Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X250U
The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X250U is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 250mm 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 MIC25X250U
Soaking up end-of-stroke shock at high speeds, the AirTAC MIC25X250U relies on a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends to protect your payload. This double-acting, round-body stainless steel mini cylinder pushes with 245.3 N and pulls with 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa, conforming to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard brackets. The U rear cover provides a 90-degree port orientation for tight layouts.
With a 25 mm bore and 250 mm stroke, it moves a 10 mm piston rod via a 1/8" port. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown. For vertical moves, expect a safe lift of about 12.5 kg using a 2:1 margin. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot take CMSG or DMSG switches; choose the -S variant for sensing.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X250U Is Used
Package Diverting
Uses the 245.3 N push force to redirect parcels on a high-speed line, relying on the adjustable air cushion to stop the 250 mm stroke quietly without jarring the belt.
Carton Sealing
Drives a sealing head up and down continuously, where the needle-set cushion absorbs the repeated end-of-stroke impact to prolong machine life.
Vertical Lift Gate
Lifts a 12.5 kg access flap on a storage cabinet, using the U rear cover for a 90-degree port feed in a confined overhead space.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X250U the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 245.3 N push class, dropping down to the MIC20 moves you to 157.0 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the MIC32 yields 402.2 N. The adjustable cushion matters most when cycling heavy loads near the 800 mm/s limit, as it decelerates the mass smoothly instead of slamming it. Remember the cushion only eases the stop; it is not a brake.
If air pressure drops, the piston will drift because a standard cylinder does not hold position, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for suspended loads. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion blocks. Because this specific SKU has no -S magnet, position sensing is unavailable unless you switch to the magnet-equipped version.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
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 MIC25X250U FAQ
This 25 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" port and a 10 mm rod with an M10x1.25 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, this specific SKU does not include a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must select the -S variant for position sensing. The stainless steel build and adjustable air cushion at both ends remain identical.
