The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X305SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 305mm 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.
Tune out end-of-stroke bang with the AirTAC MIC25X305SCA, a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built with a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mild washdown resistance. It uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface, making it a drop-in spares win for standard mini brackets, and features a CA pivot rear cover. A 1/8" port feeds the 10 mm piston rod (M10x1.25 male thread).
At 0.5 MPa this 25 mm bore pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N, peaking at a 50 kgf theoretical max at 1.0 MPa. The defining trait over a bumper MI is the adjustable air cushion at both ends: you dial a needle valve to decelerate the 305 mm stroke at high speed, protecting the load and cutting noise. For sizing, this translates to a safe working load of roughly 147 N, lifting about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The -S suffix means a built-in magnet is present for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches.

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.
Routes small cartons at 30-800 mm/s without slamming, using the adjustable cushion to soften the 245.3 N push impact at the end of the 305 mm travel.
Raises lightweight jigs weighing up to 12.5 kg, relying on the stainless build for humid environments and the CA pivot to manage side loads.
Applies a controlled 206.1 N pull force at 0.5 MPa to seat components, dialing in the end cushion to protect delicate tooling from shock.
If your payload is lighter, the MIC20X50 class drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N, whereas stepping up to the MIC32 bore raises it to 402.2 N for heavier moving masses. Choose this 25 mm bore when cycle speeds demand the adjustable air cushion to prevent harsh impacts. Remember that the cushion only decelerates near the stroke end; it does not lock the rod. If you need to hold a load vertically during air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. Mount it via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion, and use the -S magnet with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for end-position confirmation.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 343.4 N and pulls 288.5 N, with a theoretical max of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is 1/8" and the male rod thread is M10x1.25.
The MIC25X305SCA features an adjustable air cushion at both ends that decelerates the piston near stroke end to reduce shock, but it is not a locking brake. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet, allowing you to mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for position detection.
