The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X20CM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 20mm 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.
Tame high-speed end-of-stroke shock with the AirTAC MIC25X20CM, a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built with a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mild washdown resistance. Because this Ø25 bore carries an adjustable air cushion at both ends, you can dial in the needle valve to decelerate heavy loads smoothly rather than slamming into a fixed bumper. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini-cylinder brackets, features a 20 mm stroke, and uses a 1/8" port with an M10x1.25 male rod thread.
In force terms, the bore generates 245.3 N of push and 206.1 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, peaking at a theoretical 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For practical sizing, that translates to a safe working load of roughly 147 N, or enough to lift about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note that this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position 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 knock finished plastic parts out of a molding die rapidly without slamming the rear cover.
Snaps a lightweight deflector gate into place on a packaging line, relying on the adjustable cushion to soften the 20 mm stroke impact.
Halts small cardboard cartons on a roller conveyor; the stainless build resists dust and the cushion prevents denting the boxes.
When sizing this 20 mm stroke unit, consider stepping down to the MIC20 if your load is lighter—it yields 157 N push at 0.5 MPa—or moving up to the MIC32, which provides 402 N push if you need more muscle. The adjustable cushion is most valuable when cycling near the 800 mm/s upper speed limit or moving enough mass that a hard stop would damage the tooling. Keep in mind the cushion only decelerates the load near the stroke end; it is not a brake. If the machine loses air, the piston will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold position. The CM round back cover suits compact rear mounting, and you must specify an -S variant if your control system requires sensors.
Quick checklist
This Ø25 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" air 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.
This specific SKU does not have the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches; you would need the -S variant for sensing. The adjustable air cushion at both ends lets you turn a needle screw to bleed trapped air, decelerating the piston smoothly at high speeds to reduce shock and noise.
