The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X65SCA is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 65mm 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 round-body mini cylinder handles compact actuation with ease. The Ø10 mm bore operates on an M5x0.8 port, while the CA rear pivot cover provides a robust clevis mount for angled linkage drives. An integrated piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG position switches.
Its stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, outperforming painted alternatives in damp or washdown settings. The riveted body uses fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end. Plan for roughly 24 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which means it lifts about 2 kg vertically with a safe 2:1 margin.

| 0.7 MPa | 55 N | 46 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 8 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a 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.
Pushes small PCBs or microchips along a conveyor lane using a precise 39.3 N thrust guided by a DMSG sensor.
Swings a small arm via the CA clevis to tuck flaps on thin cardboard boxes in a washdown-capable packaging line.
Pivots a gate to route vials on a testing carousel, benefiting from the stainless rod's resistance to mild chemical splashes.
When sizing this 39.3 N (0.5 MPa) unit, note the smaller Ø8 bore yields 25.1 N, whereas the larger Ø12 provides 56.5 N if you need more thrust. The 65 mm stroke is well within the 200 mm maximum, but long rods invite side-load bending, so keep the load guided. Because this SKU includes the magnet, it is fully ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.
Remember that venting the air supply causes the piston to drift, as the TPU bumpers only soften end impacts rather than locking the rod. To prevent a suspended payload from dropping, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
It provides 39.3 N push and 33 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 55 N push and 46.1 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is M5x0.8.
No, it uses fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end. The riveted stainless body conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, and the -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
