The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X75SCA is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 75mm 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 light actuation with ease. The Ø10 mm bore uses an M5x0.8 air port and an M4x0.7 male rod thread. Its riveted stainless barrel and rod shrug off mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted alternatives in damp or washdown settings. The built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for position sensing.
For practical sizing, plan for roughly 24 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 2 kg vertically with a safe 2:1 margin. The rear CA pivot clevis allows articulated mounting, while fixed TPU bumper pads absorb end-of-stroke impacts. It operates at 30-800 mm/s and conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions for straightforward bracket integration.

Pushes small electronic parts down a conveyor lane with 39.3 N of force, using the CMSG sensor to confirm the diversion stroke.
Holds a thin film pouch steady during a heat seal cycle, where the stainless body resists mild washdown moisture between batches.
Ejects lightweight plastic test tubes from a carousel using the CA pivot mount to articulate the ejection arm smoothly.
When sizing this 75 mm stroke model, compare it against its neighbours: the Ø8 bore yields 25.1 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the Ø12 bore provides 56.5 N. Choose the Ø10 when you need slightly more power than the smallest option but want to keep the physical envelope minimal. Because this is a plain double-acting cylinder, the piston will drift if air pressure drops or the valve is centred; the bumpers only decelerate the stroke end and act as neither a lock nor a brake. To suspend a load safely, incorporate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve into your circuit. The 75 mm stroke is well within the 200 mm standard maximum, keeping the rod bending risk low, but ensure the CA clevis is aligned to prevent side loading.
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, increasing to 55 N push and 46.1 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
It can lift about 2 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin at 0.5 MPa. However, it does not hold position on air loss; the piston drifts. You must add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for secure load holding, as the fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end.
