About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X50CA
Delivering 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder is built for rapid cycling. The defining feature of the MIC series is the adjustable air cushion at both ends. By turning a needle valve, you tune the end-of-stroke deceleration to absorb shock and reduce noise at high speeds, outperforming fixed bumper designs.
The Ø25 bore uses a 1/8" port and a 10 mm piston rod with an M10x1.25 male thread. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, ensuring compatibility with standard mini-cylinder brackets. This specific CA variant features a rear pivot clevis. With a 245.3 N push rating, it handles a safe working load of roughly 147 N, lifting about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note this SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept position sensors.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X50CA Is Used
High-Speed Diverter
Snaps products off a fast belt using 245.3 N of push force, relying on the adjustable air cushion to stop the 50 mm stroke smoothly without slamming.
Carton Flap Folder
Folds heavy cardboard flaps on a washdown line; the stainless barrel resists moisture while the CA clevis allows angular self-alignment.
Vertical Lift Gate
Raises a 12 kg access panel vertically, safely within the 2:1 load margin, with the needle cushion preventing end-impact at high speed.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X50CA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 50 mm stroke unit, compare it directly with adjacent bores. Dropping to the Ø20 bore reduces the 0.5 MPa push force to 157.0 N, while stepping up to the Ø32 bore increases it to 402.2 N. Choose this Ø25 model when your application demands the higher 245.3 N thrust combined with high-speed actuation where the adjustable cushion is essential to prevent impact damage.
The air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If the air supply drops, the cylinder will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve for suspended loads. For mounting, the built-in CA rear clevis suits pivot applications, and you can use LB foot or FA flange brackets. Because this base SKU has no magnet, adding CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches requires switching to the -S variant.
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 MIC25X50CA FAQ
This double-acting cylinder uses a 1/8" port and generates 245.3 N push / 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 343.4 N push / 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet. To use CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches, you must select the -S magnet variant. The adjustable air cushion and stainless steel construction are standard across the series.
