Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X95SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X95SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 95mm 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 MIC20X95SCA
Delivering 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, the AirTAC MIC20X95SCA is a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built for rapid cycling. Its stainless-steel barrel and Ø8 mm rod shrug off mild corrosion, while the 1/8" port supplies air efficiently. Because this Ø20 bore adheres to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises without custom hardware.
The defining feature of the MIC series is the adjustable air cushion at both ends. By turning a needle valve, you tune the end-of-stroke deceleration to eliminate high-speed shock and noise, far outperforming a fixed rubber bumper. For vertical setups, this unit lifts about 8 kg safely with a 2:1 margin. The built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches, and the CA rear cover provides a pivot mount for angular articulation.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X95SCA Is Used
High-Speed Diverting
Uses the 157 N push force to rapidly knock small cartons off a belt, relying on the adjustable air cushion to silently stop the rod without slamming.
Pouch Sealing Press
Brings a heated jaw down on packaging film; the needle-set cushion ensures the stroke ends softly, preventing film tearing or machine shake.
Light-Load Vertical Lift
Raises small component trays weighing up to 8 kg vertically, using the double-acting force and CA pivot mount to articulate smoothly into a bin.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC20X95SCA the Right Cylinder?
If 157 N push at 0.5 MPa is too much force, dropping down is difficult because smaller Ø8, Ø10, and Ø12 bores lack the adjustable cushion build entirely; you would have to step down to the MI bumper-style Ø16. If you need more power, the Ø25 bore pushes 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa. The 95 mm stroke here is well within the 500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. Choose this cushioned model specifically when your cycle speed demands rapid 30-800 mm/s velocities and a fixed bumper would damage the payload.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If power drops, the piston drifts, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a suspended load. Mounting is versatile: use the CA clevis rear cover, or pair the standard body with LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion brackets. Position sensing requires the -S magnet already integrated into this SKU.
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 MIC20X95SCA FAQ
This double-acting Ø20 mm 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.
No, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke to reduce shock; it is not a brake or lock. If air loss occurs, the rod will drift, so you must add an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load.
