About the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X80SCA
Delivering 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder handles compact automation tasks 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 resist mild corrosion, outperforming painted alternatives in damp environments. Because it includes a piston magnet, you can mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors for position detection.
The 80 mm stroke falls well within the 200 mm standard limit, and fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at stroke end. For real-world sizing, plan for roughly 24 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which equates to lifting about 2 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The built-in CA rear pivot cover allows direct clevis mounting, while the body conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions for straightforward bracket integration.

Where the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X80SCA Is Used
Electronic Component Sorting
Actuates small diverters on PCB assembly lines, using the 39.3 N thrust and 80 mm travel to push lightweight boards into testing lanes.
Blister Pack Sealing
Closes small pneumatic clamps on pharmaceutical blister packaging machines, where the stainless body withstands routine washdowns.
Parts Ejection Gate
Pivots a CA-mounted ejection gate on a conveyor to knock minor plastic defects off the line without damaging the good parts.
Is the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X80SCA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 10 mm bore unit, consider stepping down to the Ø8 model if your load requires under 25.1 N of push at 0.5 MPa, or moving up to the Ø12 bore which provides 56.5 N if you need more thrust. The CA pivot cover suits articulated mechanisms, and you can pair it with LB foot or FA flange front mounts. Note that an 80 mm stroke on a Ø4 mm rod requires careful alignment to prevent side-loading and rod bending. If the air supply drops, this cylinder will drift and cannot hold a load; integrate a pilot-operated check valve or external rod lock if position holding is critical.
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 MI10X80SCA FAQ
This double-acting cylinder has an M5x0.8 port and generates 39.3 N push / 33 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 55 N push / 46.1 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, it uses fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the piston at the stroke end. It is not an adjustable cushion variant, but the included -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors to be fitted.
