The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X380SU is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 380mm 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.
Delivering 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder handles demanding 380 mm strokes. The adjustable air cushion at both ends lets you dial in the deceleration needle to absorb high-speed end-of-stroke shock, protecting your payload while cutting noise. A built-in piston magnet enables position sensing with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. It uses a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. Based on the 0.5 MPa push rating, this bore yields a safe working load of roughly 147 N, meaning it lifts about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The U-style rear cover provides a 90-degree mounting orientation for compact footprint integration.

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.
Pushes light-to-moderate cartons across a belt at 800 mm/s, relying on the adjustable air cushion to stop the 380 mm travel without slamming.
Lifts a 12.5 kg packaging mechanism safely using the 245.3 N push force, with the U back cover allowing a tidy 90-degree mount.
Stainless steel construction withstands mild cleaning chemicals while the CMSG sensor tracks the piston through the 380 mm stroke.
If you need less force, the MIC20X50 class drops to 157 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the MIC32 bore increases push to 402.2 N at 0.5 MPa. Choose this Ø25 bore when moving moderate masses along the 380 mm travel at high speeds, as the needle-set air cushion becomes critical to prevent impact damage. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini-cylinder brackets.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not lock or hold the load. If air pressure drops, the piston will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for suspended loads. The -S suffix means the magnet is present for sensors, and you can mount it via LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder uses a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 rod thread. It generates 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 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. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke; it is not a brake or lock. If air pressure is lost, the piston will drift. You must use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load.
