About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC16X200SCA
Delivering 140.7 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, this double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder handles 200 mm strokes with precision. The Ø16 bore features an M5×0.8 port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread. Because it includes a built-in piston magnet (-S), it supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches. The CA rear pivot cover simplifies clevis mounting.
A defining feature is the adjustable air cushion at both ends, letting you needle-set the deceleration to absorb high-speed shock and reduce noise. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. For sizing, a safe working load is roughly 60 N, and it lifts about 5.1 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. It conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions for easy bracket interchange.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC16X200SCA Is Used
Light Parts Ejection
Ejects small plastic or stamped parts at high speed. The adjustable air cushion prevents end-of-stroke banging, protecting delicate tooling.
Package Diverting
Pushes light cartons on a conveyor. The 5.1 kg vertical lift capacity handles small divert loads, while the stainless rod resists humidity.
Lab Automation
Moves test tubes or sample trays over a 200 mm travel. The CMSG sensor tracks position, and the cushion ensures smooth stops without splashing.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC16X200SCA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 16 mm bore, stepping down drops you to the MI bumper-only series, which lacks adjustable cushions. Stepping up to the MIC20 yields 157.0 N push at 0.5 MPa. Choose this Ø16 model for lighter, high-speed tasks where end-of-stroke shock must be minimized. The needle-set cushion only decelerates the load; it does not lock the rod. If you need to hold position on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
The -S suffix means a magnet is present for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. You can mount it using LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion hardware, alongside the CA clevis back cover. Related options include the MID double-rod and MIJ adjustable-stroke variants.
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 MIC16X200SCA FAQ
This double-acting cylinder has an M5×0.8 port. It generates 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end to reduce shock; it is not a brake or lock. The piston will drift on air loss. Use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for position holding. The -S magnet enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
