Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X600SCM
The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X600SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 600mm 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.

About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X600SCM
Handling vertical lifts of about 8 kg with a 2:1 safety margin, this Ø20 mm bore actuator provides a 157 N push at 0.5 MPa. The MIC20X600SCM is a double-acting, round-body stainless steel mini cylinder built for a 600 mm stroke. Because 600 mm exceeds the 500 mm standard maximum for this bore, it is produced as a non-standard, made-to-order unit. A 1/8" port feeds the air supply.
Twin adjustable air cushions at both ends allow you to dial in the deceleration needle to absorb high-speed end-of-stroke shock, reducing noise and protecting the payload far better than a fixed rubber bumper. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Fitted with a CM round rear cover and a built-in magnet (-S), it accepts CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and electronic switches for position sensing. It uses the standard ISO 6432 mounting interface for straightforward bracket integration.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X600SCM Is Used
Vertical Material Lift
Lowers an 8 kg guided fixture over 600 mm. The adjustable air cushion prevents slamming at the bottom of the stroke, protecting the load and the guide rails.
High-Speed Divert Gate
Cycles a sorting flap rapidly on a packaging line. The needle-set cushion absorbs the end-of-stroke impact, extending cylinder life during fast operation.
Long-Reach Pusher
Transfers lightweight products across a 600 mm gap. The stainless construction handles mildly humid factory environments without seizing.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X600SCM the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, consider that the next smaller bore (Ø16) delivers 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the next larger bore (Ø25) provides 245.3 N. This Ø20 mm model offers a safe working load of roughly 94 N (about 60% of its 0.5 MPa push force), making it well-suited for moderate load transfers at high cycling speeds where the adjustable cushion is essential for smooth stops. The 600 mm travel requires a made-to-order configuration.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake or lock. If your application must hold a vertical load during air loss or valve centering, the piston will drift, requiring an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. For mounting flexibility, pair the CM cover with LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion brackets, and utilize the -S magnet for sensor feedback.
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 MIC20X600SCM FAQ
This Ø20 mm bore cylinder features 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 force of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. However, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it is not a brake. The cylinder will drift if air is lost, so use an external rod lock for suspended loads.
