The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC40X200SUTC is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 200mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Delivering 628.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, the MIC40X200SUTC is a robust double-acting round-body mini cylinder built for demanding motion tasks. Its stainless-steel barrel and Ø16 mm piston rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. A 1/4" port feeds the chamber, while the U back cover provides a 90-degree mounting orientation. Equipped with an -S piston magnet, it supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors for precise end-of-stroke detection.
Twin adjustable air cushions at both ends allow you to needle-set the deceleration, soaking up high-speed kinetic energy to protect your payload and cut noise. This makes it highly effective for moving heavier loads, offering a safe working load of about 377 N or lifting roughly 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The cushion only decelerates near the stroke end; it does not lock the rod.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MI/MIC (ISO 6432) datasheet. Barrel & rod: stainless steel (round-body, riveted construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G. Note: the Ø40 bore is a larger, non-ISO-6432 size.

| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

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 heavy cartons across high-speed sorting lines where the adjustable cushion prevents harsh slams that could damage packaging.
Lowers approximately 32 kg payloads smoothly, using the needle-set cushion to absorb gravitational kinetic energy at the stroke end.
Applies consistent 628.3 N clamping force at 0.5 MPa for light assembly or palletizing tasks, with the -S magnet confirming cycle completion.
When sizing this 40 mm bore, stepping down to a MIC32 yields 402.2 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas no larger MIC bore exists. Choose this 40 mm model when moving substantial mass at high speeds where fixed bumpers would fail. The TC trunnion mount pairs with the U back cover for complex pivot geometries.
Remember that a standard cylinder drifts when air pressure drops, as the air cushion provides deceleration only, not a braking lock. For vertical or suspended loads that must hold position on air loss, integrate an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" port and an M12x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum force of 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end and does not act as a brake; the cylinder will drift on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold suspended loads.
