The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X115U is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 115mm 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 brings adjustable air cushions to both stroke ends. You turn a needle valve to decelerate the piston at high speed, soaking up shock to protect your payload and cut workshop noise. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdowns, while the 1/8" port and M10x1.25 male rod thread drop straight into standard ISO 6432 mini-cylinder mounting interfaces.
With a 115 mm stroke and a U-type back cover that mounts the body at 90 degrees, it fits neatly into tight transfer assemblies. Based on the 0.5 MPa push rating, it handles a safe working load of about 147 N, lifting roughly 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note this specific SKU lacks the -S 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.
Uses the 245.3 N push force to deflect medium-weight cartons on a sorting line, relying on the adjustable cushion to stop the rod smoothly without hammering the endcap.
Presses small bearings or pins into housings at speed, using the 115 mm stroke to reach the workpiece while the U-cover keeps the mounting footprint tight to the machine frame.
Folds cardboard flaps on an automated packer where the stainless build shrugs off washdown, and the needle-set cushion prevents tearing the board at stroke end.
If your payload is lighter, the MIC20X50 class supplies 157 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the MIC32 bore yields 402 N for heavier indexing. Choose this 25 mm bore when you need mid-range force combined with high-speed cycling that would otherwise slam a fixed bumper. The adjustable cushion lets you dial in the end-of-stroke deceleration, but remember it only slows the piston near the endcap and never acts as a lock. If a power loss drops your air pressure, the rod will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to suspend a load safely.
The U-type rear cover provides a 90-degree mounting pivot for compact machinery layouts. Because this exact model has no internal magnet, position sensing is impossible here; order the -S variant if your control system requires CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. You can also adapt the body using LB foot mounts, FA flanges, SDB pivot blocks or TC trunnions.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male 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 the -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. You must order the -S variant for position sensing. The adjustable air cushion at both ends only serves to decelerate the load near stroke end and does not lock or hold the rod in place.
