The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X150U 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.
Delivering 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, the AirTAC MIC20X150U is a double-acting, round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder built for a 150 mm stroke. A needle-set variable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed end-of-travel shock, protecting your payload while cutting noise. The stainless barrel and rod shrug off mild corrosion and washdown environments. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches.
With a 1/8" port and an M8x1.25 male rod thread, this unit conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for straightforward bracket and clevis integration. The rear U cover provides a 90-degree port orientation for tidy tubing in tight spaces. 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.

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.
Cycles small cardboard cartons at high speed on a packaging line, relying on the adjustable air cushion to prevent harsh slamming over the 150 mm travel.
Pushes lightweight machined parts out of a fixture, using the 157 N thrust to clear the tool while the stainless body resists cutting fluid mist.
Raises an 8 kg tote to a transfer height, benefiting from the smooth needle-set deceleration to avoid jarring the contents at the top of the stroke.
When sizing this 20 mm bore, stepping down to the 16 mm version drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 100.5 N, while moving up to the 25 mm bore raises it to 245.3 N. Choose this 150 mm stroke model for mid-range travel where the adjustable air cushion proves essential—specifically at high cycling speeds between 30 and 800 mm/s where a fixed bumper would transmit damaging shock. The cushion needle only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If your application must hold a load vertically during air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
The U-style rear cover simplifies 90-degree mounting. Since this specific SKU is non-magnetic, it cannot support sensing switches; you must select an -S variant to use CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
This 20 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" port. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 157 N and pulls with 131.9 N. At 0.7 MPa the push is 219.8 N and the pull is 184.7 N. The theoretical maximum force is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must order the -S magnet version for sensing. The stainless build and adjustable air cushion function identically across both variants.
