About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC40X350CM
Delivering robust linear motion, the AirTAC MIC40X350CM is a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built with a stainless-steel barrel and rod to withstand mild corrosion and washdown environments. It features a CM round rear cover and a 350 mm stroke, driven by a 16 mm piston rod with an M12x1.25 male thread. A 1/4" port supplies air, operating between 0.15 and 1.0 MPa.
This unit delivers 628.3 N of push force and 527.8 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, yielding a safe working load of roughly 377 N or a vertical lift capacity of about 32 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. The defining trait of the MIC series is its adjustable air cushion at both ends: a needle valve lets you dial in deceleration to absorb end-of-stroke shock at high speeds, protecting the payload and reducing noise. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors without upgrading to an -S variant.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø40mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 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.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC40X350CM Is Used
High-Speed Package Diverting
Uses the 879.6 N push force at 0.7 MPa to push heavy cartons off a main belt at high speed, relying on the adjustable cushion to prevent end-of-stroke impact damage.
Vertical Material Lowering
Safely lowers loads up to 32 kg, with the needle-set air cushion decelerating the descent smoothly before the bottom of the 350 mm stroke.
Washdown Component Pushing
The stainless steel round-body construction resists mild corrosion in damp food or chemical packaging lines while shifting heavy manifolds along the assembly path.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC40X350CM the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 40 mm bore, stepping down to an MIC32X50 yields 402.2 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas no larger MIC bore exists in this mini cylinder range. The adjustable cushion is essential if you are moving heavy loads at high velocities up to 800 mm/s, as it prevents harsh impacts. Keep in mind the cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake or lock. If your application must hold a load vertically during air loss, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion brackets.
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 MIC40X350CM FAQ
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" air port and an M12x1.25 male rod thread. At 0.5 MPa it provides 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet, so it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches. You would need the -S variant for sensing. The adjustable air cushion at both ends handles deceleration, but note it is not a locking mechanism.
