The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X25CA is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 25mm 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.
Designed for rapid 25 mm strokes, the AirTAC MIC25X25CA is a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built from stainless steel for mild washdown resistance. A needle-set variable air cushion at both ends absorbs high-speed end-of-travel impact, protecting your payload far better than a fixed bumper. The rear CA pivot cover simplifies clevis mounting, while the 1/8" port keeps airflow compact.
Delivering 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this ISO 6432 unit handles a safe working load of roughly 147 N. That translates to lifting about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG position switches without upgrading to the -S variant.

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.
Ideal for gripping components on an automated line, using the 245 N thrust to hold parts firmly during machining without end-of-stroke shock.
Executes rapid 25 mm diverting strokes on packaging conveyors where the needle-set air cushion silently absorbs the high-speed impact of repeated cycling.
Functions as a compact pallet stop gate, using its stainless construction to withstand mildly humid warehouse environments while halting 12 kg loads smoothly.
When sizing this 25 mm bore, dropping down to the MIC20X50 yields 157 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the MIC32 provides 402 N if your payload exceeds 147 N. The adjustable cushion matters most when cycling at high speeds or moving heavy masses, as it prevents harsh mechanical banging. Keep in mind the cushion only decelerates the load near the stroke end; it will not hold position on air loss. For vertical or suspended loads that must not drift, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. Mount this CA-cover model via a rear clevis, and choose the -S magnet version if you need sensors.
Quick checklist
This double-acting 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 sensing. The adjustable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the load near the stroke end and does not act as a brake or lock.
