Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X115SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X115SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 115mm 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 MIC20X115SCA
Delivering 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, the AirTAC MIC20X115SCA is a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder built for double-acting operation. Its defining feature is the adjustable air cushion at both ends: a needle valve lets you dial in the deceleration to absorb end-of-stroke shock at high speeds, protecting the load and lowering noise compared to a fixed bumper. The stainless barrel and rod shrug off mild corrosion and washdown environments, while the Ø20 bore uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface for easy bracket interchange. A 1/8" port and M8x1.25 male rod thread handle the air and load connections.
For practical sizing, this bore yields a safe working load of about 94 N, or roughly 8 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 safety margin. The code includes the -S magnet, enabling CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensing, and the CA back cover provides a rear pivot mount. Operating pressure spans 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, with a speed range of 30-800 mm/s.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X115SCA Is Used
Package Diverting
Handles light cardboard carton routing on a high-speed conveyor, using the adjustable cushion to stop the 115 mm stroke smoothly without denting the packages.
Small Part Ejection
Pushes machined plastic components out of a fixture, relying on the 157 N push force and stainless build to withstand light coolant spray.
Bin Sorting Gate
Actuates a lightweight flap mechanism to sort items into chutes, where the ISO 6432 bracket interface and CA pivot allow simple tool-free alignment.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X115SCA the Right Cylinder?
If 157 N of push at 0.5 MPa feels excessive for your payload, dropping down to an MIC16 lowers the force to 100.5 N; conversely, stepping up to an MIC25 raises it to 245.3 N. The adjustable cushion proves essential when cycling at high speeds or moving heavier masses, as it prevents harsh metal-on-metal impacts. Remember that the 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 fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve for strict position holding. This CA-cover model mounts via a rear pivot clevis.
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 MIC20X115SCA FAQ
This double-acting cylinder has a 20 mm bore and a 1/8" port. It generates 157 N push and 131.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke and acts purely as a shock absorber, not a brake. The piston will drift on air loss, so you must use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a vertical load. The -S magnet allows CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors for position feedback.
