Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X10CM
The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X10CM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/8" 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.

About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X10CM
Delivering 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel mini cylinder handles short 10 mm strokes with precision. The CM round rear cover keeps ports tidy for compact assemblies. It uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface, dropping directly into standard mini brackets and clevises.
A variable air cushion at both ends lets you dial in the needle valve to absorb end-of-stroke shock at high speeds, protecting your payload and cutting noise better than a fixed bumper. Based on the 0.5 MPa push rating, it handles a safe working load of roughly 94 N, lifting about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X10CM Is Used
Short-Stroke Clamping
Ideal for holding light machined parts. The 10 mm stroke and 157 N push force secure components quickly without overshooting, while the cushion softens the clamp impact.
Small Part Ejection
Ejects lightweight plastic or metal parts from a fixture at high speed. The adjustable air cushion catches the rod at the end of the stroke to prevent banging and noise.
Flap Folding
Folds carton flaps on a packaging line. The stainless round body resists mild washdown moisture, and the CM rear cover allows easy top or bottom port mounting.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X10CM the Right Cylinder?
For lower force needs, the Ø16 bore provides 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the Ø25 bore yields 245.3 N if your payload grows. This Ø20 bore is ideal when you need 157 N push and 131.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, paired with a 1/8" port and an M8x1.25 male rod thread. Choose this adjustable-cushion version over a standard bumper cylinder when cycling at high speeds or moving sensitive loads that require smooth deceleration.
The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not lock or hold the load. If air pressure drops, the piston will drift, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for suspended loads. Since this base SKU has no magnet, order an -S variant if you require position sensing.
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 MIC20X10CM FAQ
This double-acting cylinder has a 20 mm bore, a 10 mm stroke, and a 1/8" port. It generates 157 N push and 131.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This specific SKU does not include a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches; you need the -S variant for sensing. The adjustable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston near stroke end to reduce shock, but it is not a brake and will not hold a load if air pressure is lost.
