The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X150CM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 150mm 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.
Built for rapid cycling, the AirTAC MIC20X150CM relies on a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends to decelerate loads smoothly, eliminating the harsh impact typical of fixed-bumper units. This double-acting, round-body stainless steel mini cylinder pushes with 157 N and pulls with 131.9 N at 0.5 MPa, while its 150 mm stroke operates at speeds up to 800 mm/s.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Conforming to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for Ø20 bores, it drops into standard mini brackets seamlessly. It features a CM round rear cover, an M8x1.25 male rod thread, and a 1/8" port. Without the -S suffix, this SKU lacks a magnet and cannot host CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For vertical lifting, expect a safe working load of about 94 N (roughly 8 kg with a 2:1 margin).

MI-family variants: MI / MIC (double acting ±cushion), MSI / MTI (single acting push / pull), MID / MICD (double rod ±cushion), MIJ / MICJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / R / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Pushes light cartons at high speed across a sorting belt; the adjustable air cushion halts the 150 mm stroke gently to prevent box damage.
Ejects machined plastic parts from a mold cavity, using the 157 N push force to break the part free without slamming the rear cover.
Cycles rapidly to maintain tension on a packaging film web, relying on stainless construction to resist humid washdown conditions.
If 157 N of push at 0.5 MPa is insufficient, step up to the Ø25 bore (245 N push); if you need less force, the Ø16 bore offers 100.5 N. The adjustable air cushion is essential here for a 150 mm stroke moving heavy loads at high velocity, as it absorbs end-of-stroke shock without bouncing. Remember that the cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel; it does not lock or hold the load. If air pressure drops, the rod will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve for suspended loads.
Mount this cylinder using LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion brackets. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot accept position sensors; choose an -S variant if you require CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder has a 1/8" port and an 8 mm piston 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, because this SKU lacks the -S suffix, it has no internal magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. It features a CM round rear cover and adjustable air cushions at both ends to manage high-speed deceleration.
