About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X120SCA
Delivering 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, the AirTAC MIC25X120SCA is a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built for demanding motion tasks. It features a stainless-steel barrel and piston rod to resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. The built-in CA rear pivot cover simplifies clevis mounting, while the 1/8 inch port supplies air efficiently to the 10 mm rod.
A defining trait of this series is the adjustable air cushion at both ends, letting you dial in needle settings to absorb end-of-stroke shock at high speeds. This protects your payload and reduces noise compared to fixed bumper models. For practical sizing, it yields a safe working load of roughly 147 N, lifting about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The -S designation adds a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensing.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X120SCA Is Used
Package Diverting
Uses the 245.3 N push force to push cartons off a high-speed belt, relying on adjustable cushions to stop the 120 mm stroke smoothly without slamming.
Clamshell Sealing
Provides steady clamping pressure for light packaging presses, where the stainless build resists occasional washdowns and the CA pivot self-aligns.
Small Part Ejection
Ejects machined components from a fixture at speed; the needle-set cushion absorbs the shock of the sudden stop to protect delicate parts.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X120SCA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 25 mm bore, stepping down to an MIC20 gives 157 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to an MIC32 provides 402 N. Choose this 120 mm stroke model when moving loads at high speeds where the adjustable end cushions actively decelerate the piston to prevent impact damage. It operates between 30 and 800 mm/s.
Remember that the air cushion only slows the piston near the stroke end and does not function as a lock or brake. If your system loses air, the piston will drift, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for secure load holding. You can mount it via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion, and the CA cover provides a rear clevis pivot.
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 MIC25X120SCA FAQ
This double-acting cylinder pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, it pushes 343.4 N and pulls 288.5 N. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a 1/8 inch air port and a 10 mm piston rod with an M10x1.25 male thread.
Yes, the -S option includes a piston magnet compatible with CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches. The variable air cushion at both ends uses a needle valve to decelerate the piston near stroke end, reducing shock. It is not a braking device, so the cylinder will drift if air pressure is lost.
