The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X75U is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 75mm 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.
Built as a stainless-steel, round-body mini cylinder, the AirTAC MIC20X75U brings double-acting power to a 20 mm bore and 75 mm stroke. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for bores Ø16-Ø25, dropping cleanly into standard mini brackets and clevises. The 1/8" port and M8x1.25 male rod thread make integration straightforward.
The defining feature of this MIC series is the adjustable air cushion at both ends. By turning a needle valve, you tune the end-of-stroke deceleration to absorb high-speed shock, protecting the load and reducing noise compared to a fixed bumper. In practical terms, the 157 N push force at 0.5 MPa yields a safe working load of about 94 N, letting you lift roughly 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The stainless barrel and rod also provide mild corrosion resistance for washdown environments.

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.
Handles high-speed lane diverting of small parcels on a conveyor, using the cushioned stroke to gently stop the actuator without jarring the mechanism.
Presses lightweight electronic connectors into housings, delivering 157 N of push force while the adjustable cushion prevents impact damage to delicate parts.
Lifts small access gates or material flaps, easily managing the 8 kg vertical load capacity while the U-cover rear port keeps plumbing tidy.
When sizing this 20 mm bore, consider the adjacent options. Stepping down to the 16 mm MI bumper version drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 100.5 N, while moving up to the 25 mm MIC increases it to 245.3 N. Choose the MIC20X75U when your cycle speed demands the adjustable air cushion to prevent harsh impacts at stroke ends.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel; it is not a brake. If your application must hold a load vertically during air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. This specific U-cover configuration provides a 90-degree rear port orientation. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; specify the -S variant if you need position sensing.
Quick checklist
This 20 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" port and an 8 mm rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 157 N and pulls with 131.9 N. At 0.7 MPa the push is 219.8 N and the pull is 184.7 N. The theoretical maximum force is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet. To use CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches, you must purchase the -S variant. Additionally, the adjustable air cushion at both ends only serves to decelerate the load near the stroke end; it does not lock or hold the position.
