Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X140SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X140SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 140mm 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 MIC20X140SCA
Delivering 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder handles rapid 140 mm strokes with precision. The adjustable air cushion at both ends lets you dial in needle valves to absorb end-of-stroke shock, protecting your payload and reducing noise far better than a fixed rubber bumper. Its stainless barrel and rod shrug off mild corrosion, making it suitable for washdown environments.
Conforming to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises. The built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches, while the rear CA pivot cover simplifies articulated mounting. With a practical safe working load of roughly 94 N, it lifts about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Air connects via a 1/8 inch port.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X140SCA Is Used
Package Diverting
Uses the 157 N push force to rapidly deflect light parcels on a sorting line, relying on the adjustable cushion to stop the 140 mm stroke smoothly without jarring the mechanism.
Small Parts Ejection
Ejects machined components from a fixture at speed; the stainless build resists cutting fluid mist while the needle-set cushion absorbs the end-of-stroke impact.
Flap Folding
Folds cardboard flaps on an automated packer, where the 8 kg vertical lift capacity and CA pivot mount accommodate varying box heights and side loads.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X140SCA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 20 mm bore, step down to the 16 mm version (100.5 N push) for lighter tasks, or move up to the 25 mm bore (245.3 N push) if your payload exceeds 94 N. The adjustable cushion is essential when cycling at high speeds or moving heavy masses, as it prevents harsh mechanical impacts. Keep in mind the cushion only decelerates the load near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If you need to prevent drift on air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
The CA rear pivot cover is ideal for applications requiring angular alignment. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can easily mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for end-of-stroke confirmation.
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 MIC20X140SCA FAQ
This 20 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8 inch port and an 8 mm rod. 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 force of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end and does not act as a lock; you need a pilot check valve or rod lock to hold a load. It includes a piston magnet (-S) for mounting CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches.
