated unloading.
Tucks cardboard flaps on small pharmaceutical blister packs with a 50 mm stroke, where the stainless body resists daily wipe-down chemicals.
Pushes 2 kg plastic moulded components out of an injection press using the SDB pivot block to absorb slight angular misalignment.
This Ø10 bore sits between the smaller Ø8 (25.1 N push) and the larger Ø12 (56.5 N push), giving you a clear upgrade path if your 50 mm stroke needs more or less force. The included SDB pivot block pairs with the CA rear clevis to handle angular rod misalignment during extension. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can mount position sensors directly.
Remember that fixed bumpers only decelerate the stroke end; they do not act as a brake. If air pressure drops or the valve centres, the piston will drift and drop the load. To hold a vertical part securely, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve to your circuit.
Quick checklist
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 force is 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is M5x0.8 and the male rod thread is M4x0.7.
The -S suffix means it has a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. While it can lift about 2 kg with a 2:1 margin, it lacks a holding brake. The piston drifts if air is lost, so use a pilot check valve for suspended loads. The CA clevis and SDB block provide pivoting mount options.
