The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC25X60SUTC is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 60mm 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 60 mm stroke tasks. The defining feature of the MIC series is the adjustable air cushion at both ends, allowing you to tune a needle valve to absorb end-of-stroke shock at high speeds, protecting your payload and reducing noise compared to fixed bumper models. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Because this is a 25 mm bore, it conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, dropping directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises.
This specific configuration includes a built-in piston magnet (the -S suffix), enabling direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and electronic sensors for position confirmation. It features a U-type back cover for 90-degree port orientation and comes with a TC trunnion mount. Operating at speeds from 30 to 800 mm/s, it provides a safe working load of roughly 147 N (about 60% of its 0.5 MPa push force) and lifts about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The air port is 1/8" and the male rod thread is M10x1.25.

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.
Uses the 245 N thrust and tuned end-cushions to rapidly push parcels off a belt without slamming, leveraging the TC trunnion for smooth pivot action.
Cycles at up to 800 mm/s to fold heavy cardboard flaps, relying on the adjustable needle to soften the impact and prevent crushing the packaging.
The stainless construction withstands wipe-down chemicals, while the 12.5 kg vertical lift capacity easily moves loaded sample racks between stations.
When sizing this 25 mm bore, stepping down to a 20 mm MIC drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N, while stepping up to a 32 mm bore increases it to 402 N. Choose this 25 mm model when your application requires moving moderate loads at high cycling speeds where the adjustable air cushion is essential to prevent end-of-stroke impact. The TC trunnion bracket supplied with this unit is ideal for pivoting loads that require self-aligning angular movement.
Note that the adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it is not a brake. If your system loses air, the piston will drift, so you must add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a suspended load safely. This SKU includes the -S magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches; a non-S SKU cannot accept sensors.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder has a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 245.3 N and pulls with 206.1 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 343.4 N and pulls 288.5 N. 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 and acts purely as a shock absorber, not a brake. If air is lost, the piston will drift. You must use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a load vertically.
