About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC40X35SCM
Delivering 628.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this 40 mm bore double-acting actuator brings adjustable air cushioning to heavy-duty mini cylinder tasks. The stainless-steel round barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments, while the needle-set cushions at both ends absorb end-of-stroke shock to protect your payload at high cycling speeds. Equipped with a CM round rear cover, it uses a 1/4 inch port and an M12x1.25 male rod thread.
With a theoretical maximum output of 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa, this model is built for substantial work. A practical computed insight shows a safe working load of roughly 377 N, translating to a vertical lift capacity of about 32 kg when applying a 2:1 safety margin. The integrated -S piston magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor switches for position detection.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC40X35SCM Is Used
Heavy Carton Diversion
Uses the 628.3 N push force to positively deflect heavy packaged goods on a high-speed sorting line without end-of-stroke slamming.
Parts Ejection Press
Rapidly ejects dense machined metal components, relying on the adjustable air cushion to silently absorb the sudden deceleration.
Vertical Pallet Lift
Lifts approximately 32 kg of stacked product vertically with a 2:1 safety margin, benefiting from the stainless build in humid settings.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC40X35SCM the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, stepping down to the MIC32 bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 402.2 N, whereas this 40 mm bore provides 628.3 N; no larger MIC bore exists, so for loads exceeding 879.6 N at 0.7 MPa you must switch to a different cylinder family. Select this model specifically when operating at high speeds up to 800 mm/s where the adjustable end cushions are essential to prevent impact damage.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end and does not function as a brake. If your application must hold a vertical load during air loss or valve centering, the piston will drift, requiring an external rod lock or 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 MIC40X35SCM FAQ
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4 inch 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 of 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end and is not a locking brake; an external rod lock or pilot check valve is needed to hold loads on air loss. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it fully supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensor switches.
