The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X60SCATC is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 60mm 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 mini cylinder handles compact actuation where mild corrosion or washdown is a concern. The Ø10 mm bore features an M5x0.8 air port and a 60 mm stroke, relying on fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end. Because it follows ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises.
For practical sizing, plan for about 24 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting a 2 kg part vertically with a safe 2:1 margin. The riveted round body keeps the unit light, and the built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG position switches.

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.
Pushes lightweight PCBs or connectors along a conveyor lane using a safe 24 N working load at 0.5 MPa.
Extends 60 mm to tuck cardboard flaps on a packaging line, benefiting from the washdown-resistant stainless build.
Pivots via the CA clevis to route test tubes on a diagnostic carousel, lifting roughly 2 kg loads vertically.
When sizing this 60 mm stroke model, compare it against its neighbours: the Ø8 bore offers 25.1 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while the Ø12 bore steps up to 56.5 N. If your payload requires holding position during air loss or valve centering, note that the piston will drift, as the TPU bumpers only soften the stroke end rather than locking the rod; an external pilot check valve or rod lock is required for secure load holding.
This configuration includes a CA rear pivot cover for clevis mounting and a TC trunnion accessory. The 60 mm stroke is well within the 200 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, but ensure your guiding structure handles any potential side-load to prevent rod bending.
Quick checklist
This Ø10 mm bore cylinder features an M5x0.8 air 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.
The base MI uses fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end, not an adjustable air cushion. However, the -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet, allowing you to mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed and electronic switches for position sensing.
