The AirTAC Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI12X110U is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø12mm bore and 110mm 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 56.5 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel mini cylinder handles light-duty positioning with a 110 mm stroke. The riveted round body uses a stainless barrel and rod to resist mild corrosion, giving it a real edge over painted alternatives in damp or washdown environments. Its M5x0.8 port and M6x1.0 male rod thread keep the envelope compact.
Because the Ø12 bore conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises. For practical sizing, plan for about 34 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which means it lifts roughly 2.9 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the stroke-end impact, and the U rear cover provides a 90-degree port orientation for tight installations.

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 electronic parts along a conveyor lane using a safe 34 N working load, preventing damage to delicate PCBs during transfer.
Cycles a 110 mm stroke to fold light cardboard flaps on a packaging line, where the stainless body withstands occasional washdowns.
Actuates a diverter gate for specimen tubes, lifting mechanisms under 2.9 kg with a 2:1 vertical lift safety margin.
When sizing this 110 mm stroke model, compare it against its neighbours: the Ø10 bore yields 39.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while the Ø16 bore steps up to 100.5 N. If your mechanism drifts when air is removed or the valve is centred, remember this base cylinder does not lock the piston; the TPU pads only decelerate the end of travel. You must add an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load.
The U back cover orients the air supply at 90 degrees, which helps clear side-mounted machinery. Note that this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. If you need position feedback, select the -S variant. For a 110 mm stroke, ensure your guiding structure prevents side-load rod bending.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder has an M5x0.8 port and generates a push of 56.5 N and a pull of 42.4 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push is 79.1 N and pull is 59.4 N. The theoretical maximum force is 11.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet. You must choose the -S variant to use CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. The unit features fixed TPU bumper pads for end-of-stroke deceleration and uses an ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard brackets.
