About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X450SU
Driving 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder handles long 450 mm strokes with precision. The Ø20 mm bore features a 1/8 inch port and an M8x1.25 male rod thread. Because it carries the -S suffix, a built-in piston magnet enables direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and electronic switches for position sensing.
Twin adjustable air cushions at both stroke ends let you needle-set the deceleration to silence end-of-travel bang at high cycling speeds, outperforming fixed bumper designs. The rolled stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown, and the U-style 90-degree rear cover simplifies port and mounting orientation. With a safe working load around 94 N, it lifts about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X450SU Is Used
Package Diverting
Uses the 157 N push force to deflect light cartons on a high-speed sorting line, relying on the adjustable cushion to prevent end-stroke impact.
Vertical Lift Gates
Raises an 8 kg access flap with a 2:1 safety margin, where the stainless build withstands humid dock environments.
Light Assembly Press
Moves a tooling head over 450 mm to seat delicate components, using the needle-set cushion to protect parts from sudden stops.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X450SU the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 157 N push unit, dropping down to the Ø16 bore lowers thrust to 100.5 N, while stepping up to the Ø25 bore raises it to 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable cushion matters most when moving heavy loads at high velocities, as it decelerates the piston smoothly without bouncing. It fits standard ISO 6432 mini-cylinder brackets and clevises for easy drop-in interchange.
Remember that the air cushion only slows the piston near stroke end; it does not act as a brake. If air pressure drops, the piston drifts, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for suspended loads. The U rear cover and -S magnet match perfectly with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
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 MIC20X450SU FAQ
This double-acting cylinder pushes 157 N and pulls 131.9 N at 0.5 MPa, and pushes 219.8 N while pulling 184.7 N at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a 1/8 inch air port and an 8 mm piston rod.
No, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end to reduce shock; it is not a lock or brake. The -S suffix means the cylinder has a built-in magnet, allowing you to attach CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position detection.
