Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X225SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X225SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 225mm 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.

About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X225SCA
Built around a 25 mm bore and a 225 mm stroke, the AirTAC MIC25X225SCA is a double-acting, round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder engineered for rapid cycling. It pushes with 245.3 N and pulls with 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa. Because this bore falls within the Ø8-Ø25 range, it conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, dropping cleanly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises. The -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet, allowing you to bolt on CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed or electronic switches for exact end-of-stroke detection.
The defining feature of this series is the adjustable air cushion at both ends. Instead of relying on a fixed rubber bumper, you set a cushion needle to decelerate the load smoothly right before the stroke ends, drastically reducing shock and noise at high speeds. The stainless-steel barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. For sizing tasks, this bore yields a safe working load of roughly 147 N (about 60 percent of the 0.5 MPa push force), meaning it lifts about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Air connects via a 1/8" port, and the CA rear cover provides a pivot clevis for articulated mounting.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X225SCA Is Used
Package Diverting
Handles 12.5 kg cartons at high cycle rates on a sorting line, using the adjustable cushion to softly stop the stroke and protect the packaging.
Light Press Assembly
Delivers 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa to seat bearings or pins, relying on the stainless build to endure light coolant splash.
Vertical Lift Gates
Raises and lowers access flaps with a 225 mm stroke, requiring the ISO 6432 clevis mount and the -S magnet for top-position confirmation.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X225SCA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, look both ways: stepping down to the MIC20 drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N, while moving up to the MIC32 raises it to 402 N. Choose this 25 mm bore when your payload sits in that mid-range sweet spot and you need the adjustable cushion to tame high-speed end-of-stroke impacts. The cushion needle only decelerates the piston near the end of travel; it is not a brake. If your application must hold a load vertically during a loss of air pressure or a centered valve, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The CA back cover clevis pairs with LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion hardware, and the -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist

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 MIC25X225SCA FAQ
This double-acting cylinder pushes with 245.3 N and pulls with 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" air port and a 10 mm piston rod with an M10x1.25 male thread.
The MIC features an adjustable air cushion at both ends; you turn a needle valve to decelerate the piston near stroke end, cutting shock at speeds up to 800 mm/s. This cushion is not a lock or brake. The cylinder will drift on air loss, so use a pilot check valve or external rod lock to hold a suspended load.
