The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X10CM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 10mm 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.
Delivering 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder handles short 10 mm strokes with precision. The CM round rear cover keeps ports neatly oriented, while the 1/8" porting matches the Ø25 mm bore class. Built to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, it drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises.
A defining feature is the adjustable air cushion at both ends, letting you tune a needle valve to absorb end-of-stroke shock at high speeds up to 800 mm/s. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. With a safe working load of roughly 147 N, it can lift about 12.5 kg vertically using a 2:1 safety margin. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.

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.
Ideal for holding light metal components during machining, using its 10 mm stroke and 245 N of thrust to secure parts firmly without overshooting.
Provides a fast, cushioned tap to fold carton flaps on packaging lines, where the adjustable air cushion prevents slamming at high cycle rates.
Ejects molded plastic parts from tight fixtures, leveraging the stainless build to withstand occasional mist exposure in light washdown zones.
For lighter duties, the MIC20 bore drops to 157 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the MIC32 raises output to 402 N. Choose this Ø25 model when your application needs that middle-ground thrust in a compact ISO 6432 form. The dual adjustable cushions are essential when moving loads at high velocity, as they decelerate the piston smoothly without harsh impacts.
Keep in mind the air cushion only slows the piston near the end of travel; it does not lock or hold the load. If air pressure drops, the rod will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for suspended loads. Because this specific code has no -S suffix, position sensing is not possible without switching to the magnet-equipped variant.
Quick checklist
This Ø25 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" port and a male M10x1.25 rod thread. It generates 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet, so it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You would need the -S variant for position sensing. It still features adjustable air cushions at both ends and a stainless steel build for mild corrosion resistance.
