The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X265SU is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 265mm 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.
Tame high-speed end-of-stroke impacts with the AirTAC MIC25X265SU, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder equipped with needle-adjustable air cushions at both ends. This double-acting actuator conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for Ø25 bores, dropping cleanly into standard mini brackets and clevises. The 265 mm stroke falls well within the 500 mm standard limit, while the U-type back cover provides a 90-degree port and mounting orientation for tight machinery layouts. A built-in piston magnet (-S) enables direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
Generating 245.3 N of push force and 206.1 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, this unit is sized for moderate automation tasks. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. For vertical moves, the 245.3 N output translates to a safe working load of about 147 N, meaning it lifts roughly 12.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. It uses a 1/8" port and a 10 mm rod with an M10x1.25 male thread.

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.
Handles the 265 mm stroke to push medium-weight cartons off a high-speed belt, relying on the adjustable air cushions to prevent harsh slamming at full extension.
Lifts packaging flaps weighing up to 12.5 kg with a 2:1 margin, using the U-type 90-degree back cover to fit compact folder profiles while the magnet tracks position.
Opens and closes stainless dispensing gates in washdown zones, where the corrosion-resistant build and 245 N push force reliably clear bulk parts.
When sizing this 25 mm bore, stepping down to an MIC20 drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N, whereas moving up to an MIC32 raises it to 402 N. Choose this 265 mm stroke model for mid-range travel where cycle speeds hit the 30-800 mm/s band and the adjustable needle cushions are required to decelerate the mass smoothly. The cushions only slow the piston near the stroke ends; they do not function as a brake. If the machinery requires the load to hold position during a compressed air loss, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The -S magnet allows sensor tracking, and you can pair the body with LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion mounts.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder uses a 1/8" port and a 10 mm piston rod with an M10x1.25 male 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, the needle-set air cushions only decelerate the piston near the end of the stroke and do not act as a brake. The piston will drift on air loss. To hold a vertical load, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve. The -S magnet supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors.
