About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X260SCA
Delivering 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder handles demanding 260 mm strokes. The Ø25 bore conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions, dropping cleanly into standard mini-cylinder brackets. A built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches.
Twin adjustable air cushions at both ends let you needle-set the deceleration to eliminate end-of-stroke shock at high cycling speeds. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. With a practical vertical lift capacity of about 12.5 kg using a 2:1 safety margin, it integrates easily via the rear CA pivot clevis and 1/8 inch port.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X260SCA Is Used
High-Speed Diverting
Cushions absorb the impact of rapidly routing 12 kg cartons at 800 mm/s on packaging lines, reducing wear and mechanical noise.
Pouch Sealing Press
Provides 245.3 N of smooth clamping force at 0.5 MPa to seal flexible pouches, with the CA pivot accommodating slight misalignment.
Parts Ejection
Ejects machined components from a washdown station, utilizing the stainless rod construction to resist mild corrosion and coolant spray.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X260SCA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 260 mm stroke unit, consider stepping down to the MIC20 bore if your load requires less force (157 N push at 0.5 MPa), or moving up to the MIC32 for heavier payloads (402 N push at 0.5 MPa). The adjustable cushion is essential when operating at high speeds or moving substantial mass, as it protects the mechanism from impact damage.
Note that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If the air supply drops, the piston will drift, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for secure load holding. The -S magnet enables sensor tracking, and you can select LB, FA, SDB, or TC mounts alongside the CA rear cover.
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 MIC25X260SCA FAQ
This Ø25 mm cylinder features a 1/8 inch port and an M10x1.25 male rod 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.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet compatible with CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches. The variable air cushions at both ends use a needle valve to trap exhaust air, decelerating the piston smoothly at stroke end to reduce shock, though they do not lock the load.
