About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC16X200SCATC
Designed for high-speed actuation where end-of-stroke shock must be tamed, the AirTAC MIC16X200SCATC uses a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends to decelerate the load smoothly. This double-acting round-body mini cylinder features a stainless-steel barrel and piston rod, offering mild corrosion resistance for washdown environments. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for Ø16 bores, dropping directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises.
Operating at speeds from 30 to 800 mm/s, this 16 mm bore unit generates 100.5 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, yielding a safe working load of about 60 N. For vertical moves, it lifts approximately 5.1 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. The 1/8" port and M6x1.0 male rod thread simplify integration, while the -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensing.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC16X200SCATC Is Used
Light-Part Ejection
Shoots small plastic parts out of a mold at high speed, relying on the adjustable air cushion to prevent end-of-stroke slamming without beating up the components.
Package Diverting
Pushes lightweight cartons on a sorting line where the 60 N safe working load easily handles the mass and the TC trunnion absorbs lateral guide stress.
Lab Sample Routing
Moves test tubes between stations in a humid environment, benefiting from the stainless steel build and smooth ISO 6432 mini-cylinder mounting interface.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC16X200SCATC the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 16 mm bore model, stepping down is not an option within the MIC cushioned range, as smaller diameters rely on fixed bumpers. Stepping up to the MIC20X50 increases your 0.5 MPa push force significantly to 157 N. Choose the MIC16X200SCATC when your cycle speed demands the adjustable cushioning that a standard MI bumper cannot provide. The included TC trunnion and CA rear pivot cover suit pivoting articulations.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end, it does not function as a brake. If air pressure drops, the piston will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for suspended loads. This SKU includes the -S magnet for electronic or reed switches.
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 MIC16X200SCATC FAQ
This 16 mm bore cylinder has a 1/8" port. It generates 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum force of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the ends, it does not lock the load, so you must add a pilot check valve to prevent drifting on vertical lifts.
