About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X30SCM
Tame high-speed end-of-stroke impacts with the AirTAC MIC20X30SCM, a 20mm bore round-body mini cylinder built with a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mild washdown resistance. A variable air cushion at both ends lets you dial in the deceleration needle to soak up kinetic energy, protecting your payload and cutting shop noise far better than a fixed rubber bumper. The rear CM round cover keeps the 1/8" port orientation clean for tight assemblies.
Delivering 157N of push and 131.9N of pull at 0.5MPa, this double-acting actuator fits standard ISO 6432 mini-cylinder mounting interfaces for straightforward bracket drops. The built-in -S piston magnet supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches. In practical terms, it handles a safe working load of roughly 94N, meaning it lifts about 8kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X30SCM Is Used
Light Package Diverting
Snaps small cartons across a belt at high speed. The adjustable air cushion gently stops the 8kg load at stroke end without jarring the mechanism.
Small Part Ejection
Pushes molded parts out of a press zone. The 157N thrust clears the die fast, while the stainless rod shrugs off occasional coolant spray.
Pick And Place Y-Axis
Drives a short 30mm vertical or horizontal placement move. The CM rear cover and ISO 6432 dimensions simplify clean sub-plate mounting.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X30SCM the Right Cylinder?
If your payload is lighter, the 16mm bore offers 100.5N push at 0.5MPa, while heavier rigs step up to the 25mm bore at 245.3N. Choose this 20mm size when moving masses at high speeds where the adjustable needle cushion becomes essential to prevent impact damage. Remember that the cushion only decelerates near the stroke end; it is not a brake. If you need to hold a load vertically during air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. You can mount it via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion hardware.
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 MIC20X30SCM FAQ
This 20mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" air port and an 8mm piston rod. It generates 157N push and 131.9N pull at 0.5MPa, or 219.8N push and 184.7N pull at 0.7MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 32kgf at 1.0MPa.
Yes, the -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end to reduce shock; it does not lock or hold the load on air loss, so use a pilot check valve for vertical holding.
