About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC16X110SU
Designed for compact automation, this double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder features a 16 mm bore and a 110 mm stroke. An adjustable air cushion at both ends lets you dial in the deceleration to absorb high-speed shocks, protecting your payload while reducing noise. The stainless barrel and rod offer reliable mild corrosion resistance, making it suitable for washdown or humid environments. It uses an M5×0.8 port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread.
Operating at 0.5 MPa, it generates 100.5 N of push force and 86.4 N of pull force, peaking at a theoretical 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For practical sizing, this translates to a safe working load of about 60 N, or lifting roughly 5.1 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The -S suffix means a built-in piston magnet is included, allowing seamless integration with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position detection.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC16X110SU Is Used
Small Part Ejection
Ideal for pushing lightweight plastic parts out of a mold at high speed, where the adjustable cushion prevents the 6 mm rod from slamming harshly against the end caps.
Flap Folding
Handles compact cardboard flap folding on a packaging line, using the built-in magnet and CMSG sensor to confirm stroke completion in tight spaces.
Lab Sample Routing
Perfect for shifting small test tubes between stations, as the stainless construction withstands humid lab environments and the 5.1 kg vertical lift capacity handles small racks easily.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC16X110SU the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this unit, consider stepping down to a bumper-style MI12 if your speed is low and shock is minimal, or moving up to a MIC20X110 which provides 157 N of push at 0.5 MPa for heavier loads. The adjustable cushion is essential here if you are cycling near the 800 mm/s maximum speed, as it prevents harsh end-of-stroke impacts. For mounting, the U back cover provides a 90-degree orientation, and you can utilize LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets. Because it conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for Ø16-Ø25 bores, it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder clevises.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If your application must hold a vertical load during a loss of air pressure, the piston will drift, so you should add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve to secure the position.
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 MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC16X110SU FAQ
This 16 mm bore cylinder uses an M5×0.8 port. At 0.5 MPa it provides 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa it provides 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke and acts as a shock absorber, not a brake. The piston will drift on air loss. For vertical loads, you must use an external rod lock or pilot check valve. The -S magnet supports CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
