About the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X80U
Generating 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel mini cylinder handles light actuation across an 80 mm stroke. The riveted round body and Ø4 mm piston rod shrug off mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted alternatives in damp or washdown-prone environments. It features a 90-degree U rear cover and an M5x0.8 port.
Because it lacks the -S suffix, this specific SKU cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG magnetic switches. For sizing, plan for roughly 24 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 2 kg vertically with a safe 2:1 margin. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at stroke end to protect your mechanism.

Where the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X80U Is Used
Electronic Component Sorting
Pushes lightweight PCBs or connectors along a guide rail during automated optical inspection lines.
Small Carton Flap Folding
Actuates a 90-degree folding arm to tuck minor flaps on pharmaceutical or cosmetic packaging.
Lab Sample Diverting
Switches small vial traffic between two conveyor lanes using its 80 mm travel and 2 kg lift capacity.
Is the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI10X80U the Right Cylinder?
If 39.3 N is excessive for a delicate task, the smaller Ø8 bore offers 25.1 N, whereas stepping up to the Ø12 bore provides 56.5 N for heavier pushing. This model uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface, so it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises. The U back cover provides a 90-degree mounting orientation for compact spatial constraints.
Note that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts if air pressure drops or the valve is centred; the bumpers only decelerate the stroke end and do not function as a brake. To suspend a load safely, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. For position feedback, you must select the -S magnet variant instead of this SKU.
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 MI10X80U FAQ
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.
Yes, the Ø10 bore uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard clevis and bracket compatibility. However, because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
