The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X220SU is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 220mm 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.
Soak up high-cycle shock with the AirTAC MIC20X220SU, a 20 mm bore double-acting mini cylinder built with a stainless-steel round barrel and piston rod. A variable air cushion at both ends lets you dial in the needle to decelerate the load smoothly at stroke end, cutting impact noise and wear when cycling at speed. The integrated -S piston magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches for precise end-of-stroke detection.
Delivering 157 N of push and 131.9 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, this ISO 6432 mounting-interface unit handles a safe working load of about 94 N, lifting roughly 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. It features a 1/8" port, an M8x1.25 male rod thread, and a U-style 90-degree rear cover for versatile port and mounting orientation. The stainless build resists mild corrosion and washdown environments.

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.
Use the 157 N push force and adjustable cushion to cleanly divert small totes on a high-speed conveyor without slamming at the end of the 220 mm stroke.
The stainless round body handles light washdown, while the needle-set cushion folds carton flaps smoothly, protecting the packaging material from impact damage.
Apply a controlled 94 N safe working load to seat small bearings or clips, relying on the U-style rear cover for a compact 90-degree mounting setup.
When sizing this 20 mm bore, stepping down to an MIC16 drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 100.5 N, while stepping up to an MIC25 raises it to 245.3 N. Choose this 220 mm stroke model when you need the adjustable cushion to tame end-of-stroke shock on a fast-moving load. Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel; it does not lock or hold the load. If your application must hold position on air loss, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Pair the built-in magnet with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches, and mount via standard ISO 6432 brackets or the U-style back cover.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder pushes with 157 N and pulls with 131.9 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push is 219.8 N and pull is 184.7 N. The theoretical maximum force is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a 1/8" air port and an M8x1.25 male rod thread.
The MIC features a variable air cushion at both ends. You adjust a needle valve to decelerate the piston near stroke end, reducing shock at high speeds, but it is not a braking lock. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can directly mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position detection.
