About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC40X350SCM
Delivering robust linear motion, this double-acting round-body mini cylinder features a stainless-steel barrel and rod that resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. The MIC40X350SCM uses a variable air cushion at both ends; turning a needle valve lets you dial in the deceleration to soak up high-speed shock, protecting the load and cutting noise far better than a fixed bumper.
In the 40mm bore class, the 16mm piston rod and 1/4" port handle serious work, generating 628.3N of push force at 0.5MPa. That translates to a safe working load of about 377N, or roughly 32kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 safety margin. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches, while the CM round rear cover provides specific port and mounting orientation.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC40X350SCM Is Used
High-Speed Package Diverting
Uses the 879.6N push force at 0.7MPa to swiftly route heavy cartons, with the adjustable cushion absorbing the shock of rapid direction changes.
Vertical Pallet Lifting
Raises components weighing up to 32kg against gravity, relying on the stainless construction for reliable performance in damp washdown zones.
Heavy Chuck Indexing
Shifts substantial machining fixtures across a 350mm span, tuning the needle valve to bring the mass to a smooth, jolt-free stop.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC40X350SCM the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 40mm bore, stepping down to a MIC32 drops the 0.5MPa push force to 402.2N, whereas no larger MIC bore exists. Choose this 40mm option when moving heavier masses at high speeds where the adjustable end-of-stroke cushioning is critical to prevent impact damage. If your application requires the cylinder to hold position during air loss, note that the piston will drift; the cushion only decelerates the stroke end and acts as no brake, so specify an external rod lock or pilot check valve for secure load holding.
Mounting flexibility includes LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot and TC trunnion brackets. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can directly mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors for position detection.
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 MIC40X350SCM FAQ
This 40mm bore, double-acting cylinder has a 16mm rod, a 1/4" port and an M12x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 628.3N push and 527.8N pull at 0.5MPa, or 879.6N push and 738.9N pull at 0.7MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1kgf at 1.0MPa, with an operating speed of 30-800mm/s.
No, the piston will drift if air pressure is lost. The variable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the load near the stroke end to reduce shock; it does not function as a lock or brake. To maintain position, you must install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
