The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X150CA is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 150mm 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 150 mm strokes with precision. The defining feature of the MIC series is the adjustable air cushion at both ends, letting you dial in a needle valve to absorb high-speed end-of-stroke shock, protecting your payload and reducing noise compared to fixed bumper designs. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments.
With a 25 mm bore, it uses a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. This model drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets via its ISO 6432 mounting interface. For vertical lifting, it handles about 12.5 kg safely with a 2:1 margin. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors without upgrading to the -S variant. The CA back cover provides a rear pivot mount for angular alignment.

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 adjustable air cushion to smoothly route 10 kg cartons at 700 mm/s without slamming at the 150 mm stroke end.
Leverages the 245.3 N push force to fold heavy packaging materials, relying on the CA pivot to absorb side loads.
Pushes parts onto pallets in damp environments, utilizing the stainless steel construction for mild corrosion resistance.
When sizing this 25 mm bore, step down to the MIC20 (157 N push @0.5 MPa) for lighter loads, or step up to the MIC32 (402 N push @0.5 MPa) if you need more thrust. The adjustable air cushion is essential here if you are running near the 800 mm/s maximum speed or moving heavy masses, as it prevents harsh end-of-stroke impacts. Choose LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion mounts to suit your frame.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If air pressure drops, the piston will drift and cannot hold position. For suspended or vertical loads that must remain fixed during air loss, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Because this base SKU has no magnet, order an -S version if you require position sensing.
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 a magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must select the -S magnet variant for position sensing. The adjustable air cushions at both ends only decelerate the load near stroke end and do not lock or hold the piston in place.
