The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X350SU is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 350mm 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.
Handling mid-range linear tasks, this double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder features needle-adjustable air cushions at both ends to absorb high-speed end-of-stroke shock. The Ø20 mm bore uses a 1/8" port and an M8x1.25 male rod thread, pushing with 157 N and pulling with 131.9 N at 0.5 MPa. Its corrosion-resistant barrel and rod suit washdown environments, while the U-style 90-degree rear cover simplifies port and mounting orientation.
For practical sizing, expect a safe working load around 94 N, which translates to lifting about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The built-in -S piston magnet supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches for position sensing. Conforming to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for Ø16-Ø25 bores, it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises.

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.
Routes light cartons at high speed on a sorting line, using the adjustable cushions to stop the 350 mm stroke smoothly without slamming the diverter arm.
Drives a sealing jaw up and down repeatedly, relying on the 157 N push force and washdown-resistant stainless build to handle damp packaging areas.
Lifts approximately 8 kg of totes vertically between conveyor tiers, using the ISO 6432 mounting brackets to integrate into existing conveyor frames.
When sizing this 350 mm stroke unit, stepping down to a MIC16 bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 100.5 N, whereas moving up to a MIC25 bore raises it to 245.3 N. Choose this Ø20 model for loads near its 94 N safe working capacity where high travel speeds make the adjustable needle cushions essential for protecting the payload. The U back cover provides a 90-degree mount for tight layouts.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If air pressure drops, the piston will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a suspended load safely. Position feedback requires the included -S magnet to pair with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
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, 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end and do not act as a brake; you must use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a load on air loss.
