The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X125SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 125mm 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 demanding 125 mm stroke tasks. The Ø25 bore conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, dropping directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises. A built-in piston magnet enables position sensing with CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
Unlike standard bumper models, the MIC series features an 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. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. With a 1/8" port and M10x1.25 male rod thread, it provides a safe working load of about 147 N, lifting roughly 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

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 N thrust to push packages at 800 mm/s, relying on the adjustable air cushion to prevent harsh slams when reversing direction.
Moves a 125 mm stroke to fold flaps, where the needle-set deceleration protects the stainless rod and assembly from repetitive shock damage.
The stainless construction handles mild moisture, while the ISO 6432 dimensions make it easy to mount the cylinder in compact scientific enclosures.
When sizing this 125 mm stroke unit, stepping down to a MIC20 bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N, while stepping up to a MIC32 raises it to 402 N. Choose this Ø25 model when your application requires moderate thrust at high cycling speeds where the adjustable end cushions can be finely tuned to prevent harsh impacts. The CM round rear cover provides specific port and mounting orientation for compact assemblies.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a lock or brake. If air pressure drops, the piston will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure load holding. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it is fully ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder has 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, 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum force of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end and acts purely as a shock absorber, not a brake. If air pressure is lost, the piston will drift, so you must use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load.
