The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X70SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 70mm 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.
Soaking up high-speed end-of-stroke shock, the AirTAC MIC20X70SCM is a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built with a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mild washdown resistance. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for Ø20 bores, dropping directly into standard mini brackets and clevises. The CM round rear cover dictates a clean, inline port orientation.
At 0.5 MPa it generates 157 N of push force and 131.9 N of pull, translating to a safe working load of roughly 94 N or a vertical lift of about 8 kg with a 2:1 margin. Unlike a fixed bumper, its needle-set variable air cushion at both ends lets you dial in deceleration to protect payloads. The integrated -S magnet enables position sensing with CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches, and air connects via a 1/8" port.

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.
Uses the 157 N push force to push small parcels off a high-speed belt, relying on the adjustable air cushion to stop the 70 mm stroke without bouncing the load.
Ejects molded components at rapid cycle rates; the needle-set cushion absorbs the end shock to protect delicate plastic parts from cracking.
Lifts or lowers an 8 kg fixture vertically, using the ISO 6432 standard mount and the dual-end cushion to prevent hard bottoming on descent.
If you need less force, the Ø16 bore provides 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa but lacks the adjustable cushion; stepping up to the Ø32 bore yields 402.2 N. The cushion on this Ø20 model is essential when cycling at high speeds between 30-800 mm/s with heavy loads, as it prevents impact damage. Remember the cushion only decelerates near the stroke end and acts as no brake; for holding a load on air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve. Pair the -S magnet with CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors and mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion hardware.
Quick checklist
This 20 mm bore cylinder features an 8 mm piston rod with an M8x1.25 male thread and a 1/8" air port. It delivers 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 denotes a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end and does not lock or hold position; you must add a pilot check valve or external rod lock to prevent drift on air loss.
