Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X500CM
The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X500CM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 500mm 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.

About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X500CM
Delivering 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder handles long 500 mm strokes with precision. The CM round rear cover keeps ports and mounting neatly oriented at the back. Because the bore is Ø25, it uses the standard ISO 6432 mini-cylinder mounting interface, dropping cleanly into existing brackets and clevises.
A defining trait of the MIC series is the adjustable air cushion at both ends, letting you dial in a needle valve to absorb end-of-stroke shock at high speeds rather than relying on a fixed bumper. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. For sizing, this bore yields a safe working load of about 147 N, lifting roughly 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X500CM Is Used
Long-Stroke Diverting
Pushes packages across a 500 mm conveyor gap using 245.3 N of thrust, with the adjustable cushion halting the rod smoothly at high transit speeds.
Carton Flap Folding
Extends fully to fold large carton flaps, relying on the stainless steel construction to endure mildly humid or washdown packaging plant conditions.
Vertical Tray Lifting
Hoists component trays weighing up to 12.5 kg vertically, using the ISO 6432 mounting interface to bolt directly into standard machine clevises.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X500CM the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 500 mm stroke unit, stepping down to the Ø20 bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N, while stepping up to the Ø32 bore increases it to 402 N. Choose this Ø25 model when moving loads near its 12.5 kg vertical lift capacity at high speeds, where tuning the dual-end adjustable air cushion prevents harsh impacts. The 1/8" port matches the bore standard.
Remember the cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it is not a brake. If air pressure drops, the piston will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve for suspended loads. Without the -S magnet option, position sensing is unavailable on this unit. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion.
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 MIC25X500CM FAQ
This double-acting cylinder has a 25 mm bore, a 500 mm stroke, and a 1/8" port. 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. The male rod thread is M10x1.25.
No, this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. Additionally, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end to reduce shock; it is not a lock or brake. The piston will drift on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold suspended loads.
