About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC40X60CM
Delivering 628.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this 40 mm bore double-acting actuator is built for heavier mini-cylinder tasks. The stainless-steel round barrel and Ø16 mm piston rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. It carries a 1/4" port and an M12x1.25 male rod thread. A rear CM cover provides specific mounting and port orientation for compact machinery.
Twin adjustable air cushions distinguish this unit from standard bumper models, letting you needle-set the deceleration to silence end-of-stroke banging at high cycling speeds. For vertical lifts, it handles about 32 kg safely with a 2:1 margin. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors without switching to the -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 MIC40X60CM Is Used
Heavy Carton Diversion
Uses the 628.3 N push force to deflect heavy packaged goods on a high-speed sorting line, relying on the tuned air cushion to stop the rod smoothly without slamming.
Vertical Flap Folding
Drives a folding mechanism on a packaging machine where the adjustable cushion prevents jarring impacts at the bottom of the 60 mm stroke, protecting the mechanical linkage.
Pallet Stopper Gate
Acts as a robust stop gate for loaded pallet rollers, using its stainless construction to endure dusty industrial environments while absorbing the shock of arriving loads.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC40X60CM the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 40 mm unit, dropping down to the MIC32 bore reduces the 0.5 MPa push force to 402.2 N, while no larger MIC bore exists above this. Choose this 40 mm class when moving heavier masses at high velocities where the adjustable end-cushions are essential to prevent impact damage. The cushion only decelerates the load near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake. Because a plain double-acting cylinder drifts when air pressure drops, integrate an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you must hold a suspended load safely in place. 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 MIC40X60CM FAQ
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.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet and therefore cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You would need the -S magnet variant for sensing. The stainless build resists mild corrosion, and the needle-set air cushions at both ends decelerate the load near stroke end but do not lock or hold the position.
