The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X225SCM 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.
Dialing in end-of-stroke deceleration is effortless with the AirTAC MIC25X225SCM, thanks to its needle-adjustable air cushions at both ends that absorb high-speed shock. This double-acting round-body mini cylinder features a stainless-steel barrel and piston rod, providing reliable mild corrosion resistance for washdown environments. It uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface, dropping directly into standard mini brackets and clevises.
Delivering a push force of 245.3 N and a pull force of 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa, it handles robust loads with a safe working capacity around 147 N. The built-in -S piston magnet supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches. Featuring a 25 mm bore, a 225 mm stroke, a 1/8" port, and a CM round rear cover for straightforward port orientation, it lifts about 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.
Swiftly routes parcels on a sorting line where the adjustable cushion prevents harsh slams during high-speed stroke endings.
Drives sealing heads on a packaging conveyor, using the 245.3 N push force to close flaps smoothly without crushing the cardboard.
Actuates small loading ramps, safely lifting about 12.5 kg vertically while the stainless build resists humid dock environments.
When sizing this 245.3 N push force unit, stepping down to the MIC20 gives 157.0 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the MIC32 provides 402.2 N. Choose this 25 mm bore when moving moderate masses at high speeds where the adjustable cushion is critical to prevent impact damage. The 1/8" port and 30-800 mm/s speed range accommodate rapid cycling. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion brackets.
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, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for secure load holding. The -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position feedback.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder features a 1/8" port and generates a push force of 245.3 N and a pull force of 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 343.4 N and the pull force is 288.5 N. It has a theoretical maximum force of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke to reduce shock; it is not a brake or lock. The piston will drift if air pressure is lost, so an external rod lock or pilot check valve is required for load holding. The -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors for position detection.
