About the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI12X110SCA
Delivering 56.5 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder handles compact linear motion with a 110 mm stroke. The Ø12 mm bore operates on an M5x0.8 port, while the CA rear cover provides an integrated pivot clevis for angled actuation. Its riveted stainless barrel and rod shrug off mild corrosion, outlasting painted alternatives in damp production zones. Equipped with an -S piston magnet, it directly supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for position sensing.
For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of roughly 34 N, which is about 60 percent of the 0.5 MPa rating. In vertical lift setups, this translates to lifting around 2.9 kg safely with a two-to-one margin. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at stroke extremes, and the body conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, ensuring it drops right into standard mini-cylinder brackets.

Where the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI12X110SCA Is Used
Small Parts Ejection
Uses the 56.5 N push stroke to eject small moulded plastic components from an assembly fixture without damaging the part surface.
Package Diverting
Employs the 110 mm stroke and CA pivot clevis to swing a diverter arm, routing lightweight cardboard cartons on a packaging line.
Lab Sample Handling
Leverages the stainless steel construction and 2.9 kg vertical lift capacity to move sample tubes in humid laboratory environments.
Is the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI12X110SCA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 12 mm bore, verify if the 56.5 N push at 0.5 MPa offers enough thrust; dropping down to an Ø8 bore limits you to 25.1 N, whereas stepping up to a Ø16 bore provides 100.5 N. This 110 mm stroke sits well within the 250 mm maximum for this bore, but at extended lengths you should watch for rod bending under side loads. The CA pivot clevis accommodates angular movement, and the integrated magnet allows seamless sensor placement.
Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered, as the fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the end of stroke rather than locking the piston. To prevent drifting on suspended loads, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
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 MI12X110SCA FAQ
This double-acting cylinder uses an M5x0.8 air port and a Ø6 mm piston rod with an M6x1.0 male thread. It generates 56.5 N push and 42.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 79.1 N push and 59.4 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum force of 11.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet designed for CMSG, DMSG and EMSG reed or electronic switches. The CA back cover acts as a pivot clevis, allowing the cylinder to articulate on a pin, while the ISO 6432 mounting dimensions ensure compatibility with standard mini brackets.
