Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X150SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X150SCA 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.

About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X150SCA
Delivering 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder handles 150 mm strokes with precision. The Ø20 mm bore features an M8x1.25 male rod thread and a 1/8" port. Tunable air cushions at both ends absorb end-of-stroke shock at high cycling speeds, protecting your payload better than a fixed bumper. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. It uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini-cylinder brackets.
For practical sizing, expect a safe working load of roughly 94 N, or about 8 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 safety margin. The built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches for position sensing. A CA rear pivot cover provides a clevis mounting point. Note that the cushion only decelerates the load near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake or lock during air loss.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X150SCA Is Used
Package Diverting
Pushes light to medium cartons at high speed on a sorting line, using the adjustable cushion to stop the 150 mm stroke gently without jarring the conveyor.
Small Parts Ejection
Ejects machined components from a fixture, relying on the 157 N push force and stainless build to withstand light coolant splash and washdown.
Pallet Tagging
Extends a labeling head to apply tags on passing pallets, using the CA pivot cover to maintain alignment while the magnet triggers an EMSG sensor.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X150SCA the Right Cylinder?
If you need less force, dropping to a MIC16 lowers the 0.5 MPa push to 100.5 N. Stepping up to a MIC25 raises it to 245.3 N. Choose this Ø20 bore when moving moderate loads at high speeds where the adjustable needle cushions prevent harsh end impacts. For position feedback, the -S magnet pairs with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
Because a standard cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or a valve is centered, the cushion cannot hold a load in place. If your application requires vertical holding, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The CA back cover suits pivot mountings, and you can also use LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion brackets.
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 MIC20X150SCA FAQ
This double-acting cylinder has a 1/8" port and an M8x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 157 N push and 131.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. However, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the load near the stroke end; it is not a brake. The piston will drift on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold vertical loads.
